This was a great alternative to climbing in the attic and running wire for a 3 way. Only problem is if you want to install in a 2 gang box, it doesn't fit very well. Other than that, it works great.

The switch functions as advertised. However, in the dark, groping for the small operating point is very inconvenient. Also the remote switch is an odd blue color rather than the normal white.

The odd blue color may be a reflection from the blue LED's on the WE-001 wire switch. To turn on the lights you either press the square switch on the wired switch or the flip the remote switch. Neither one is difficult to operate. We are sorry it wasn't to your liking. SKYLINK

Great product. Easy to install. Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because the battery on the remote switch died within the 1st few weeks. Easy to replace however.

I would have liked to give this a 5 star review, but 4 stars was generous. While the remote switch works well when close to the transmitter switch, the range is very limited. I originally placed the switches about 40 feet apart, well within the stated range. Performance was intermittent. When I moved the remote switch to 30 feet in a less desired location, it worked fine. Extending the antenna by splicing in a longer wire helped. The switch is useful for a limited line of sight distance or under 30 feet, which may be satisfactory for hallways and staircases requiring a three way switch.

Dear Customer:

Thank you for your purchase and great review of the our product. You might want to replace the battery to see if that helps the range. These normally have 500 foot range. Please feel free to contact us at 1-800-304-1187 from Monday-Friday between 9am-5pm EST or by email at support@skylinkhome.com.

Battery Life is Terrible
I purchased and installed this in October of 2019. It functioned fairly well, though as noted in some other reviews there is a long delay between hitting the remote switch and the light turning on and off. The original battery died in January of 2020, only 3 months. The replacement battery lasted until February 2020, one single month. This is entirely unacceptable and I do not recommend this at all.

    When ordering, it was not made clear, that the main switch did not have the filler switch,black in color, or as I ordered, the remote unit,to match the color of the other switches in my house. It does work nicely & when I receive the remote, to snap into the main switch, will match the other switches in my switch panel.

    A bit flaky, but working now.
    This unit solved a problem for us, we have a garage located about 20 m from our house. The garage is wired separately from the house, but we wanted to be able to turn on/off the garage soffit lighting from the house. I installed the receiver switch in the garage and put the transmitter in the house beside two other switches inside the front door. The directions were a bit hard to follow (poorly written) but I did eventually get it working. I did have a problem however; I mounted the transmitter close to the other switches and then placed a 3 -gang switch cover over all three of them (looking very tidy). The problem showed up the first night, we found our soffit lights on in the middle of the night. This continued for several days/nights - the lights would come on randomly and would be difficult to shut-off. Finally, I was so disgusted that I was going to take it back, so I began by removing the 3-gang switch cover, the lights were on and off randomly while I was doing this. It made me think the switch cover might have something to do with it. So I left it open for a few days - and it behaved perfectly. The final solution - I moved the transmitter about 3 cm from the other switches and used the switch cover that came with the unit. It has worked fine ever since (about 2 weeks). Would I recommend this to a friend? Not really, after I explain all of my problems, they would probably not buy it.

    The system works well electrically. Problem is the mounting and instructions. The manufacturer cannot be contacted for farther instructions and the accompanying instructions are a joke. Retail sales cannot offer help and manufacturer will not answer phone. The mounting is very tricky, make sure you know how to mount. Seller not willing to compensate for remounting. Buyers be warned.
