Hi Vijay,

advise that

All of the kits include both a Lamp module and an appliance module, and
with
the exception of the remote control kit, they are all the same across the
different kits.

The "appliance" module in the remote control kit is the TM12
Transceiver
module (which is the radio receiver for the remote control), but it is
still
a fully functional appliance module.
