Can one button on the remote operate multiple light switches? I have several outside lights on different circuits can one button activate them all?

I do not know for sure but I know that you pair a remote without unpairing it from the other switches. Just try to pair the same button to all the switches you want to control.

No. I have mine hooked up to three outside lights on my detached garage but all on the same circuit. Look at this as a replacement for a regular light switch, but with remote capabilities. The work around would require you to put all of these lights on the same circuit if you wanted to use the same switch. I don't know that there is any product out there that will work with multiple circuits.

All lights would have to have power coming from this switch to operate them all.

The remote comes with 3 buttons so you can program each button on the remote to multiple lights.

That depends on how the remote-switch linkage is done. If the switch learns to respond to a particular signal from the remote (I think this is how it is done), there is no reason that multiple switches (whether on the same circuit or different circuits) could not learn to respond to the same remote signal. On the other hand, if the remote learns to send a particular code to activate the switch, you would have to ensure that all the switches you want to control use the same code. I am assuming that you will use multiple switches on different circuits, not a single switch as the other answers appear to assume. That depends on how the remote-switch linkage is done.

Viking here, Yes you can do all these things, but I do not have the exact info. That info can be found at Etekcity.com. They have told me you can run more that one receiver (switch) with one remote and can run as many as 10 receivers with one or two remotes. Talk with them on what you want to do. Hope this helps.

Ooooh. Your situation is different than mine. I think you can have quite a few of these panels working with one main control panel. I'm not to sure about multiple main control panels. Can't you use one less main control panel now that you have these remote one?

I brought two set that each has two remotes and 3 switches. The remotes only have 4 buttons. So it will work only for the 4 buttons. If you have six switches, the extra 2 switches will need to syn with one of the 4 buttons.It sort of makes the extra switches useless you order a 6 button remote.

Yes. The only problem (if you consider it a problem) is that 1 remote controls all of them, throughout the entire house. However, if 1 light is on and 1 off when you press the remote, they will switch (1 turns on & other turns off). Also be aware that these lights are not very bright. If you're looking for a bright work light, you'll be disappointed. If you're only looking for ambient light, they are great. For a work light, I found a great GE (hand wave) motion sensing slim puck light at Home Depot that has only 1 LED and it's at least twice as bright as these are.

Yes. Both remote work the exact same way. I keep one by the bed and one outside. You can control upto 5 switches with 1 remote. You can even program 1 key to operate multiple switches together.

Not 100% sure, but I don't think these can be linked together using a special link: Each individual light has its own link, there is no master switch that can turn several on-off, unless you custom make some hard-wiring and install a master switch. This may be messy depending if you can hide the wiring. Simply connect them to each other by splicing, and install a switch at the beginning of the electric supply.

There is no reason that one switch cannot be operated from two remotes, as long as both remotes are sending on the same frequency. The only way to confirm or deny this would be to purchase two sets, and try using both #1 remotes with one of the switches. Although I haven't tried this, I believe it would work.

Yes you can, just program it as you would any other remote. It won't interfere with the one you currently try have. I set up two using the same button and have no issues. It also allows you to set a button to turn on and off the lights if you have lights set up.

No. You can program up to 5 different remotes, AS I RECALL, which would be all different remotes with different remote codes. The other thing I remember is they did suggest purging out any old remote codes, which is done by entering the new remote code as many times as needed to purge that old one out. I admit I didn't follow this advice, mainly because it is tricky enough to program a new remote once, let alone three or four more times. Don't let that scare you off from programing a remote. I just had to write all the steps down in MS Word, and print them out, and just go for it. In the end, it was all over in a few minutes - and it worked! Ha Ha!

Yes, I have mine wired for one light switch. The fan is controlled by the remote.

Not sure that you can program a remote for more than one base. I believe you'd have to contact manufacturer for that info. Each base has four buttons, each able to program a remote. 2 remotes come w/each base. So would have to purchase more remotes to use all 4 buttons.

If you have a 3 way switch .. two wall switches that will operate one light ... you must replace it with a three way switch. this kit is not two identical switches it's a master and remote setup.

Yes, you can use one remote for multiple strips. I put three strips around my kitchen (under one cabinet and above two others), but use only one of the included remotes to control all three. No instructions needed. I keep the other two remotes as "spares", in case I lose or break the first.

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.

It's to avoid interference with multiple remotes and lights by switching to different channels. Makes each light work with each remote. I have not tested it, but I believe you can control more than one light at the same time (why, who knows?) if you set the dip switches on the lights and remote the same. Otherwise, it's just to avoid interference on one unit.

Yes you can program each remote for a different door or program multiple remotes for the same door
