Review on 🏠 Chamberlain PILCEV MyQ Remote Lamp Control - Effortlessly Manage Home Lighting using Remote Control or MyQ Technology (Sold Separately) by Sean Webb

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best Christmas Lights Timer (with MyQ)

After just one day, so far so good. I used 3 for Christmas lights. I currently only use the MyQ app to schedule them (Chamberlain finally allows you to set a schedule for their lamp/light switch!) As for the remote, I have 3 other of the light switches I've bought and this it was working properly. Back to the lamp switch used for the Christmas lights, all (3) synced flawlessly with the app and all I can say about the load is what I can say. All 3 no problems. The maximum load on 1 lamp switch is 7 turns of a C9 25 lamp. I had to use adapters from 3 pin to 2 pin. Currently all lights (3 switches) are on for 3 hours every night from 6pm to 9pm. The upside is you get 3 remotes which I know I've only paid $30 for in the past. If you've ever thought about replacing your porch light switch, do it. Now that you can set a schedule to turn on/off light switches/lamps via the MyQ app, this is definitely not a problem for the porch/patio lights. (One thing about light switches is that they come with a ground wire that MUST be used for them to work.)

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Packaging is ugly
