But a doorbell transformer is a whole lot cheaper than a PC. And with my wife the WAF for PCs next to the sub-panels would be pretty low. Also, Ethernet may open up this kind of solution: http://www.amazon.com/Linksys-WET11-Wireless-Ethernet-Bridge/dp/B000066JQU Still, I'd try to run CAT5 through the attic or raised foundation. Cheaper, more reliable. However, I have no idea what the software overhead would be for a LAN version of such a project. > I also happen to have an ENJC reference design in the alarm clock! > Woot. > Ethernet-equipped alarm clocks? Wow. We aren't this modern out here. You guys probably also own a LAN-connected propane barbeque ;-) Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ "gmail" domain blocked because of excessive spam.
