Does the switch just control the outlet or does it have a light itself?

The device is two components: the switch and the outlet. The switch will control (turn on and off) anything that you plug into the outlet (whether a light or other electrical device). I use it to control a string of under the cabinet lights that would otherwise be left on all the time if just plugged into a regular wall outlet.

Yes the switch controls the outlet. Anything plugged into that outlet is controlled by the switch. We use several of these switches & recommend them to anyone.

It just controls the outlet. However, as one answerer commented I thought mine was acting erratically too. However, I soon learned it was the lamp that was causing the problem. Switched it to the outlet on a different lamp and had no problem.

You plug the little outlet into your wall outlet then plug your lamp into the Little plug. The switch can be placedAnywhere in the room. I have two in my home and love them. This only works with lamps you can plug in.

The switch controls the outlet. We have under- cabinet lights plugged into it.

It just controls an outlet. There is no light with it. It works great but you have to remember to change the battery in it occasionally.

As others have said, the (remote control-like) switch controls the portable outlet only and does not come with it's own light.

Just the outlet. I do not recommend this product. Mine behaved very erratically.

The switch runs off of battery, the outlet is powered by the outlet you plug it into

It has a switch in the electric cord running from rhe fixture to the electric plug in. Very easy to operate.

The night light operates on a switch leg, the same as any other light. When I wired up my heat, light, night light, and vent. I used this switch for the vent, heat, and night light and beside this switch I install a separate switch for the light and tied it in with all the other lights in the restroom.

Yes, there is a light....very useful in finding the switch in the dark. I like the switch very much!

if the switch controlling the light fixture is on then the outlets on this adapter will be on. there is nothing special in this adapter to control the power.

If you leave the lamp in the on position and the switch turns on/off one or both of the female plugs, iand you plug the lamp into the controlled outlet, it should.

The switch is at one end of the cord and the end that goes into the outlet is at the other end. You plug the cord into the outlet and your lamp (or whatever) into the cord at the outlet end. The switch is on the other end.

No. All light operations are controlled by how you set it up and the manual on/off switch on your wall.

The switch is a small push on/off button located on the bottom of the light. It can be seen in the pictures of this item. It is made of soft synthetic rubber. It is ambidextrous.

No individual switch; it is ment to be hardwired and turned on with a wall switch. Both bulbs light.

We are using it without a light switch. However, you should know the pull cords don't work when this is installed.

This is a Power strip, not Surge protector, It has a power switch with a built in light on the switch.

The switch and the outlet operate independently. I have this installed inside a bathroom closet to operate the overhead light fixture and also juice up a rechargeable razor - the razor still charges even when the light is off.

The nightlight is it's own separate switch, it can be on or off regardless of what else is going on.

Brenda - It's designed to be operated by a wall switch, which connects to the fitting on the mounting plate that the plug goes into. It would normally be wired in like a ceiling light fitting.

Yes from the first one I got it seem there is an option for "L" switch for Light fixture Outlet usage and "O" for not light usage. "L" switch will sense ambient light and not turn on while "O" will turn on the outlet when it detect motion. My seem bad I order a replacement as it not sensitive on my garage. There is a timer to set from 2 minutes to up at max at 6 minutes.
