I live with my elderly mother and thought they were a great idea. I bought two sets one for me to use upstairs and one for her to use downstairs. Unfortunately, they both are on the same frequency. When I turn on mine it turns hers and vice versa. Therefore unless you want two lights/appliances operating at the same time; one set is essentially useless. You could always keep one set and give the second as a gift.

My husband and I looked at the packaging and remote. It is NOT a multi-channel remote. So, we would guess that if you bought two of them there is a chance that they may be on the same channel and you wouldn't be able to change them.

I cannot verify, but i believe so! you are simply programming each system to one pushbutton. If you already have a wired doorbell, you can use this to extend. So when your wired pushbutton is pressed, your wired doorbell will ring downstairs and your wireless will ring upstairs

This switch doesn't directly control power to the fan/light -- it's simply a remote control that is powered by wire rather than battery. If you want to be able to control the fan from two doorway areas, you could certainly buy two controllers and just set both of the signal switches to the same code. I'm not sure I've answered your question but hope it helps.

According to the video with the product producer over at Buy.com, you can sync many surge protectors to the same remote and even have the remote on different floors if you wanted. Adversely, you can also have many remotes each controlling specific surge protectors, too.

This one does that. The single remote control individually controls each of the three remote electrical outlets. To turn off all three outlets you have to push each button 1,2,3 on the remote. If you want to push ONE button on the remote to simultaneously turn off all three outlets, that is a different device.

Yes. I was able to program two openers with the same touch pad. The instructions indicate you can program for multiple openers, but does not indicate a limit to how many. In my case, I have two codes entered so that I can open one or the other door.

The toggle switches inside the remote must match your control box. It's all manual settings, nothing is automatic with these remotes. It has 9-10 manual switches inside the remote, up - down - center, provides you with many different combinations for security reasons.

There is no reason that one switch cannot be operated from two remotes, as long as both remotes are sending on the same frequency. The only way to confirm or deny this would be to purchase two sets, and try using both #1 remotes with one of the switches. Although I haven't tried this, I believe it would work.

The company says that both are possible, adding outlets or remotes. They say the added outlets or remotes can use a learning phase to all use one code. Contact the company for more details. Hope this helps. Viking

No. You can buy a remote that will control several of these. Or you can buy a controller that will allow you to control the outlet or mutilple outlets or switches with your smart phone or to set up lights to come on and turn off at certain times. There are also light switches that will replace an existing switch that you could also use to control this outlet. If you are just wanting one remote device, depending on what your planning to plug in, there are several different types of controller out there. Lowes sells a lamp switch with a remote.

NO , sorry you will have to push 2 buttons. You could, if you really wanted to, wire the two lamps together. Also note these are too big to use 2 on one outlet , you have to use a power strip. These are well made and work very well. I have 6 , one by itself, 5 on one remote (5 buttons) sitting next to my recliner and I love them. Hope this helps.

Well, I will tell you that each wireless switch has a wireless frequency. When I ordered two, they both came with a sticker on them that said channel "D". This is a bad thing if you don't want the two to interact with each other. If you want two switches to turn on two lights, it can be a good thing. Not want I wanted, so I responded to the company with my complaint. They said they usually don't give refunds or exchanges, but would in my case. The gave me a UPS postage to send it back and they sent me a new switch with wireless frequency "E". I don't see how to specify a frequency on the page, but it is important if you want two separate switches. Other than that, it's a great product. Works fine.

I just bought a second transmitter and switch and I tested the new switch with the other transmitter I have (purchased a few months ago) and the old switch did not respond to the new transmitter. So it appears the answer to your question is no, and that these are somewhat like car door keys where the transmitter and switch are a pair and one "key" (transmitter) will only open the door of one car (switch), not every car that's in range. This makes sense because someone might want to have multiple switches in the same space and not have them all respond every time any transmitter is used.

This dimmer switch doesn't have a third wire that is used to operate remote switches. For that you need a 3-way switch. They do sell such beasts here if you are so inclined. I use the singl pole dimmable switches in regular rooms, and the three way switches in the hallways and stairs.

I've looked, but it seems the answer is no. Even if you buy another complete set (I have 2), the remotes are not universal. In other words, I cannot use my bedroom remote to turn off my living room outlets and vice versa. I can only use the remote that came with the 3 outlets to control them. This contradicts what John says below, but it may be because I've purchased my units a year apart from each other. Maybe the new ones are on a different frequency or something.

Yes, you need two or more of these. These are especially good for house to house since they transmit and receive a relatively long distance. Regular so-called wireless intercoms depend on the house electrical wiring and do not often work if the units are in different houses. Remember, since these transmit over the air, your communication can be monitored by others who use the same channels within a few miles.
