What can you tell me about them?
Are there other options out there?
I will be putting the lights on a remote controlled dimmer in the HT.
Can one remote control 2 separate dimmers?

I was going to pick up the starter kit, but when I realized I'd have to open my laptop just to turn on the lights in my living room, it made less sense.
However, if I had a dedicated Home Theater (like you soon will) I still think this system is the cat's meow! For what it's worth...
Towen7 said:The ones I'm using are RF operated and are integrated into the URC remote scheme. With them and the URC remote I have the luxury of custom scenes and macros from the same remote I use for all the HT equipment. Hitting "play" brings all the lights down, "pause" brings the lights up about 1/2 way and "stop" brings the lights all the way up. If/when I add other dimmers and switches throughout the house I could set scenes in each room...
So... with the understanding that these are the only remote dimmers that I've got experience with, and that I'm more a fan of the system than the dimmer per se'... Yes.
