Those who have been around, know that PCS, with their Pulseworx line, was the originator of UPB. This mostly affects the dealers who have projects with HLC already installed, since they will occasionally have to replace failed devices or add on to their existing installs. Once again giving a clue to the future on the Omni system. They quickly sold out of the popular in-wall and plug-in dimmers.

I will still cache tech-notes and manuals because I don’t know how long Leviton will keep them available. I will share news or tips, if anything comes up, but few articles. The Promo19 kit was a way to sell through a cache of keypads they released from back stock, and push out some of the remaining Pro2 panels. As we can see by the latest news, Leviton is doing what it can to unload the last of their inventory. I’ve also been trying to decide how to move forward with this site.įrankly, I expected the HAI closure to last at least a year or two.
