DO NOT buy, security risk.

I'm not sure if the UL certificate is fake but it has nothing connected to ground just a dummy connection. Tried to see if I could remove the ground pin for use with a 2 fan on a 2 pin socket and took it apart. As you can see, nothing is actually connected to ground, so even when used on a 3-prong outlet and device, NO GROUNDING IS PROVIDED. Any device with metal, such as a lamp, etc., will not be properly connected and will not be protected from live metal parts in the event of a fault.

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Everything is fine

This sucks - Electrician

This was purchased to help my elderly family member get up and keep turning the lights on and off. This device didn't help at all, when the light went out it stayed off for maybe a minute and then came back on by itself and when the light came on it went off. I've repeatedly tried resetting this device according to the instructions in the box, didn't help, and I bought two of these, one for me and one for my family member who it could really help, but it didn't help. So now I've spent money on…

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • I keep calm

There is no better clearance than factory controllers.

I have dozens of my own controllers in a year. I was hoping this one would reach the advertised 100 feet. But alas, he died 32 feet away in a doorway, but with no walls or other obstacles. It was almost exactly the same distance to failure as another controller 5 years ago. With many controllers, I've found only one controller that could go over 80 feet with outside walls in the way. It was a remote IR expander operating at 900MHz. This is a more complex task than just giving an on-off signal…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • I have no particular complaints about it, everything is fine

Exactly what I was looking for

I have ordered 2 of these switches. When they arrived 1 was not working properly. The other worked perfectly and was exactly what I was looking for. I contacted the supplier through Revain to find out what to do with the non-working unit. They have arranged delivery by UPS. In the years I've been using Revain I've had 4 defective items (out of about a hundred items so not bad on average). Due to the problem with returns (I live in the country) I always just threw the things away. I was blown…

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • Useless features

Great and flexible product!

I ordered two of these devices so I can have two different homes that can be disconnected and reconnected to our shared internet system (if it fails it has to be disconnected and restarted). But unfortunately each unit worked with a different code. The instructions didn't help entirely (although it would have worked if I had just tried to program one unit to respond to either remote). Instead I contacted the company and they were quick to reply that yes, both remotes - regardless of the code…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Unreliable

Good product! good for electrics

I had an old remote switch with IR and not only was it hard to use, it was getting harder to use every day. I found this switch at Revain. It looked almost too good to be true for the price, but I bought it anyway and am always glad I did. When it arrived I plugged in the outlet and then my lamp in our bedroom, pressed the on/off button and it worked straight away! It uses RF and works instantly from anywhere in the room. It also uses a 12V battery instead of the button batteries that some…

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

EASY installation, works straight away

I bought this item so I can turn off the lamp next to my TV. I was able to turn the TV on and off with the remote but had to go to the lamp to turn it off. I didn't know such a device was available until I looked for a remote control lamp from Revain. Plug the wall switch into the outlet you want to make "remote"; then connect the lamp (etc.) to the wall switch; Remove the protective strip from the remote control and you can control the lamp remotely! The only disappointment for me is that 2…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Quick start guide
