SVAT WRC100 Wireless Indoor Remote Control Power Outlet

While this product works well with lamps and fans that have knobs that you turn, it only half works with fans or other products that turn on with buttons. For example, I have a fan that you press the button three times to go from low to high to off. The remote will turn it off, but won't turn it back on. Same thing with a button-only air conditioner. However, it does turn my twist-dial fan both on and off.

I put a computer in the basement to use as a media source for my big LCD screen TV on the first floor. I was concerned that the signal from the switch wouldn't get through the aluminum vapor barrier in the insulation in the basement floor but I've used it for 2 weeks now and it's worked flawlessly. I'm very pleased. :)

Plug it in and it worked great, until it blew out the next day. What a rip off.

First off you get two batteries with this one. One to use right away and one for later on when the first one dies, which i imagine would take awhile because of the small use it goes through in a day. This product works great I have it under a bed that's plugged into a lamp and it works just fine turning the light on with a simple click. I can imagine there might be a few things that wouldn't work with it though such as things that have a power button. I would recommend test out the thing you want to attach it to first by turning on the lamp or what ever it may be, then unplug it. If it turns back on by just plugging it back in then it should work just fine.

Product is just as advertised, works as advertised and perfect for a long range (across room) operation of free standing lamp behind couch that was difficult at best to turn on manually.
