Lightning Pro Grade Plug-In Receiver Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I received my Lightning Switch and with two actions, I was turning on my cathedral ceiling gallery lights. From my chair! You will love the Lightning Switch. You simply plug the receiver into the wall, plug your lights into the receiver, and CLICK, you're turning lights off and on, from just about anywhere in your house or yard! I have waited for such a device since I fractured a vertebrae a few years ago. Not only can I utilize any electrical device without reaching up, but I can do so without bending down! This is the PERFECT answer to people with limited mobility or anyone who might have a plug which is a) behind the piano, b) up in an alcove, or c)anywhere which might be just a teeeeny bit out of reach. I see a great future for the Lightning Switch and its inventors in the advancing field of home technology for people with special needs. I love my unit and can now look forward to many years of enjoyment and safety.

Lightning Switch Toggle Transmitter -- Long Range (60-75 ft.) Transmission Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The drawbacks mentioned by the other reviewers are very minor. There is a short delay in the circuitry after clicking the transmitter, so that rapid on/off from the same clicker may not work. I haven't tried it with using the two clickers I have, but my guess is that the delay is inherent in the technology of the transmitter, not the receiver. The transmitters appear to use a piezo-electric crystal to generate their electricity. The crystal is struck, causing it to give of the current used for the RF signal. After being struck they take a moment to return to the previous state, hence the delay. It could also explain why repeated multiple uses during a short period of time could cause it not to function for a while. The thing could break, but it's not going to wear out. They are perfect for three-way (or more) applications, and have saved me a lot of work it putting switches in where the lighting had previously been on pull-chains. The in-line receiver is a little bit large (about the size of a pack of cigarettes), and it may not fit in a junction box that has more than the power and the fixture wires going to and from it. My only objection is that I wish they were a bit cheaper. With remote controls for ceiling fans so reasonably priced, it would be nice if these were about half the price they are. NOTE: They're still a lot cheaper than hiring an electrician and a lot less work than running new wiring yourself.
Also, if you ever have need to talk to the company, they are great people. I needed to order a second receiver, and they called to make sure I hadn't mistakenly ordered one without a transmitter thinking I was getting a complete system and offering to cancel the order if I had screwed up. I assured them I already had a transmitter, so they wen ahed with the order. It arrived the following day.
