Product Description

If you can relate to any of the following scenarios then this product is definitely for you! You've settled in for the evening, put the kids to bed and now it's your turn. You crawl into bed with a great novel or turn the TV on to watch the late night news and get comfortable. You start to doze off and that's when you realize - you've left the lights on! Now you have to sacrifice the warmth and comfort of your bed to crawl out and turn the lights off! You're in the living room and you're ready to go to bed but the lamp or light switch is on the other side of the room. You wish there was an easier way of turning it off without having to walk all the way across the room, wasting valuable time. Your child is afraid of the dark, and refuses to fall asleep with the lights off,which means you have to get up later to turn the lights off or settle for paying a much higher utility bill! "Well, No More!" Here's the answer you've been waiting for...The IR Remote "Just Point & Shoot". Now you can dim your lights or turn them off from a distance with one simple touch of your TV Remote Control... Just Point and Click, and its done! It's easy, convenient and affordable. The IR Remote "Just Point & Shoot" works with any TV remote control, so the one you currently have will work just fine and you don't have to have an extra remote lying around! This amazing device also has a push button on the receiver module so you can control your lights manually if your remote isn't around.

I bought 2 of them thinking I would be able to control my living room lights with my Logitech Harmony remote. They are both useless. Very hard to program, completely unintuitive, and often they go out of sync so that the lights randomly start dimming when I change channels or volume on my TV. Kinda spooky! The technology in theory is good, but very badly implemented. Stay away if you want to keep your sanity.

I used one as a 'manual' dimmer for my christmas tree lights last year. This is the only reason for giving it 2 stars.

I bought this product to allow my HTPC to be able to turn on and off an accessory. I never even got that far. This unit blows its internal fuse on the second or third use. I've replaced the fuse three times and it continues to blow without anything even plugged into it!
