Homematic?

[Bart]

Does anyone know HomeMatic?

They have a broad spectrum of products and it's affordable. In the Netherlands it's sold by Conrad:
Home>>In en om het huis>>Home automation>>Automatiseringsystemen HomeMatic

I can't find any technical specs of it. Is it new? Is it refurbished?

[Edit: found something. <i>HomeMatic uses the home-brew protocol BidCos based on TI CC1100 transceivers (3 Euro). Normally driven by an ATMEL processor (1..4 Euro). The (868,3MHz / 2-FSK modulation) transmit and receive part of messages is completely handled by the well documented TI chip (Output power set to its maximum of 10dBm - see CC11xx registers 4 BidCos).</i>

Old topic, but recently ELV has lowered the price of this system dramatically.
