Is it possible to get two with the same operating frequency, thus one remote would operate two dimmers?

I read in the comments when buying this remote that this is one of the cons. of this item, meaning - yes you would operate your neighbor lights with your remote and vise verse. It looks like in your case this would be a "pro" , enjoy.

I've used about a dozen of these devices and no two were on the same frequency. I think your using two or more in a close proximity would be fine. Each device will work only from it's own remote. The chances of you getting two sets on the same frequency would be very rare in my opinion.

Ours is wired to use two switches. Not an electrician, but I would imagine you could wire them both to one switch if desired.

Yes, you can. I've used this dimmer switch this way for years. You plug the dimmer into the wall, then a multi-plug adapter into the back of it, then both lamps into the multi-plug. I have to use extension cables to reach both lamps on either side of my bed, but the dimmer itself reaches to my night table. With this setup the dimmer controls both lamps. If you want each lamp to be controlled by its own dimmer, you'll need two dimmers.

The master & slave dimmer will only control one series of lights. If the two light sets were wired together and one light switch controlled both at the same time, then the dimmers & remote you bought will control them all at once. However, the two light sets won't be controlled separately with the remote you got. Either all at once, or you'll need seperate dimmers with remote for your second set of lights. I hope that helps you. Good luck!

you cannot you need to wire both strips to the same controller and have one remote you can do it from the low voltage side

not sure if you can do that with this switch unless you find a remote that works on the same frequency

I have received a batch of 6 that all had the same frequency. I was forced to use two of them and they sometimes get out of sequence....one off and the other on. It would take 15-20 tries to get them to match again or you had to "un-plug" on of them to get them matched again. Not a good idea with these dimmers.

Unfortunately No! You will need to purchase another switch only. The remote control has two different frequency settings.

Yes, you can control multiple light bulbs with one remote, they share the same frequency.

I have not tried that. Not sure one remote will control two units, should be on different Freq(s).I too use the remote for my lift and doors. I bought another unit for back up also.I just added a Viper engine remote start, no interference.

To: R. IyerYes, one remote will work on multiple bulbs but if their in close proximity to one another the remote will not keep the bulbs in sync. Say you have a ceiling mount light strip with five bulbs and you press the remote for red one or two may go to red while the others may go to other colors. The remote will not control multiple bulbs if used in this type of setup. Hope this helps! Mike

To my knowlege, the same remote will work for any unit--regardless if it came with that bulb or not. But I do not believe one remote can control more than one bulb at a time. so if you place two units side by side, the remote will only read one at a time. You can use the same remote for either bulb, but it will have to be pointed at each unit to adjust. So one can be blinking red while the other can be fading blue.

From my experience with this light switch, there is only one IR code and consequently no way to separately control multiple light switches in the same room. The Belkin Wemo light switches might better suit your needs.

Accutally I don't know, but I double about it. One remote has its specific frequency to control the three lights, so for my understanding, it only works one to one.

If you use the remote on the master light and the others are set to slave piggy backed one into the other it should work no problem. I have two that I link...one master the other set to slave....I don't see why it wouldn't work with more then 2 lights.

Mike if you want both strips to do exactly the same thing at the same time then yes you just tie 2 strips together with a 4 conductor wire, if you want the 2 strips to do different things, you still can you would just have to block or somehow prevent one eye from 1 controller from seeing the remote as you change the other.
