Outdoor remote control outlet

18 years ago

Does anyone have any recommendations for a reliable outdoor remote control outlet? I need one to turn on my water fountain and outdoor landscape lights. So far, I've tried 2 different ones:

The first was an SVAT WRC101 Wireless Outdoor Remote Control Power Outlet. It worked fine from a distance, and through all the plants. The only problem was that after the first rain, it no longer worked.

The second one was a Heath Zenith Outdoor Wireless Kit with Multi-Socket Outlet and Remote. The worked after a rainfall, but I had to stand within 5 feet, instead of the advertised 100'. And then it didn't work consistently.

So I'm looking for a reliable, reasonably priced outdoor outlet that will work at a distance of at least 30' feet and will stand up to outdoor weather. Since I'm in New Orleans, freezing temps are not a problem. Please help.
