In your home it is important that you feel comfortable, this includes a certain amount of convenience in your own home. You may feel like you are being a little lazy but with the aid of small electronic aids such as radio outlets and controls can increase the convenience of controlling your electrical equipment that can make life easier around your home.

What are radio outlets and how do they work?

Radio outlets are small devices that can be installed between the standard wall outlet and the power cord of any technical device. It is now the power supply for the connected device on & off via a remote control. Most sets you get offered, consisting of 2-8 radio outlets and the remote control. You can control several radio outlets via a remote control enabling you to power on and off these electrical devices via the remote control.

Applications for radio outlets

An electric outlets can be good for many uses, popular applications include the control of floor lamps and lights, for this there are also remote devices with integrated dimmer controls. Another popular use is to help you get easy access to hard to reach sockets, for example, behind a TV with the remote making the wall socket easily controlled.

Radio outlets can also help to save electricity : If you are connecting via a power strip, for example, a television, a DVD player and a satellite receiver to a single wireless socket, then you can control each one independently with the buttons on the remote control.

Radio outlets themselves do consume electricity, although very little, but there are a few models in which this power consumption is excessively high, this should be reviewed before picking the models for your home. Nevertheless, a radio outlet still consumes much less than, for example, the stand-by consumption of TVs, DVD players and satellite receivers, just as in the example above.

The range of the remote control is around 20-30 meters, they can also pass through one or two walls in a large apartment allowing you to remotely control your sockets in other rooms.
