Not Only a Switch, But a Dimmer too September 15, 2008
X10 system works by using your existing powerlines thus eliminating the need for extra wiring. The cool thing about X10 is you can control lights and appliances with a remote control similar to a TV remote. We love to do this on our Christmas lights outside the house-don't need to get out on the winter weather to unplug and plug the lights. For the remote to operate, you also need an X10 receiver (the unit with an antenna). Once you have the receiver, you can add up to 16 of these units around the house to plug in your table lamps, floor lamps, etc.
Dimming will not work on most compact fluorescent lamps. Actually, the unit is not recommended for CFL lamps, as well as a safety issue. Tried it as an experiment, worked for a few months, but considerably shortened the life of CFLs.
Pros:
Room for Improvement:
-Dimming feature is not very smooth. First few presses on your remote seems not to have any visible change. When you start to see the difference, each press results into a big change in the brightness level that you may need to press up and down to get the right balance.

 Lamp Control module works like a charm June 25, 2008
I've had x-10 controllers for years and recently needed some new one's. Took a chance the the new models would work with my old control unit and be compatable with the other modules. The new lamp control modules are not only compatable with my old equipment, they actually work even better than the old ones

We had problems getting the timer (purchased separately) to work with this module, did not have time to sort out the "bugs."

I've used these throughout the house, and I particularly like the dimming feature. It's great to be able to turn off everything with one click too.
Two cautions. These don't seem to work well with most CFL's, which aren't dim-able and don't seem to like whatever the module does to the AC power even if you don't dim. They also don't work well with my Christmas Candle lights, probably due to the embedded electronics that turn the Candles off automatically interacting with the Lamp Module's electronics. I have to walk around the house, power cycling most of the candles to make them light. Turning everything off does work, though.
I've been able to use the X10 Appliance Module with both the CFL's and the Christmas Candles, but of course you lose the dimming feature for anything else attached to them.
Otherwise, Great Product at bargain price.

I use these modules with my house alarm. I don't have to enter a dark house and it lights up the rooms on alarm activation.
