I am thrilled with how these remotes can be configured to work. I got the set with 3 outlet controllers and a remote that has 5 sets of on/off buttons. I later added a fourth outlet controller to the set. I originally bought it to control a lamp across the room at night. However, after getting it, I decided to use it for three other lamps I have as well. Now I have everything set up to any combination I could ever want!

On/Off Buttons 1 - lamp 1
On/Off Buttons 2 - lamp 2
On/Off Buttons 3 - lamp 3
On/Off Buttons 4 - lamp 4
On/Off Buttons 5 - lamp 1, 2, 3, and 4 simultaneously

So not only can I turn each lamp on and off individually, but I can turn all the lamps on and off as a set! It doesn't matter what button I used to turn them on. Even if I turn on the lamps individually, I can easily press the Off Button 5 to turn off all the lamps at once! I love this!

The instructions were not very detailed as to how to configure the remote control. It's actually very easy. So let me include some basic instructions on how to program the outlet controllers with the remote control.

To pair an outlet controller with a remote:
 (1) Plug the outlet controller into the wall socket.
 (2) Press and hold the learning button until a light begins to flash, then let go.
 (3) Press the button on the remote that you want to control the outlet controller.

That's it! So simple! Repeat the steps above for any remote button you want. Each on and off button works independently so you can configure it any way you want.

You can pair any button on the remote to any outlet controller, even if the button has already been paired with another outlet controller.

Important to note: there are different versions of these outlet switches. The newer designs do NOT block the second outlet, while the older ones do. I bought the 3-pack for the newer version.

I've been using them in my 810 sq ft. 1-bedroom apartment for a few months now, and I love them! I have three lamps, the switches of which are difficult to reach on a regular basis, and the remote control makes it extraordinarily easy to turn them on and off at will. It was also very easy to program the buttons to each switch (I labeled the buttons on the remote with Sharpie to help me remember which switch was controlled by which button, but the control is labeled with numbers by default), and it was also a matter of seconds to program the 4th button to turn all the lights on or off simultaneously. I'm certain if I bought a 4th switch, it would be easy to program it to the same remote.

My only con is that there's no built-in loop or attachment to enable hanging the remote from the wall or something. I could envision the little control getting lost easily in a house. I worked past this by putting a rubber band with an attached jump ring around the circumference of the remote and hanging it from a thumbtack, but it's worth noting.

This new version is MUCH better than the previous one. Nearly perfect. Each outlet can be joined to multiple remotes and also multiple buttons on the same remote. The remotes are NOT interchangeable (they must have different codes internally) The directions are not terribly clear on this point, but each time you "learn" a remote it *adds* to the ones the outlet knows. You can clear the whole set by holding down the button as you plug in the outlet for several seconds. Range and reliability seems quite good. I would give it 5 stars except:

One of 6 I ordered had a manufacturing defect (bad solder joint). However this was a small issue as the company offered me a replacement immediately. Also the "doesn't block other outlet" claim is not quite true. It does partially block the second outlet: you can plug in a small plug sometimes but any normal sized 3-prong plug will not fit.

Nothing complicated about set up or anything. The task was to bring remote control over two lamps. No short comings or difficult situations. It does what it is said to do.

This product does everything I expected it to and more. The customization and set up were quick and easy with the supplied instructions and the day to day function is absolutely outstanding. They met or exceeded my expectations at every turn. The only reason I didn't give these a 4 star review is the light that functions when the device is supplying power.

SET UP and FUNCTION: 5 OUT OF 5

The set up is absolutely amazing while it is simple and straightforward enough anyone should be able to understand it, it offers enough customization that you will be able to work it to use exactly how you want it. You simply plug it in, press and hold the learning button until the light flashes, press the button you want to program it too. You can program one outlet to multiple buttons and multiple outlets to one button. The way I have it set up now is 1, 2, and 3 turn appliances on individually, while 5 cycles them all on or all off. This works extremely well, turning them on individually 5 will still be able to turn them off, turn them all on with 5 and I can turn them off one by one and leave just one or two of them on. In my bedroom setup where I'm using this to be able to control lights and a fan so I don't kill myself fumbling around in the dark (keep the remote on my nightstand) it works absolutely perfect. I love being able to push one button and cycle all of them off with peace of mind.

LOOK AND COMPATIBILITY: 3.5 OUT OF 5

Alright when it comes to this there are a couple of things that I feel are area's for improvement. While I understand the need for the light for training functions I really wish it weren't on all the time. When powering my fan in my bedroom the light was bright enough to disturb me when it was on at night.
