I used this to control a set of florescent light fixtures in a large game room. It works as it should. Although if you switch the wireless end too rapidly it doesn't work, but if you do it in a slower fashion, it works every time. The florescent fixtures I have are the electronic ballast type.

When we moved into our new home we found that the previous owner had located the light switch for the bathroom behind the door. In about 15 minutes I installed the wireless switch next to the door, where you naturally reach to turn on the light. It works great.

I needed to create a "3-way switch" fo some patio lights. This did the trick with NO extra wiring.

I had a light switch that controlled my eave receptacles for my xmas lights. It unfortunately was upstairs in the attic. I was able to place the Heath wireless downstairs and save a lot of un and downstairs trips. Inexpensive, installed in 10 minutes and worked as promised

Very easy to install. Like turning the lights on in the garage from the house. It does not work well with fluorescent lights.

Doesn't say anywhere on package that you can't use with CFLs. When I tried, the light wouldn't turn off, just would flicker. Throwing the switch would turn it on. Switching back, and again, the light would flicker. Swapped out with incandescent, and it works beautifully. Wife is thrilled to be able to turn on the overhead light at the door where she enters the room most often.

Most bedrooms have a switch at the door to control the lights beside the bed. I currently am using this in the master bedroom to provide a on/off switch at the bed side. I have the remote switch fixed (velcro) to the side of the night stand. Makes it easy to turn off/on bed side lights.

I have a second switch in a utility room that controls an overhead light. The orginal switch is located behind the enterence door. I got tired always having to go behine the door to turn on the light. I have mounted the remote on the wall for easy access to turn light on/off. Great HeithKit product.

Used item to replace the original item made by GE that ran for 4 yrs before dying. The Heath Zenith unit is cheaply made and works, but is not reliable. I am out looking for a new GE unit.

My hall light had only one switch & i needed a switch at the other end of the hall, estimate for electrician to run new wire & a second switch [3 way switch] was over $130. I saved $100+..I am going to ad one to my detached garage so i can turn my lights on before i go out to garage.. PS I have tested & this switch will send signal over 50+ feet..

This does turn on my compact fluorescent bulbs outside, but only in warm weather. Otherwise, when it is cold it does not turn them on at all. It also buzzes when I am using those bulbs. With regular bulbs, no problems. Good range.
