Where do I find X10 switches and outlets?

[Chris H]

Hello again,
Had my entire system installed yesterday. Everything works great.
I got the concord pro-6000 with the light module and one plug in
receiver for a lamp. I would like to begin adding X10 switches and
outlets around the house. Do you guys know where I can get them and if
there is a specific type I need to buy. Here is another question, the
light with the plug in module is setup as 'light 1'. When I add more
switches and outlets, how do I program other lights to be 'light 2' or
'light 3' and so on? I suspect if I set the switches on the new
switches the same as that on the plug in receiver, they will also be
'light 1'
I have gone throught the manual in detail and there is not much info
on how to assign different lights to different numbers. Any help would
be appreciated.
Thanks!

You can get them from your security dealer usually, but you can also get
them from Radio Shack; they carry the X-10 Powerhouse line.

I'm not familiar with the concord product line, so I can't tell you anything
about programming it, but the devices (modules) have 2 switches typically.
1st is house code (in case you share electrical service with someone else,
they can be set to 2 different house codes so they won't interfere with each
other) and 2nd is the actual address. You are correct on the addressing. The
devices I've seen only go from 1-16 and the panels I've seen only let you
use 1 house code, so 16 addresses max on those panels.

Radio Shack, I'd imagine the panel needs additional programming to use them
tho

Lowes or Home Depot can't remember which one has x-10 components.
