Moving from X10 to ZWAVE

I have a large Housebot system that is currently using X10 lamp modules and X10 switches for all lights, along with WF800 transceiver, wireless switches and movement sensors.



If I want to start changing to Z-wave can I just start replacing switch / lamp modules? What hardware does HB use to interface with z-wave devices?



Does anybody know anything about availability of 240 Volt z-wave devices?

It uses a USB Z-Wave Controller. You can find Z-Wave controllers and switches at several places on the Internet. Here's a linkto one that shows some US and European devices. You can probably find them cheaper at Worthington Distribution.
