 I am time testing this product December 12, 2008
I purchased this product because the first one burned out within a few months of buying the system. I will need to wait and see how long this one will last. The system came with 2 modules. the other is still working fine
 No brainer! March 18, 2008
Plug it in and it works. No effort required! Just make sure you purchase the right model for what you're plugging into it. They'll toast if you overload them!
 Works as designed March 5, 2008

At present I have an Intermatic Home Settings master controller with two Wireless Plug-In Indoor Lamp Modules, #HA03C, and I am pleased with how they work. I just ordered two more of these Wireless Plug-In indoor lamp modules. These modules work well. And will even work with compact fluorescent lighting without the dim capacity. Though I heard a humming from the florescent lights that are not present when incandescent bulbs are used. The only reason I do not give these modules a five star rating is there physical configuration. If you place them in a power strip, they cover up two additional plugs because of their height. And only one can be placed in any standard wall outlet since they have this rather tall profile.
Excellent product, works with Harmony 890 but lacks documentation January 24, 2008
9 out of 9 found this review helpful
I'm using several of these with my Logitech Harmony 890 remote, and my review is thus concerned primarily with the use of the product with that remote. Thus, if you have an Intermatic controller, most of this info is not relevant to you except for the following sentence:
The modules work just as I'd hoped they would -- quietly, quickly, and reliably -- with my compact flourescent lighting. No flickering :^)
For Harmony 890 users: the only downside I encountered using the Intermatic modules was the almost useless documentation they came with. The manufacturer clearly assumes that you'll be using these items with their own controllers, and the 'instructions' basically say 'for setup instructions see the instructions that came with your Intermatic controller'. Useless advice in my case, and the absence of documentation explaining how to pair the module with an Intermatic controller meant I had no "hints" to tell me how I might go about pairing with the Harmony remote.
This shortfall kept me scratching my head for about a half-hour; it transpires that in the Logitech setup application, you must first define a sort of virtual Z-Wave device for each module using the 'Add a device' option, _then_ pair these freshly-defined modules with your remote. Absent any instructions from Logitech or Intermatic, I first tried to pair the module, then use the Logitech app to configure the paired device; that doesn't work :-P
After figuring that part out, the rest was a breeze: just plug the device in to an A/C receptacle, set up your remote to look for a new RF device (the Logitech app and the remote's Assistant will prompt you), then press the little button on top of the module (BRIEFLY! just tap it; a long press will not work!) and your remote should "notice" the device.
Timesaver: define ALL your modules first, then pair them all in one "session" (vs. defining your first module, pairing it, then defining the second module, etc). Otherwise you'll be spending a lot of time going back and forth pairing up each module and waiting for that *slow* Logitech configuration app to do it's thing. Do them all as a batch, and you only need do the pairing excercise (and the USB connect/disconnect) once.
Once you've finished pairing, reconnect the 890 to the USB port and set up some Scenes with your now-recognized modules, then map those scenes to various activities. For example you might configure "All 50%" to define half your lights turned on and half of them off, then map that scene to "Watch DVD". When you press the "Watch DVD" softbutton on the 890, your DVD-watching equipment will turn on as usual, but your lights will also turn on (or off) according to how you set the Scene :-) When you're done watching TV/DVD for the night, hit the 'RF Control' softbutton that will appear on your Activities screen, then hit the 'All Off' softbutton to turn off all your lights at once.
Enjoy!
High failure rate - only 1 of 3 still working after 1 year of use January 7, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Purchased three of these at the same time.
Upon connecting and pairing all three with their associated light circuits, 2 of them worked right off and the other one made a big flash and loud noise and tripped a circuit breaker (all 3 were on different breakers). The one that blew was just connected to a regular 60w table light, too.
Essentially one out of the three was DOA.
Edit from Nov 2008 - a second unit also failed after about 8 months of use, though it was less dramatic. After 8 months of normal behavior it began only working at dimming levels of 50%-100%, then at 10 months it stopped working completely.
