January 4, 20224 yr Popular Post I got a nice gift for Christmas. It is a 3 remote switch. I got it in and I love it. I have one on the shop vacuum so that I can turn it on from anywhere, the second is on the bank of lights behind the assembly table, and the third I put on the ambient air filter that's always hard to get to. I have the remote on some Velcro so it sits at the end of my bench power bar, but I can toss it in my work apron if I am working in another part of the shop. $18 at Amazon or Wal*mart, 5 unit version available about $10 more . https://www.walmart.com/ip/BN-LINK-Wireless-Remote-Control-Outlet-1-Remotes-3-Outlets-Value-Pack/136872496?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=13250&&adid=22222222227000000000&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=42423897272&wl4=pla-51320962143&wl5=9015639&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=117893468&wl11=online&wl12=136872496&veh=sem&gclid=Cj0KCQiA_c-OBhDFARIsAIFg3exebkTOXmKQ7eCFL8uiVGjclNf-CNHsAS9DwpSjuJ2S9-Rw0rE9W0AaAk8oEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds
January 4, 20224 yr Popular Post I've had these for about 3yrs now. They work ok (well) https://www.harborfreight.com/indoor-wireless-remote-system-3-pc-62575.html?_br_psugg_q=remote+control $2 more but it'll be cheaper with a coupon.
January 5, 20224 yr I purchased a couple sets similar from Menards several years ago for both my mother and MIL. Set them up to operate lamps from where they sat in the living rooms as well as bedrooms. They worked well. Mom passed almost 4 y/a and MIL over 6 now. I have MIL's set. Mom's set moved to assisted living "apartment" with my step-father this past August. Similar to THIS
January 5, 20224 yr We have one like Keith's but the remote has 5 sets of keys, but only came with three plugs. Used in bedroom for sound machine and a lamp and I am not sure where the other plug is now. Great item
January 12, 20224 yr Popular Post With my luck, I would be like the lady in the commercial who was trying to turn on the TV, and the garage door kept going up and down. I won't say that I am quite a "techidiot", yet, but I seem to get closer to one every day.
