They cost $10 each and only control a single valve. So I would need to
spend $80 to control 8 valves, and power each module individually.
Or for $50 I could buy one of these instead:

They are wireless, so that's an advantage right? I think at $5 each, I
would consider the X10 modules. Am I missing something?
