Essential Info

It's perfect for noisy appliances like refrigerators, furnaces and computer systems. This model is built with a 30:1 attenuator ratio on frequencies between 30kHz and 200kHz.

    Difficult to tell if a filter is working properly, but at least it hasn't melted like the X10 10A filter.
    SAMAR -- cupertino, CA   4/8/2012
    3 stars because it did not completely eliminate the problem. It did significantly help with noise in my line though, so I do think it is a good product.
    JACQUES -- broken arrow, OK   3/31/2012
    I was hoping this device would reduce the electrical noise generated by my treadmill. It did not make any difference at all. I cannot listen to any radio in my house while my treadmill is in use. Even battery operated radios receive the electrical noise which makes it impossible to listen.
    MIKE -- loveland, OH   1/5/2012
    Does the job well at a reasonable price.
    JAMES -- raleigh, NC   10/20/2011
    Our X10 lighting system had degraded, and we figured out (by unplugging combinations of things from the wall) that the X10 system worked perfectly when we unplugged 2 computer UPS's and 2 TVs. I bought 4 of these filters hoping they would solve the problem. The X10 system works slightly better now with the filters in place, but they didn't solve the problem.
    JAMES -- columbus, OH   10/20/2011
    A little large and hard to plug in a receptable and plug anything else in it.
    TRACY -- garner, NC   9/22/2011
    ordered 4 and everyone works perfect.stopped noise problems.
    JAMES -- west chester, OH   9/16/2011
    Does the job, but is a lot bigger than expected and isn't black anymore, like in the picture.
    RICHARD -- syosset, NY   8/1/2011
    Does exactly what it's supposed to. I'm using it on a landscape lighting "transformer" based on a switch-mode power supply which was creating a lot of noise on that particular electrical branch. Works like a charm -- very pleased.
    WOLFGANG -- silver spring, MD   7/3/2011
    That took care of the problem getting the signal back to the outlets that were interupted by a batterie power backup system, perfect.
    STAN -- napoleon, OH   4/17/2011
    If u have X10, this is a must have! My X10 devices would stop communicating in the evening - I read a Smarthome review about this device and Flat Screen TV's and decided to try them out. They work like magic!
    JEFFREY -- kennett square, PA   4/15/2011
    I have a number of these installed - they do eliminate interference. I have had several of these for 4 years and they still work.
    DONALD -- sun city cente, FL   3/21/2011
    Home has 220/110 single phase system. ONe on each phasse. Problem with lights turning on by themselves not solved. Service and delivery of product, excellent. Don
    JEAN CHARLES -- manaus, XX   3/17/2011
    did not solv my problem
    CHRIS -- wytheville, VA   2/25/2011
    Reduced the noise from my UPS' to a point they no longer interfer with my X10 signals
    ED -- fairfax, VA   1/16/2011
    Seems to work. I added 3 to the all the major electronic centers in the house and some problems resolved, some didn't. Generally I think X-10 and Insteon products remain buggy
    JASON -- fort lauderdale, FL   11/8/2010
    Works GREAT. Had to plug both my computer UPS and my home entertainment system into these since they were interfering with my TED5000 power monitor. (X10)
    FRANK -- franklin, TN   11/5/2010
    Great product. I have several and they all work perfectly to clear the noise problems. Item came in quickly and in perfect condition.
    CAMERON -- lewiston, UT   10/19/2010
    Big and bulky, but it completely eliminated noise from my entertainment system. X10 commands from and to this room now work flawlessly. Would like it better if it wasn't as big.
    ADRIAN L -- houston, TX   10/16/2010
    As far as I can tell, it does't do a thing. I bought 3 and put them on the most likely interference causes. My x10 products still don't work correctly - but I'm guessing that the x10 products are most likely the issue.
