If I have these installed close to each other (36 in apart) can I program each light a different color or will they all pick up the same RC command?

They will all respond to one remote. But with the memory function you could set each one individually having them powered up one at a time. Then turn them all on and they will resume their last setting which could all be different colors. As soon as you use the remote they will all sync to each the same remote command.

It's acually IR not RC. So if you get close to the bulb and point the remote yeah you can get each to do whatever you like. Other thing to keep in mind is that the sensor is on the front. Sometimes the front bezel on the housing cover can block the signal. That's what happened to me.

If the lights are installed closely to each other, they are very likely to pick up the same signal from the remote when you operate the remote. However, you can create a physical barrier and "isolate" the light bulb that you need to be a different color.

Like David Ishmael said, wire them in parallel. I have two of these connected to one light and it works as expected. Be prepared for a bit of work to get these in and looking good. I think the time and effort was worth it.

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

Yes, one remote will work with two lights. I run two sets of lights that are close together with one remote. They must be all on the same frequency. I also bought the lights on two separate dates from different stores, and they still work off one remote.

Out of the box, units operate independently, therefore will not have any problems using one for the ceiling and another one for the floor. Note that multiple controllers may be programmed to be operated by a single remote. Keep in mind that in such a configuration, the lights connected to different controllers may not change colors at exactly the same time (in auto color-changing mode).

To answer your question. You can run each unit individually, seperate from the others. You just have to switch back to that unit's program I order to change anything with speed or lighting.

Yes. You can set them up in scenes which are scheduled on and off times. You can do this individually or groups of lights. Very easy to program and works great.

I don't think so. I believe that the remotes are IR and are not set for each particular light since I use the same remote for a bulb as well as the flood. Hope this helps and answers your question.

I think you will have to program them at the same time . One after the other . Program the first one then the other one right after each other

I believe that you can select a different channel for each of them to operate on. In the description for both it says they are "command one programmable".

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.

I don't think so but, if you can afford to experiment, see what happens. Me I thinke it might be wiser to use 2 sets of lights. with separate dimers. This would be the save way to do it.

Each set will need a master and a companion (if using a multi-location, 3way). You can use the same remote for each set but they will both pick up the signal if you're putting the switches near each other. So, if that isn't y our intention, you might want to rethink. I have my LR and Kitchen on different walls to avoid this, but use one remote to control each separately.

Yes one remote would control both (or more than 2) dimmers. Unfortunately for those wanting to have several different sets of lights (for example ceiling lights and plugged in table lights on two different dimmers) this can't be done. All the remotes and switches use the same IR code so you can't address each dimmer separately. A big shame.

I haven't put any together in series. When I mentioned that I used two of the slowly changing (as opposed to FLASHING), they were separate LEDs pointing at slightly separate points on the ceiling. I used 2 AAs to power each light, and 3 AA batteries to make them very bright. Four exceeds their capacity. I threw that trial away.

Sure, easy to do. What I did was to run the power cable to each light, just be sure tohook them up in parallel and not series.

Unfortunately no. I have 3 on my tank so I grouped the three controllers together and use one remote. One command from remote will effect all three lights.
