 Does not work in the cold January 1, 2008

I bought this remote to control my outdoor Christmas lights. I tested it in my house when it first arrived. It worked fine. But after installing it on my deck, it stopped working after about 10 minutes. It does not like to operate in the cold weather. When I brought it back indoors, it worked again after it warmed up. Amazon sent me a replacement for it, but that one also did not work after being exposed to the cold. I am not talking about severe cold (e.g. below zero). Both remotes stopped functioning in 28F weather. I finally bought a similar product from my local Ace hardware store, and it has worked flawlessly.

I bought this remote for my roomlight to help me get up in the morning. (I live in a loft and have no windows) So instead of getting up and turing on this light, I can now remotely turn it on.
Pros:
1. Comes with an extra battery
2. Good build quality
3. Nice remote (comes with a key chain holder)
4. Plugs in and then the cord extends (pictured)
Cons:
1. A little big for indoor use as it is on the bulkier side. (not a problem for me as it hides behind a sofa)
Also it was on Amazon Prime.. so free shipping!
Didn't work at 35 degrees December 24, 2007

Bought it because it was rated outdoor with a temperature range -30 to +45 degrees C. Hooked up in afternoon at 55 degrees F and it worked fine. Tonight at 35 degrees it didn't work. It's only controlling a 60 watt bulb. Bought it in and after about 20 minutes after it had warmed up
it started to work again. I paid a premium for 1 day delivery and product didn't meet it's spec.

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RFWHEBQVI2JSD I like to read books before i go to sleep - every time i'm done reading, i had to walk across the room to switch the lights off. So lazy i am that i ended up buying this to use it indoors for my tube light. It works like a charm, never gave me any problems. I even tried controlling it from the next room and also from outside the house and it was still able to receive the requests. The only problem is, once in a while i lose the remote and would have to manually remove the kit from the power outlet to use the lights, it wouldh've been nice if they provided with an on/off switch on the receiver too. Otherwise, the product works as stated in the description.
special use for a pipe smoker December 21, 2007

This item was probably overkill for me, but I'm lazy. I smoke pipes and when I'm in my comfy chair, I don't want to have to get up to turn on my vent fan (Honeywell window 2-way fan... see my good review for that item) if it isn't already on for some reason.
With this little gadget, I can turn it on and off anytime I want to light up, so I don't have to get up.
Works great, but of course I'm using it indoors.
