Why this is useful to you

Getting up to turn things on and off can be difficult if you have limited mobility, chronic pain, tremors, or fatigue. This simple remote control is an all-time favorite because it works with anything that plugs into an outlet, like lamps, fans, or space heaters. Instead of moving across the room or reaching for hard-to-access switches, you can control everyday essentials from wherever you are.

Ways You Can Use It

Control from a Distance

Plug the outlet into the wall, then connect a lamp, fan, or other device so you can turn it on and off with a remote.

Match Each Outlet

Numbered outlets and remote buttons make it easier to know which button controls each device.
