I've never had a problem as such with X-10 modules, having wired them and then
moving them between a number of apartments and houses over the last 5 years.

The only complant I have is that the wall switch modules at the full brightness
setting are still dimmed just a tad. Not enough to notice from the lamp
brightness, but some light bulbs buzz. Also, sometimes this generates enough
RFI to cause a buzz on an AM radio.

I am sure there is a good technical reason that this is this way. For example,
since the switch is just in series with the power line and the is no separate
nutral return, I expect that they fire the triac just a bit late so that they
can pick off enough voltage to run the circuitry.
