Essential Info

Do you have lamps and appliances you want to automate that are plugged into exposed outlets? If so, OutletLinc is a perfect fit; it gives you fast, reliable On/Off INSTEON control with the sleek look of a modern, decora-style outlet.

Also available in a dimmable version: OutletLinc Dimmer.

Scene Lighting
Scenes allow you to control multiple lights, rooms or even the whole home with a single command. Because OutletLinc can be a member of more than 400 scenes (i.e. "Movie Time," "Party," "Romance," etc.), you'll be able to launch various lighting scenarios with a single button press on an INSTEON Controller. These are elegant features usually found only in systems costing tens of thousands of dollars and requiring extensive rewiring of your home. All member lights and appliances can turn on or off instantly, all controlled with one command from one button. If you want to control multiple scenes from one controller, try the INSTEON KeypadLinc Dimmer.

Software configurable
Using INSTEON software such as HouseLinc, you can control, program and manage settings for OutletLinc Dimmer and any other INSTEON devices in your network. You can even schedule timed events, receive email alerts when devices are activated and more. Learn more about HouseLinc.

Note: If you are using LED lights that are very low wattage, you may notice that the LEDs do not turn out completely when plugged into this device. In this case, you’ll need to add to the load with more LEDs or higher wattage bulbs - generally higher than a 5 watt load.

Available in white, light almond, almond, black, brown, gray and ivory.

    Convenient
    For added convenience, OutletLinc's bottom outlet is always on. So, whether you need an outlet in the hallway for the vacuum, or an outlet behind the living room couch for an INSTEON tabletop controller, you'll never have to worry about the outlet being switched off. Also, if you ever need to switch the top outlet on manually, you can either use OutletLinc's built-in ON/OFF button (located between its two outlets) or turn your lamp or appliance on and off with its own ON/OFF switch (with load sensing enabled).

    X10 Compatible
    INSTEON OutletLinc is fully INSTEON compatible and X10 ready. Homeowners with existing X10 networks can easily migrate to an INSTEON network without having to discard all their existing X10 devices. X10 ready means that the module can respond to X10 commands from an X10 controller. Please note that INSTEON devices repeat INSTEON signals but not X10.

    Non-Volatile Memory
    All ApplianceLinc settings are stored in non-volatile memory and are not lost during power failures. Additionally, in the event of a power loss, the OutletLinc will return the appliance to its last on/off state when power is restored.

    Certifications and Warranty
    All OutletLinc products are safety approved. The factory for SmartLabs Design Products is ISO9001 certified. Because of this passion for quality, Smarthome stands behind the entire SwitchLinc line of products with a full 2-year warranty.

    RICHARD -- pahoa, HI   5/1/2011
    Works great. When people buy these items, they should be reminded to make a record of the MAC address for each unit as they install them.
    CAMERON -- thornton, CO   3/28/2011
    Super quiet, easy to install, works just as it should, and it looks good too. I plan on converting some of my older X10 wired-in plugs and plug-in modules to these.
    ROBERT -- carlisle, OH   3/4/2011
    Good product
    BRENT -- windsor, CO   2/5/2011
    Works great! Controlled by the switch link dimmer, works as advertised.
    JOSEPH -- rockville centre, NY   1/28/2011
    These outlets are great. Very quite and extremely slick looking. They have a button to activate the controlled outlet and an inconspicuous led to indicate power. Highly recommend these.
    FRANKLIN D -- alpharetta, GA   1/13/2011
    Installed an Insteon system to control all outdoor, landscape and holiday lights from one Keypadlinc in December 2010. Everything works great so far. Slick outlet works great for controlling the Christmas lights on the porch without stepping out in the cold to turn on and off. No problems with the equipment seems stable and reliable. At $45 a pop an Insteon system isn't cheap but if it lasts it is a good investment. Set up is very flexible with lots of options.
    DEREK -- los angeles, CA   1/12/2011
    Pros: Works as advertised, only the top outlet is switched which increases flexibility. Cons: Slight delay and occasional misfires when flipping the paired switch.
    DOOGLEDB -- frisco, TX   1/10/2011
    Works great, just like all the other Insteon devices I am using.
    ALAN -- syosset, NY   1/10/2011
    Worked as expected.
    SCOTT -- dover, NJ   1/6/2011
    What I expected.
    ED -- west hartford, CT   1/3/2011
    I had to return 1 of 2 outlets, (I had to keep one because in trying to fit these units in to electric outlet boxes in an older house built in the 1920-30s I had to cut the wire lead in an attempt to fit. These units slightly to wide and certainly too deep to fit. I have since order the Insteon lamp module to plug into the old wall outlets of my house, Not architecturally pleasing; but, I am afraid that X10. The star rating id NA. is headed toward complete obsolescence.
    JAMES -- cortland, NY   12/25/2010
    I just replaced my entire X10 system with Insteon and Icon products plus an ISY99i/IR Pro and couldn't be more pleased. These products work together to provide a needed update and far more capabilities. I would highly recommend the Insteon/Icon line, especially when coupled to an ISY99 controller.
    DUSTIN -- essex junction, VT   12/18/2010
    With Misterhouse on headless Ubuntu server. Just works great and setup was a breeze. Only downside is I wish that the OutletLinc would notify the PLM when its local control was actuated.
    PATRICK -- valparaiso, IN   12/9/2010
    No problems yet. Easy to link into your system. Great for the holidays and controlling the lights.
    RANDALL -- la mesa, CA   12/9/2010
    My first use of these and they work perfectly...
    WILLIAM -- stockton, CA   11/22/2010
    Easy to install and link, part of my low voltage scene
    KENNETH -- boynton beach, FL   10/20/2010
    Easy to hookup and install. Note that this just turns lights on and off, and does not dim.
    EDWARD -- los altos hills, CA   10/14/2010
    Grounding wire is a poor design - a bare wire crimped to the mounting tab. It is in the way of installation and it can short against screw terminals of adjacent devices. Would prefer an insulated green wire coming out the back of the device, similar to the other wires.
    JOHN -- n las vegas, NV   9/16/2010
    Installs easily, works as expected. The size is similar to a GFI receptacle, so as long as you are using standard 3 1/2 inch device boxes you should have enough space.
    DONALD -- sylvania, OH   9/9/2010
    Excellent quality works very fast with the Smartlinc controller
