I have 3 lights on my porch that are controlled with one switch inside the house. Can this handle 3 lights?

Yes, assuming you have "normal" porch lights. Timer/switch is rated for up to 1800 watts. Most porch lights don't exceed 100 watts, so three drawing 300 watts is no problem. One of my timers controls two 600 watt transformers (for low voltage yard lights) without a problem.

Easily, unless the total wattage exceeds the switch capacity of 1800 watts (which would be quite unusual).

Sorry, I use the timer on the only switch that controls that particular light. As for three-way operation, the only things I would know would be what is in the instructions.

Depends on what your aiming for. 3 way switches are a pain, and this will add sone interesting complexity. This is just a simple on off, think of it as a light switch that is light sensitive. Your wiring would have to be complex to compensate.

I have one light controller in my setup, but I don't know if there is a limit.

Yes. I have 2 cameras - 2 light switches - 4 switches. They all perform as expected.

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.

I believe it would work however, even though it is 3 way switch can only use 1 switch at a time. Hope this answers your question.

Or you could plug a 3 way adapter like this GE Grounded 3-Outlet Tap, 58368 into the unit and control up to three objects at the same time. As long as you do not go over 300W for incandescent lights. This is what I do with the outside Christmas lights. Works well! Hope that helps, good luck!

Technically it would work (using the NO and NC connections), but this is not the type of relay that you would want. For the other light switch to work, once you activate this relay you would have to leave it that way, which would burn power (not a lot, but not a good idea either). Also, if it were in the activated state with the light off and you had a power drop, the light would most likely turn on when the power came back. To replace a 3-way switch, you really want a latching relay, not a regular one like this.

I'm not an electrian but we have multiple lights running in one line and we use one switch. I don't know if this is what you meaned. For safety purposes it's best that you get the advice of an electrician.

Yes! It really depends on how many lights you install. One or two would be fine.

Yes. There are 2 switches on there so you can run 8 or 4. I suppose you could run 6 if you ran both switched but only put in 6 bulbs.

I used mine for led porch lights. I just replaced my old light fixture with it.

Yes. I'm using it in a room that has 8 LED can lights. That being said, this is a pretty cheap quality product. If at all possible, spend the extra time/money and just wire in a 3 way switch.

If you have the model with a remote control for the light, the toggle switch positions must match. That way you can control multiple lights with one remote.

You should be able to run split lights 2 lights each side of switch if the relay will handle it, and it should with no problem. Nice set up I have it on my fishing boat.

I don't know, it would depend on the strip lights you are trying to power and how much current each one draws. As long as the total current drawn is less than the rated output of this device (5 Amps) you could use only one, otherwise you would need more than one. Using only one for three strips might also cause some hookup problems if you are not technically adapt.
