No, this is just a 4 channel X10 transmitter. You will still need the
ld11 if you want to dim a light - but it will save you some cabling :-
)
I intend to use it as a transmitter for driving wall socket appliance
modules - that way SWMBO can hide the wires wherever she wants - and
I can switch them off from the same location all the time - and don't
have to look for the local switches all the time.

I ordered qty1 because import and VAT knows where I live - they
usually charge everything over 50$ - I hope to get away with this one.
