I purchased this product so I could turn on my living room light before I entered the house. Though it claims it will work up to 80' away, that must be an unobstructed path. It would work 10' away in the house, sometimes right outside the front door if you pointed exactly in the right spot. Very sporadic. If my garage door opener can work a 100' away, why can't they make lamp control work? I returned the product.

The product has a unique feature that allows you not only to turn lights on and off but also to dim lights. Unfortunately, it seems there is a quality control issue with the product. The unit I purchase never really worked even when holding the remote less than an inch from the receiver (also after replacing batteries for new ones). I guess that is why the entire line has been on clearance before. Hope Zenith improves the product for future releases as I still thing the dimming feature is worthwhile.Best Deals for Heath Zenith SL-6008-WH-A Wireless Command Remote Control Lamp Set
We recently expanded a screen porch and lightly furnished with a few party lights and a lamp. Problem is that at night, there is no switch to turn lights on/off; this is a great fix and is secure.We can turn the lights on/off from inside the house which is especially helpful for the midnight bathroom run by the dogs.
What I thought was an added benefit (didn't know until we already purchased) was the dimmer feature so we can dim the lights to our liking.
This kit comes with one transmitter that is capable of driving two different devices, but only one receiver. Keep this in mind!
Honest reviews on Heath Zenith SL-6008-WH-A Wireless Command Remote Control Lamp Set
I previously used the Lutron MIR-603THW-WH, but had to "downgrade" to this when I moved because the wall switch doesn't control the socket I want. So this item is pretty straightforward, but I really hate it. The remote is pretty junky, the buttons don't work very reliably (maybe 6 out of 10 pushes). The "dim" function on the remote steps through discrete levels 1-5 instead of smooth transition, but if you switch on/off it doesn't remember your dimmer level. Also, there is no transition off, it's just abruptly off. And finally, the device doesn't accept a 3-pronged plug (w/ ground) which makes it difficult to run an extension cord. This device may work for someone else, but I'm going to keep searching.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Heath Zenith SL-6008-WH-A Wireless Command Remote Control Lamp Set
I purchased a few of these over 10 years ago and they still work great! Unlike other systems that come preset to a frequency YOU can customize these units for any frequency! They have "dip switches" so when we recently bought more units and we can simply set them to correspond with our 10 year old units!! The kids have them in their rooms on separate switch settings so they dont interfere with the downstairs lights either.We have a number of decorative lamps and display cabinet lights that would take forever to switch on manually. All we need to do is hit the button and it lights up or turns off all 12 at once! We have the second circuit set up for our dining room displays/accent lighting so when company comes over we can enter an entertaining mode immediately from the same controller 20 feet away.
The Dimmer function does NOT work with regular CFL's but does with new dimmable CFL's. The dimming feature DOES work with Halogen display lighting (someone mentioned in another review of similar product that it didnt).
Truly a 5 star product!
