Re: Strange behaviour



After some hours of trying the RR501 in different outlets throughout the
house I have come up with the following conclusion - it's failing somehow.
Now it's working intermittently on the same outlet as the lamp module and
the outlet is a one circuit duplex outlet. Plugging  in another RR501
results in excellent operation. I see however to do what I want I think I
will need to invest in a WGL unit. Thank you for taking the time to respond
to my problem. I appreciate it...... Gene
