Saw this at Target tonight. It's marked at $19.99 but comes up under holiday stuff so it was only $6.99 on sale. Figured I would take a chance for $7.00 and I am glad I did. Remote comes with batteries, you can work 3 different outlets off one remote and it's ready to go out of the box. I hooked up a lightbox and neon to it so far and it works perfectly. Says the range is 80ft through walls, doors and windows and the plugs are grounded. Definitely worth checking out if you have a Target near by, you need something like this and don't want to spend a ton of money on it.
