NOS Electronics & Home Automation Systems

A lot of home automation systems and parts are available now at CranberryManor, with more coming soon.

These selections include a vast assortment of the X10 System, as well as Vivitar, Westinghouse, CyberGenie, and more.

A sampling of CranberryManor's X10 offerings, with most of these offerings unopened and/or unused.

About the X10 system:

"The X10 and X10 Pro product lines are the original home automation source for end-users, installers, contractors and the do-it-yourself market. X10 began manufacturing home automation components in the late 1970's..."

The CyberGenie items available include the system (opened and gently used) and 2 handsets (unopened, unused, unsealed).

CyberGenie was one of the first computer automated phone systems during a time when whole-house phones were a thing.  The parent company, Cygnion, was defunct by c2000, so these systems today are considered vintage.
