Michael Dann: Once in a while it turns ON by itself without touching the switch. This is a problem because I use it for lights and sometimes the lights are on all night. This happens every couple of days. If it happens during the day then I turn it off, but if it happens at night then it's on all night. Otherwise it works as expected.

Amazon Customer: I installed the motion sensor outside and it has performed very well even at temperatures as low as -27 degrees centigrade. The receiver is inside my garage and turns on outside lights on the garage.
The only downside to the system is that it is active during daylight hours.

justin: It's a decent unit. A bit bulky and thick. Not at all slim and sleek looking. I use it to switch on my under counter lighting in one of my basement apartments. But my tenants report it goes on and off by itself occasionally. So don't buy if it's for something important or dangerous.

VascoVasco: When I first got this remote wall switch about a month ago, I had the same problem that some other reviewers did with it randomly turning itself on. I wondered if the issue was noise on the electrical line or possibly small power spikes. I was going to return the product, but instead tried plugging it in to a $10 surge protector that I had that includes an RF filer. That seems to have done it because I have not had a single false activation in the the last 4 weeks versus having them several times a day in the first few days I had the unit. Maybe I have “dirty power” or something, but others having false activations may want to try it. I would have given it 5 stars if the manufacturer would have added the internal circuitry to filter noise and I did not have to come up with my own solution. After my little fix, it works well to turn my floor lamp on and off from across the room.

A. Canada: I got two and these, and the remote switch works very well, the units look great, and are easy to install. However, when installing two or more, they will interfere with each other if they are set on the same channel. There is an option to have 4 different channels, but this is a factory setting. As far as I know, there was no option to order two or more units set for different channels. I think there should be an option when you place the order. Or, the seller should automatically send units set for different channels if you order more than one.

Rebecca W.: The remote switch is a nice option to have when you cannot have a hard wired switch. It is easy to install and works nicely. It looks like a regular wall switch (with some added depth). My only issue with the remote switch is that you need to have different frequencies if you want more than one switch in your home. I purchased three switches hoping to get different frequencies. However, I received all "A" switches. Because they were all "A" if I turned off one switch, all three lights (in different rooms) would turn off. Amazon could not guarantee that I would get a different frequency and I could not locate "B" or "C" through other sites so I decided to return the switches. It is a great idea and the price was nice but since I could not have three independent switches, the system just would not work for us. If I only needed one switch this would be my go to product for sure.

Unknown Customer: Update 2: I bought my 2nd motion detector outlet as the receivor of the 1st one broke. The reason it broke was because of the continuous multiple detection within a short period of time. There were days that had gust wind and rain, the curtain by the window moves for days. I knew the motion set was contantly working because of the wind and curtain, so I turn of my air purifier ( the electronic that attaches to the receiver ), but I forgot to unplug the receiver and it eventually burn out from literally constantly 24h/day x n day being on and off.

The 2nd motion detector set works well. It turns on when it detects motion, and turns off automatically after 10 minutes. This time I put the sensor in a box, to limit its detection from certain angels. This trick helps a lot since my cat walks to the litter box only from certain direction. ( I use the motion set to turn on and off an air purifier next to my cat's litter box)

-------
Update: having this device for about half of year, it works great.

If you put the device near a curtain, it will react as contain moves by wind. It doesn't turn on the device for no reason.

It has a sensitive sensor and with a...

kitty: I have had an old model somewhat similar to this for over 25 years. It finally stopped working well. I was so pleased when I got this. It's so much easier to use than the flip switch. I barely have to touch the rocker switch. I wish I had gotten this replacement sooner. One of my complaints is the 2 very tiny screws to install the casing. Even with a magnetic screwdriver, it was difficult to get the screws into the wall. Also, the light that shines from the hole in the middle of the receiver is much too bright. But I resolved that by putting on about 3 garage sale type "dots" as they're called. About 1 inch circles. (I do the same thing on other electronic equipment, PCs, speakers, etc. that have the same type bright light). That has dimmed the light to a normal level and hasn't affected the working of the remote. I also wish the receiver wasn't as big as it is. It takes up 2 of my 4 outlets, although it only uses one plug, it "hangs" over to the other plug rendering that plug unusable. Even with all my complaints, I would still buy again.
