Tools and Hardware Reviews of GE 51140 Indoor Outlet Adapter, Smart Remote Plus Receiver

Customer Review: The Perfect Solution!
Summary: 5 Stars

I had a non-working switch in my newly purchased condo. It was terribly annoying to walk into the room, hit the switch and have nothing happen. And before you think of telling me to check the outlets - I did. No outlets worked with the switch either. It simply was there for show only - no wires were connected. After asking some home repair people, I learned that adding wiring after the fact was a large project. This switch solved the problem very inexpensively and with no workmen - only a screwdriver, a wire cutter and about 10 minutes of my time. I did get a friend with a voltage-tester to make sure there was nothing live in the wires. Then I removed the old switch by unscrewing the switch plate and cutting the dead wires. This little switch fit right where the bad one was.

A note to GE: 5 minutes of the 10 was spent opening the very hard plastic these products were packaged in. Whoever invented that stronger-than-steel, environmentally unfriendly plastic should be taken out to the woodshed and SHOT!

The second part of this was even easier. I plugged the receptor into an open outlet, plugged a lamp into that and made sure the numbers agreed on the two devices (so they could talk). And Voila! It worked the very first time! I also found the directions easy to follow, which is rare these days.

This was so much fun, I started getting ideas. I now have a switch upstairs that turns on a light in the kitchen, so I can turn it on at night if I decide to go down for a snack and don't want to turn on the hall light. I have a list of other things I want to switch from unusual places. It works even if there is a chair in the way - totally cool!!!

I'm always showing it off, because I feel so smart for solving the problem myself for practically no money. I can't think of anything (other than the package) I didn't absolutely love! It was the perfect solution!
