Tools and Hardware Reviews of Skylink WS-100/WS-100N Wireless Remote Control, Channel A
Customer Review: A fine product
Summary: 3 Stars
I inserted the unit in a waterproof box behind a masonry wall. It works consistently at about 50 feet. I wanted it to work at 75 feet (which would bring it into the house), but it consistently does not. Not bad--and I really didn't expect it to work through the box and wall--but not as perfect as I would have liked.Customer Review: A very good product
Summary: 5 Stars
I Purchased this item to control an outdoor fountain. The distance from our front deck to the fountain is about 50ft. With the one exception noted below, this item has worked everytime on the first click and without interference to other remote controls in use. In my initial temporary installation of the unit, I was not careful to install the remote vertically with the plug-in receptical down as noted in the instructions. Water got into the unit during a heavy rain and the unit stopped working. After drying it out, it worked just fine. This is one reliable, tough product, and well worth the price.Customer Review: Almost "OK" - wait a second...

This requires a small 12 volt battery (many of these things do; I think It could have been made to operate with an easy-to-find 9v battery). The battery compartment of the remote has a flimsy lid and installing the battery between two metal retainer prongs had me get out my swiss army knife.
The main unit seems to be solidly constructed. It's not 100% solid sate -- you can hear a relay click when switching it on and off. It takes about a second to recover form an on OR off state. In other words, you must wait one second to turn it on again after it's been switched off. And vice versa.
Customer Review: Automatic Remote

This product works extremely well. The distance I used it was approximately 100 feet.. It turned a light in my porch on and off..Customer Review: BEST WIRELESS REMOTE AROUND
Summary: 5 Stars
Let me say first of all this is a great product.I bought two of these for my outside lights and they work every time.It is an under statement to say that i have tried several other brands and they all stopped working in two days.I almost gave up and went to timers but i like to control my lights.I am so happy that amazon is selling this product and it really works.I am going to buy another one with channel B so i can control my fire place blower fan,and yes i checked to make sure it would handle the amperage.To sum it up the remotes work great and the controlers are made well.Thanks Amazon !
