I now have a number of these working well
ADD-ON COMMENTS MAY 26, 2016 - It's been over a year now since I installed this and I must say the set up has worked flawlessly. My garden lights come on and because it's based on sunset times, I never have to adjust for seasonal changes or daylight savings time changes, the way I would have to with those pesky clock timers that come with the garden light transformers. I had one instance where a rain storm tripped the GFIC and I texted my house keeper to hit the re-set on the GFIC and all was good. I have also one of these receptacles control a robotic web cam. That has worked really well also, as I use it to re-boot the webcam from Canada if I needed to. I've done this 2x in the past year. Sometimes I need to check or confirm something late at night and I can turn on the garden lights and have a look around with the webcam. The LED set up is dope! I get the equivalent of 300 watts of lighting using only 1/10 the power. I will deploy more of these at another house for a similar set-up. Truly allows great control and flexibility in a vacation home.
MY ORIGINAL REVIEW: Perfect, installation was a breeze, paired no problem on my Schlage Nexia z-wave network. I put a GFCI before it, put it in a nice bubble cover (Hubbell MM2420C) now I can script and remotely control my garden lights (Malibu 8301-9601-01 50 Watt Cast Metal Flood Lights, Black Matte) in coastal Fl. I am doing this from Canada. The lights come on 15 minutes before sunset and shut off at 11PM. The lights are running Sunthin MR-16 5 watt LED's, driven by a 60 watt Ledwholesalers LED Power Suppply Driver Transformer 120 to 12 Volt DC Output, Water Resistance, 60 Watt, 3204-12V. Most of the previously mentioned items have been purchased through Amazon as one order. :-) I love it when everything comes together.
