There are news groups which deal with nothing but home automation:
comp.home.automation and alt.home.automation.

But just a little bit of warning about these groups. It appears that lots
of the people complain about the deficiencies of X10 devices, the problems
they are having and not so much about the praise/success of X10. HA, a lot
like some of the posts in this group.

Check into X10 devices. These can be programmed to activate and

Seems like I remember reading about those years ago associated with
home automation systems? Will check it out thanks!
