The 3 pack of switches is really great. They work really well and there is actually no set up. I wanted one outside to turn on Decorative lights and I was concerned it could be damaged or shorted in the rain. I mounted it inside a sealed plastic box and was still able to actuate it from over 40 ft away.
I highly recommend this product.

These wireless remote control outlet switches are nothing fancy but they do the job. One of the units did not work out of the package until I slapped on the side of it a few times. The red light that indicates power would come on and then fade out. It is supposed to be on when it is plugged in. I was upset because I did not want to send all three of them back because of the one defective unit. Luckily after I slapped on the side of unit number 1 it started working and so far has not been a problem. That's been at least a week now. Don't think I will have a major issue with it again. The remote control did come with a battery although it was buried loosely in the packaging so be careful. Amazon assured me that I could have either a refund or replacement within 30 days so that is nice to know! Great for all 3 of my lamps which are a table lamp, a dining room swag light and a floor lamp. Remote control will work through the walls from my bedroom to turn them on or off if I want to. That is approximately 30 feet away through a couple walls. I would purchase again but pay no more than the $25.Best Deals for Wireless Remote Control Outlet Switch Socket 3 Pack (3 Outlets) *
Recently purchased this to replace an aging and failing "Clapper". The sound activation isn't important to me. What is important to me is having the easy push button control on my night-table.The product works but here are my initial impressions:
Battery insertion was difficult just as previous reviewers mentioned. It took me about 4-5 attempts to get the thing to fit and remain in its compartment.
The remote control feels cheaply made and the buttons seem fragile.
There's no keyring or hole on the remote control like there is on the Clapper remote control so I can't "hang" it on my night-table. Worked-around it with tie-wrap but velcro would probably work, too.
The battery isn't AA, AAA, or standard 9V. It's 23A, 12W.
Each of the three remote sockets is about 4" long and 2.5" wide. And the prongs seem "reversed" so that you cannot hang a unit from the wall outlet. Plug the remote outlet into the wall and it extends upward. If plugged into the upper wall outlet of the two, the bottom outlet is unusable.
If plugged into a powerstrip, one or two other outlets on the strip are unusable.
Other than these, it seems ok.
I'm disappointed with the product but satisfied that it works.
