Thank you for your excellent account of your move to velbus. My requirements are a bit different as I'm keen not to have to install any wiring. I think that points to Z-wave but I understand I would need a primary controller so after any transition phase would the Comfort system become redundant? Can someone advise what can be done with Comfort/X10/Z_wave that could not be done with just a Z-wave system?

Another alternative seems to be LightwaveRF. Can Comfort control LightwaveRF kit and again is there an advantage in taking this route after the transition rather than moving entirely to LightwaveRF.

Cbus (and velbus) are I understand wired systems. KNX does seem to have a wireless mode so is KNX wireless devices with the controller wired to the Comfort interface a possibility? Again would Comfort then be redundant?

I'm reluctant to move away from Comfort as it is an excellent system and the support is absolutely superb but I want to move way from X10 but I don't want to install any wiring.

Any advice appreciated.
