How big of a house can RadioRA cover with the specified 30 foot range of the Repeater?
Lutron modeled a “worst case” home, including construction techniques such as cement, metal studs, stone walls and foil wrap. It was determined that in this worst case world, a conservative range for the Repeater is 30 feet. Assuming the average height of a room is ten feet, a RadioRA Repeater could cover six floors (three floors above the Repeater and three floors below it) or a 60 foot diameter sphere (30 foot radius). The coverage area of a Repeater is approximately 2,800 square feet per floor. Using all four RadioRA Repeaters, you could cover a floor as large as 10,000 square feet, or a volume of over 450,000 cubic feet. Q14: Are there RadioRA dimmers to control special load types or high wattages? RadioRA has dimmers to directly control up to 1000W of incandescent, 1000VA of magnetic low-voltage (MLV), 500W of electronic low-voltage (ELV), and 5A of fluorescent (requires Lutron Tu-Wire dimming ballasts). There are also interfaces available to control larger loads of incandescent,
