There are nights where all I want to do is watch television. I find that perfect cozy spot on the sofa and snuggle with my blanket. Then, it never fails. My lamp, which I forgot to turn off, is still on causing a glare on my T.V. The problem is it's across the room. I think I found a solution.
The Handy Switch Wireless Light Switch. It has a remote receiver you plug into your wall and the switch that looks like a real wall mounted light switch. It even comes with a wall bracket mounting unit that detaches from the unit. The product will cost you about $15, but Does It Work?
Getting started was easy. Find a plug and plug whatever you want to control into the remote receiver. All you need in your hand is the switch. I plugged in my den lamp. By flipping the switch to the "on" position, the light came on. Not bad. I want to point out every time I turned it on, the night light that is on the plug stops glowing.
One thing I hate is coming home to a dark house. Maybe the handy switch can help me turn on some lights before I even step foot. The Handy Switch apparently works up to 60 feet. I'll see if it works from the street in front of my house. "Switch on and off," I said. I was probably just about 60 feet away and couldn't believe it worked.
What if I go across the street to the neighbor's yard? Would it work then? I was amazed. It did.
There's no game in this name, the Handy Switch works!
I picked this up at Linens and Things for about $15.
