<p class="MsoNormal">X-10??? Is that stuff still around?? <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I initially used a wireless receiver used in security systems to turn my DC on and off. I had 3 or 4 remotes strategically placed around the shop. Worked well until apparently fine sawdust got into the remotes and the buttons became flakey.
Almost 20 years later I figured there had to be something better out there so I went on a quest. Found these car remote sized nifty dust proof and probably water tight on/off buttons and a tiny wireless receiver for dirt cheap from Banggood. Yeah, Joe and
Spud Dave, now Colorado Dave would have a fit about buying from them but it was all I could find that fit my plan. Plus the cost was low enough that if it was a failure, oh well. Struggled a bit understanding how to pair the remotes and receiver but once
I had it all working it is great. Little remotes at all the machines on the DC so I don’t have to go on a quest to find one that works anymore. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Yes, way back in 2009 we were looking at it. And yes, I still plan to use X10 to turn the DC on and off. I'll take apart an X10 remote and hook it up to a GPIO on whatever microcontroller (probably Arduino) that I end up using. <o:p></o:p></p>
