Move toward automated power with the GE-branded Wireless Motion Sensor Lighting Control. Lamps, plug-in under cabinet fixtures and other corded lighting turn on when movement is detected to offer convenience and peace of mind.

Nice But Not for Us
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.

Works well
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 wide detection range, anything that moves, even heat will trigger the sensor.——–Old review:bought this to turn on air purifier next to cat litterbox.about 1month of use, this device starts to acting weird: when there isnt anything moving, it turns on.other than that, it works for me. It turns on a device for 10 mins and turns it off automatically.I sometimes watch horror movies or tv shows in the same room, and I think it also detects ghosts. It turns on when there isnt anything moving. It does add some extra effect when watching scary movies…If you are looking for something with this rare functionality, you can give it a try.

Good Single Remote Switch
Most people have covered this remote wall switch, so I’ll just reiterate in this review. Overall, this product worked for me, and for this specific application, I would purchase again. This was a replacement to an old remote wall switch (different brand) that died after 2 years, so we’ll see how long this one lasts.PROS⢠No bright light on receiver⢠Easy to install⢠Inexpensive⢠Works as expectedCONS⢠Rocker switch is really a push button which makes a very audible “click” noise when pressed⢠Wall switch doesn’t match standard Decora wall plates; not only does the plate stick out, but it’s also a different size (although I know Decora plates come in various sizes, I have the larger, flexible plates)I’m using this switch in the bathroom for a set of brighter lights above the mirror so because I don’t have multiple switches, I was fine with using this product. The receiver is set inside a cabinet with an outlet, so the light wouldn’t have bothered me, but my unit doesn’t have a light on it anyhow. It seems as thought GE has changed the receiver design.

Excellent wireless switch for single-use applications
I bought this to power a string of christmas tree lights in my fiance’s apartment. The switch is mounted on a wall perpendicular to the outlet, about 20 feet apart with clear line of sight. It’s been in use for a couple months now and works flawlessly so far. The switch comes with a removable back plate which makes it very easy to mount – just mount the plate and then slide the switch onto the plate. Installation took 2 minutes. The switch is a two-way toggle that activates and deactivates the outlet whether you press up or down. This is actually pretty cool as well because you can just mash the switch with your hand and it’ll do what you want.As this is a 5-star review, in fairness to the reader I will point out that I only used a single unit in this application. Several reviewers have reported that all these switches and receivers operate on the same wavelength and do not have unique signal codes, which means that any switch will activate all of the outlets within wireless range. But if you only want one switch, I can highly recommend this one.

Works Well
This works much better than the off-brand alternatives you find here on Amazon.

Dead after 3 months
Aside from not being able to change the on time (10 mins), and aside from not resetting the timer if motion is detected when on (always goes off, and then motion will turn back on, but constant motion cannot keep it on), and from malfunctioning and turning itself on, it dies after 3 months! I definitely would recommend looking for something else.

Used this for a garage light. Works great!

Práctico para aparatos sin switch de encendido. La única queja es que los tornillos que trae para montaje son casi microscópicos, imposibles de maniobrar. Ten en cuenta tener otros tornillos para su instalación, fuera de eso, el producto es funcional

Have had for multiple years i cant even remember when exactly, but its worked awesome batteries haven’t died only problem was that the switch only works on one side but id doesn’t really affect the performance and it was likely because of my toddler throwing it across the house for fun

I bought 2 of these because, based on the reviews I read, I was hoping that I could use just 1 switch to control 2 outlets at the same time (in the same room). I tried it, and it worked perfectly! Works great if you want to turn on 2 lights in the same room using just 1 switch. The other switch still works as a spare. So thankfully, for this application, it’s very useful to have them both on the same frequency.
