These work fine for reasonable distances. I wouldn't want to guarantee you could be in the garage and turn something on in a basement 300 feet away, think reasonable distance and these are cheap and work fine.

Good way to kill the lights on command... or if you want to surprise someone, good way to turn the lights back on!
