Editorial Reviews
Product Description:
Control indoor X10 and freewire lights. Control an indoor light without running wires! Just plug the lamp into this Black & Decker Freewire Indoor 300w Lamp Module, then plug it into an outlet, and the light can now be turned on or off, or dimmed and brightened, from any INSTEON or X10 controller in the house. Please note: This Lamp Module should not be used with fluorescent or low voltage lamps. Do you already use X10 components for your home's automation? The Freewire system will blend in seamlessly. All Freewire plug-in modules (indoor and outdoor lamp receivers as well as the messenger hub's built-in lamp module) can be controlled by standard X10 controllers. The indoor lamp receiver will even accept dimming commands transmitted by a standard X10 controller. The HomeLink Wireless Control System is a factory-installed feature packaged on many vehicle models, providing a convenient way to replace up to three handheld radio-frequency transmitters used to activate devices such as gate operators, garage door openers, entry door locks, security systems and home lighting. Freewire products are compatible with select 2001 and newer HomeLink-equipped vehicles. Programming instructions for HomeLink are included in the instruction guide for this Freewire product.

Content: I bought three of these from a B&D outlet store. Nowhere on the product packaging does it state that the unit works ONLY with plain old incandescent light bulbs. No low-energy florescent bulbs, no dimmers, no low-voltage halogen lamps, or anything else that uses a transformer or ballast. It also seems to not work if plugged into a surge suppressor. As a result of these limitations, the only lamps in my house that work with the units are night lights.
Summary: OK, but very, very limited
