A:  We used a Vertical Mount Electrical Outlet Cover. Unfortunately the unit stopped working after being left outdoors for the second winter.

A:  Hello Tucci, thank you for your question. The dimensions of the receiver is 4" H (Top to Bottom) x 2" W (Left to Right) x 1.25" L (Front to Back).

A:  I use it on my table saw (1 1/2) HP and also on my shop vacuum.

A:  Yes, I have one and I use it to reset my router when needed. I've used this for other items also, including to turn on and off a garage light.

A:  This is rated to a maximum of 15A through both outlets so as long as your shop vac does not exceed that or the rating of your circuit you should be fine. Most 1HP shop vacs use about 10A of current but check your owners manual or specs online for your specific shop vac.

A:  Since this is rated for 15 amps and the diameter of the six-inch long AC cord is 3/8 of an inch, I would guess that it is 14 gauge.

A:  I don't know the gauge but I used Flex Tape to seal the power supply connection. The spray from the sprinkler system use to short it out.

A:  It resets to the off state when there is a power failure.

A:  No, if you lose power when the device is on, it will reset to off when the power comes back.

A:  No it doesn't have a memory. After a power failure it will have to be re-energized to turn back on. I tested mine by unplugging it and then plugging it back in.

A:  "Can additional remotes be purchased seperately?"

A:  I have been using it for a couple of years. The answer is yes, it will stay programmed. After power outages. Good product I have no problems with it

A:  ?

A:  Yes...
