    Was in friends house and he recently got the remote control sockets in Lidl a couple of weeks ago. Very handy for going to bed and getting up in the mornin. Anyone know where might have some left or another place to pick them up. Saw them on ebay for about €50 incl. postage. Anyone do any better??
    Coming to christmas decoration time and will save having to get down on all fours to get behind the tree and turn on the lights...

    simple. plug one in, and hold the learn button on the plug socket while pressing the on/off button on the remote for the corresponding number.. say you want it to work on number 3.. then hit learn on the socket and click on/off on 3

    simple
