    Smarthome recently obtained a huge quantity of these Freewire systems and is offering them to our customers for a blowout price! This starter kit includes a messenger hub and an indoor remote as well as a lamp module and two outdoor receivers. The messenger hub is the brain of your expandable Freewire system that doubles as a lamp module, so you'll actually be able to control four separate incandescent lamps with this starter system.

    When plugged into an AC outlet, the messenger hub has the ability to receive RF signals from the indoor remote and relays these wireless messages to any Freewire receiver dialed to the same house code, even outdoor receivers. You can also add modules to operate additional indoor lights, outdoor lights, and small appliances and electronics; other than those included in this kit, additional modules are sold separately.

    Control lighting and small electronics throughout your home all from the palm of your hand using the included indoor remote, which even comes with a mountable holder. The indoor remote works with all Freewire components. This remote will turn three units and two groups on and off; it will also turn all Freewire-enabled lights and appliances on and off at once. Freewire's 256 channels and 64,000 unique codes ensure a secure system for your home.

    The indoor lamp receiver provides convenient control of incandescent lamps rated up to 300 watts. Programming these units is easy. Just set your house and unit codes using the clearly marked wheels. Remember that the house code must match on all Freewire units in your home.

    Use the two outdoor lamp receivers to control indoor or outdoor incandescent, fluorescent, halogen and low-voltage lights rated up to 500 watts. The outdoor lamp receiver does not have a code wheel, but it's still easy to program using the messenger hub. You can even use it with an extension cord. Ideal for controlling low-voltage landscape and holiday lighting, the outdoor lamp receivers are weather-resistant for outdoor use.

    Do you already use X10 components for your home's automation? The Freewire system will blend in seamlessly. All Freewire plug-in modules (indoor and outdoor lamp receivers as well as the messenger hub's built-in lamp module) can be controlled by standard X10 controllers. The indoor lamp receiver will even accept dimming commands transmitted by a standard X10 controller.

    The HomeLink Wireless Control System is a factory-installed feature packaged on many vehicle models, providing a convenient way to replace up to three handheld radio-frequency transmitters used to activate devices such as gate operators, garage door openers, entry door locks, security systems and home lighting. Freewire products are compatible with select 2001 and newer HomeLink-equipped vehicles. Programming instructions for HomeLink are included in the instruction guide for this Freewire product.

    Also available is the Black & Decker Freewire Keyfob & Receiver Kit, which contains just a keyfob remote and the messenger hub, or you can try the Black & Decker Freewire Remote, Lamp Module, Receiver, which also contains a second lamp module for another controllable lamp. Both of these kits are sold separately.

    Smarthome is the best company by far that I have dealt with on the internet. From ordering to shipping and customer service I just can't say enough good things about them. What a pleasure to do business with a company that is first rate in everything. Thank you Terry
    DAVID C -- irvine, CA   3/23/2008
    Works exactly as anticipated, and I can use my X-10 timer control for all of the different pieces that I have linked together. I need to order more!
    DAVID -- delanson, NY   12/27/2007
    Great starter kit, great price
    HAROLD -- crandall, TX   12/1/2007
    I have been using X10 controls for several years for Christmas lights but have had to wrap the receivers in plastic bags and tape and hope they didn't get wet. The lamp receivers in this kit are outdoor rated and have been much easier and worry free to set up this year; they also have worked perfectly with my X10 timer for effortless lighting control. the remote is also easy to use (but within limitted distance), although I don't have any use for it right now.
    GARY -- bowmanville, ON   10/14/2007
    Exellent value, good product
    GENE -- miami, FL   7/19/2007
    Very well designed. Built much better than other X-10 type units
    BAYARD -- rye, NY   7/4/2007
    Much more complicated to deal with than previous exper- ences with just plain X-10 devices. Have not been able to work yet
