doing the email now now for real

something about a wife that has 50% of the say, too. I convinced her a little too late... that and we went out shopping, had guests and other things to do. it's never the end of the world. As my brother likes to say..." I didn't have it yesterday and it's not going to change things if I don't have it tomorrow." This is a "first world problem" as my wife likes to say. no sour grapes... I WILL keep trying to fetch me up one of the Polisy units. I can wait. besides, I might even lose a little weight getting off my butt to actually hit the switch(es).

welll...once again I waited too long ... none in stock

SO the Pro wouldn't be a better option for future expansion?

Polisy Pro is what I TRIED to order... I left it open until this morning and POOF....al gone. great

I've taken the advice, both the polisy pro and 2448a7 are on order now I hope this non-software-programming 60 year old can get it done. Being a HAM, I've been keeping up with a lot and even have 3-D printing under my belt....and a little arduino. SO I imagine I can handle it. but I am getting to the age of just wanting things to work with out a ton of hassle but this Home automation stuff seems to be like HAM Radio...a lot of tinkering. Which is fine. ah well...it's all part of the adventure, right?

So...with all due respect, I have been following. I KNOW they've shut down the servers. I was just hoping beyond hope...apparently...That BEFORE BUYING an ISY that there might be SOME way to kluge this controller to work with it. There is a lot of dust in the air right now over all this...I get it... but after looking around here in the basement junk piles, this smartlinc 2412N was all I have that comes close to an interface of any kind...it came out of the old Securlinc system I still have in a box of unused stuff. I guess I'll throw money and time at the ISY and see what sticks. at least there's the fact that the Insteon Switches and outlets and thermostats work manually, still. I am sure I'll have more "newbie" questions after I buy the ISY... NOW to figure out WHICH model to buy.

THANK YOU! Ordered.

It seems as though EBay users are already selling the 2413S for HUGE prices... sigh. I have this 2412N and HOPE it can be somehow used. Before I buy an ISY controller, I want to know that I can actually use it. Thanks in advance to all that might consider replying
