I purchased this item after having no luck with "The Clapper". I use this item indoors and purchased the outdoor version simply because it was less costly than the indoor version. It works perfectly, each time, every time and I am VERY pleased with this item. The remote is small enough to carry with me and has an enormously long range. It even turns the light on/off from outside, across the street, so I am pleased to never have to enter a dark house.
So So:
I use this to turn on and off a garbage disposal.Turns on the disposal every single time from upto 20' away. Does a very poor job at tuning it off. I have to press the off button several time before it responds. I can live with the inconvenience.
Don't Purchase:
Purchased two of these. Both were set up on a porch in a sheltered area, but neither worked in the cold (below 40 degrees) and neither worked when it rained. One stopped working all together after a few months, and the other works only sporadically. Not a good product.
So far so good:
I have been using this product everyday since I got it from Amazon. It's been working great. I am using it indoors not outdoors. The only thing I think other people might want to know is that the power outlet is pretty big. It is not a problem for me because I hide it so I can't see it.
