- Plug and Play installs in seconds

plug-in mains device. They are great for table lamps, radios, washing
machines. Even use one to turn your pond fountain on and off for you !

There's no re-wiring to do. Simply set the X10 address, un-plug the device
you want to control, plug it into the module, and plug
the module into your mains socket. You instantly have X10 control of the
device.
The Appliance Module is for higher rated lights and other household products
like dish washers, kettles, etc. The Appliance Module can switch loads of
up to 13 Amps.
Use in conjunction with an X10 transmitter like a
IR7243
,
CM12U
,
Mini Timer
,
MC10
, or
SM10
. You can also use an
RF based solution (
HR10
,
MS13
,
KR22
, or
SS13
) as long as you also have a
TM13 RF Receiver module.
Please note that the AM12U should not be used with low wattage
lighting, like LEDs, because the module has a "feature" which allows a small
amount of current to flow through the module even when it is powered off.
This used to allow manual "on" control of the module, by physically turning
the attached (table) lamp on, off, on. Because of this, when used with low
wattage lighting, the lights will always be on

Works good but I preferred the 2027UK because you could manually turn on and off locally

Purchased these for low energy light bulbs. The low energy bulbs I had (Phillips) were flashing/flickering all the time even when they were switched off but searched the internet for answers and have solved it different makes of bulb I have replaced them
