Works great!
(5 out of 5) by B from the Emerald City on Jul 10, 2007 (Seattle)I bought this item to operate a fan that I installed in a portion of our loft that overlooks our bed but is only reachable by ladder. Now we don't have the fan cluttering the room and I can power it up with a remote from 30' away. Very happy.

Save $$ by really shutting your TV off
(5 out of 5) by Danno on Jul 12, 2007 (Salem, NH United States)Most people don't know that when you shut off your TV/Computer/Stereo that it still uses electricity - in some cases as much power as if the unit is actually turned on (it's called "stand by power"). The only way to really make it stop using electricity is to unplug it.
This unit is great. Shut off the TV, then use the remote to shut off the power supply - no need to unplug anything.
Just another way to save $$ and save the environment at the same time!

Signal even went through aluminum insulation vapor barrrier
(5 out of 5) by wolflake on Jun 21, 2008 (New York)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. :)

Problem Solved
(5 out of 5) by Virginia on Oct 15, 2007 (San Diego, CA)This product solved a problem we were having. Our Proxima projector is ceiling mounted, and you have to climb a ladder to unplug/replug it. Now instead of climbing a ladder, we use the remote control to unplug/replug it. Thanks!

Works better than I expected
(5 out of 5) by M. Hannah on Feb 15, 2008 (Lawrenceville, GA)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.
