Product Information

Full details

The HBN Remote Control Plug Socket 5-Pack is designed for homeowners seeking convenient, wireless control over their household appliances and lighting systems. It offers the key benefit of managing devices from up to 100 feet away, effectively eliminating the need to reach behind furniture or walk across the room to toggle switches. However, prospective users should note that the system operates on a radio frequency signal, which may be obstructed by thick walls or large metal objects, potentially limiting range in certain home layouts.

FAQs

Can I use these outdoors?

No, these sockets are rated for indoor use only and should be kept away from moisture.

Do the remotes come with batteries?

Please check the specific packaging, but generally, it is recommended to have compatible replacement batteries on hand as they are required for operation.

Will one remote control all five sockets?

Yes, the system is designed to allow the included remotes to communicate with the sockets provided in the pack.

Can I add more remotes later?

The system is sold as a pre-paired set; adding remotes from other sets may not work depending on the frequency coding.

Does it work with smart home assistants like Alexa?

No, this is a dedicated radio frequency remote system and does not connect to Wi-Fi or smart home voice assistants.

Troubleshooting

Remote fails to activate the socket

Verify the battery in the remote is fully charged and check if the plug is seated correctly in the wall outlet.

Intermittent response from the socket

Ensure there are no large metal obstructions between the remote and the plug, as these can interfere with radio frequency signals.

Plug not turning off

Ensure the appliance is within the 13A current limit and perform a power cycle by unplugging the unit for 10 seconds before plugging it back in.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up your HBN sockets involves simply plugging the receiver into a standard grounded wall outlet and connecting your appliance into the receiver's socket. The system arrives pre-paired, though instructions are provided if re-syncing is ever required. To ensure longevity, avoid exposing the units to water or outdoor elements, as they are designed for indoor use only. Clean the exterior of the sockets periodically with a dry, soft cloth, and ensure the remote batteries are replaced when you notice a decrease in operating range or responsiveness.
