Paul: The short answer is no.  The CM15A is
dependant on having 60Hz power.  The 50Hz
power you have in the UK will cause the
clock to run slow.  The transceiver also
works at a different RF frequency for North
America than it does in Europe.

Although this is an old thread I thought it should be noted that there now is a European version out
The CM15-E can be purchaced here(page in french)
A link to the AHP-EU software can be found on my site at the bottom of the page! ;)

No doubt!
They definitely reworked more then just the power issues.
Even the software has a higher release version. Guess we know where all the X10 USA programmers and engineers went! ;) :D ;D

Since they use different frequencies for RF over there that may be the reasoning! ::) Also there are a few like me that get the advertised range (with out any mods) , and no my house isn't made of paper mache! ;)
