Hi all,

I've got a basic remote control plug kit that I bought (of all places!) from Notcutts Garden Centre for £15!

It works fine and I can turn our three sidelights on & off using the small 4 button receiver.

The thing that puzzles me is why it has 4 on/off buttons, when it's a three pack for 3 devices....

It has 4 on and 4 off buttons, but what on earth is that 4th button for?

Anyway, I've just ordered a Harmony One to replace our recently deceased 885 and I'm wondering if I can program that to control the lights?

Thanks.

[Edit] - Actually, I'm not sure if the Notcutts unit is even Infra Red, so if that's the case what are my options?

its not its a 433Mhz RF remote same as used with garage door openers harmony wont control these devices and scodes are normally proprietry so you will have to use original remote why a 4 button remote it may just be thats the standard button layout

Thanks, are there any cheap IR kits that I can buy to operate the lights using a Harmony One?

Varilight IR dimmer switches are the cheapest
