Review on BN LINK ES1513 5 2 Wireless Remote Control by Runbi Alvarez

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great product but little design.

This would be a 5 star item except the fork alignment is ridiculous and poorly designed. By turning the plugs so that the grounding element points towards the inside of the device, you can connect it to an extension cord without using 3 outlets at once. These days, however, it's obviously only meant to be plugged directly into the top outlet in the wall box, and trying to use it any other way requires either a ton of space on the power distribution panel or the purchase of a miniature 6-inch power strip. We went for mini expansions, but that really should be fixed in a future design update. Otherwise they are very comfortable. It's easy to install once you figure out the removal problem. I love that all the blocks are numbered to match their place on the remote and they can also be reprogrammed if needed so you don't have to move each block if you need to swap them out on the remote. The remote control is thin, light, the buttons are very responsive. I like that the remote control and buttons are made of hard plastic, making them easy to keep clean.

Pros
  • FLEXIBILITY. With the ability to pair multiple BN-Link remote sockets, you can expand your system and put all your home appliances in the palm of your hand!
Cons
  • Expensive
