Again great work.

Don't forget that if a newbie buys your Motion Sensor Lighting Package they'll need something to use to program the socket rocket. You don't want someone complaining because they couldn't program it. You might offer a package with some kind of controller box with it. Well I suppose if everything defaults to A1 it wouldn't be too bad by itself.

Thanks guys! I appreciate your input.

@SteveR
Very valuable info, thanks! We should probably make the solution to this issue more obvious. I will incorporate it into my tips.

The solution is quite simple:

1. Program motion sensor to desired code first
2. Program transceiver to same code
3. Screw in Socket Rocket
4. Push the House/On button on the motion sensor 3 times.

This will set the "listening" socket rocket to the desired code. The same procedure applies if you want to change the code, simply unscrew the socket rocket and repeat steps 1-4.

Thanks again, and please keep checking and giving me input on how to improve the site. We just started it, so there is a lot more to come.
