    The Black & Decker Freewire Complete Set is an expandable system that's easily set up in only a few minutes, and once programmed, you'll be able to turn on lights with a push of a button from across the room or across your house. No rewiring is necessary: If you can plug in a lamp, you can use the Freewire system, which will even work seamlessly with your existing X10 components. Add modules to operate additional indoor lights, outdoor lights, and small appliances and electronics.

    The Black & Decker Freewire Keyfob & Receiver Kit includes a messenger hub and a key chain remote. The messenger hubs are the brains of your expandable Freewire system that double as lamp modules. When plugged into an AC outlet, messenger hubs have the ability to receive RF signals from the key chain remotes and relay these wireless messages to any Freewire receiver dialed to the same house code.

    The Keyfob & Receiver Kit's key chain remote provides convenient control of lights or groups of lights, small electronics, and more from the palm of your hand and will work with all Freewire components. The key chain remote will turn one unit code and one group on and off; it will also turn all Freewire-enabled lights and appliances on and off at once. Freewire's 256 channels and 64,000 unique codes ensure a secure system for your home.

    The Black & Decker Freewire Remote, Lamp Module, Receiver includes a messenger hub and an indoor remote as well as a lamp module, so you'll actually be able to control two separate lamps with this starter system. The indoor lamp receiver will even accept dimming commands transmitted by a standard X10 controller. The included indoor remote comes with a mountable holder and works with all Freewire components. This remote will turn three units and two groups on and off; it will also turn all Freewire-enabled lights and appliances on and off at once.

    The Black & Decker Freewire Indoor/Outdoor Starter Kit contains everything you'll need to turn on four indoor or outdoor incandescent lights with a push of a button. This kit includes a messenger hub and an indoor remote as well as a non-dimming lamp module and two outdoor receivers. The included indoor remote comes with a mountable holder and works with all Freewire components. This remote will turn three units and two groups on and off; it will also turn all Freewire-enabled lights and appliances on and off at once.

    Use the two outdoor lamp receivers to control indoor or outdoor incandescent, fluorescent, halogen and low-voltage lights rated up to 500 watts. The outdoor lamp receiver does not have a code wheel, but it's still easy to program using the messenger hub. You can even use it with an extension cord. Ideal for controlling low-voltage landscape and holiday lighting, the outdoor lamp receivers are weather-resistant for outdoor use.

    Do you already use X10 components for your home's automation? The Freewire system will blend in seamlessly. All Freewire plug-in modules (indoor and outdoor lamp receivers as well as the messenger hub's built-in lamp module) can be controlled by standard X10 controllers.

    The HomeLink Wireless Control System is a factory-installed feature packaged on many vehicle models, providing a convenient way to replace up to three handheld radio-frequency transmitters used to activate devices such as gate operators, garage door openers, entry door locks, security systems and home lighting. Freewire products are compatible with select 2001 and newer HomeLink-equipped vehicles. Programming instructions for HomeLink are included in the instruction guide for this Freewire product.

    Expand your Freewire system by adding more 300-watt Indoor Lamp Modules or 500-watt Outdoor Lamp Modules. Additional RF bases with remotes are also available to be purchased separately.

    DAVID -- doraville, GA   11/18/2007
    Very easy to install and use. Works very well; perfect for inside holiday lighting!
    NICK -- akron, OH   6/20/2007
    I like to be able to control lighting from any location. These modules allow me to do that. They also make great presents for gadget people! I love X-10, Insteon, Freewire, and all realted products.
    JOE -- mount dora, FL   5/18/2007
    Only problem is getting the outdoor units to work on our yard lights.
    JOHN -- nashville, TN   3/26/2007
    Very easy to install. Slightly loud clicking noise on learning modules when you turn them off, but they work great. Keyfob is a bit flaky.
    JEROME -- huntsville, AL   3/19/2007
    This works very well. Enough variety to get a serious working project going. The money saved over buying individual parts is substantial.
    VICKY -- anchorage, AK   3/15/2007
    Very nice so far ... not totally set up.
    LEONARD -- las cruces, NM   2/21/2007
    System does not work with many inductive loads such as florescence lights or garage door opener. Otherwise the uses of this system would be greatly increased for me.
    FRANK -- orleans, MA   2/15/2007
    Very good product for money. Very satisfied with quality and value.
    NEIL -- san diego, CA   2/14/2007
    Signals don't seem to work too well over the power lines. I had a few devices on the same circuit and they would not work reliably with any of the remotes.
    GEORGE -- macedon, NY   2/8/2007
    Took a short time to familiarize myself with the controls but that being done it totally fufilled my expectations - works great and am finding out new uses for it every day. Customer service was great also - very satisified!!
    JOE -- tucson, AZ   2/3/2007
    Very cool and user friendly. Even my wife figured it out and absolutely loved the key fob--showed it off to her lady friends like it was a new ring or something. I haven't scored a bulls eye like that in awhile. You should start making the key fobs in different colors...Joe
    TRAVIS -- catonsville, MD   2/1/2007
    Arrived much faster than I thought! Website easy to use and order from.
    TOM -- roanoke, VA   2/1/2007
    Used to replace another mgf's and I am glad I chose the B&D products.
    GARY -- des moines, IA   1/12/2007
    It's a very good quality product. It is quite a bit better than other similar products I purchased from X10.com.
    DAVID -- richfield, OH   1/11/2007
    This Black & Decker Freewire System is TERRIFIC. This is a nice, compact,complete and user freindly system, straight out of the box. Its very easy to set-up & easy to use. Excellent system for a beginner, because everything is included in the box. (All components) I'm very familiar with the X10 products and have been using them in my business, for years. Once you get hook and start using these devices, you'll ask yourself, why haven't I had them sooner. Their part of my everday life. I have a complete system controlling my work shop lights, I have a complete system controlling my interior house lights and I have a complete system, controlling all my exterior landscape lighting. We are deck and patio builders. All my customers have the X10 systems, thats what we install. Have a terrific day!!!
    RUSSELL L. -- erie, PA   1/11/2007
    We are very pleased with our B&D freewire system especially the ability to control all those hard to reach holiday ligts and outdoor holiday lights. This system will be definatley added on to in the future so we can make our home safer and more conveinient to save on energy.
    ANDREW -- wappingers falls, NY   1/10/2007
    This set made it easy to turn on and off our outdoor holiday lights. Set up was fairly simple and the multi channel remote made it convenient to control the lights from indoors.
    JANICE -- w. bridgewater, MA   12/29/2006
    Works exactly like I expected it to.
    RAYMOND -- bluefield, VA   12/27/2006
    Ordered 3 sets and they were the most talked about items at Christmas
    LEE -- haslett, MI   12/27/2006
    VERY satisfied with this product! The price was a great deal also. I am looking forward to expanding my system now that I have begun to use this! Set up was very easy as well. A great buy all around.
