I thought it was the Xbee until I wrote to the stream’s buffer instead of directly to the stream output." I too am communicating with one side of my Xbee's using C# code. What is the difference and how do you write to the buffer instead of the output? Thanks! Justin Hello,

I too am communicating with one side of my Xbee’s using C# code. What is the difference and how do you write to the buffer instead of the output?

Thanks!

I have a fascination with LED lighting and I made a wireless "wall washer" using Xbee to individually control 8 high power LEDs. I'll be putting up documentation on the project sometime soon with the details on that. I am definitely continuing work with the Xbee modules, especially in home automation. I am working on possibly starting up a company to do Xbee related kits. Stay tuned. :) Andrew Thanks.

I have been 'playing' with these on and off over last year and a bit and they are really easy to get up and running. Your tips above are a good pointer to those just starting out. Cheers, Dale Nice wrap up.

I'm curious, what are you using the Xbee for?
