remote control for garden feature

[Nick...]

customer wants to turn on their garden fountain from inside the house. the fountain will take its feed from the shed and the shed will take its feed from the external meter cupboard, so a switch in the house is out of the question.

has anyone fitted something similar, i know you can get remote controlled external sockets and if i have to ill use one but ideally id like to have the fountain hardwired to a sensor of some kind

cheers

Timer and photocell I usually use for fountains and lights

Control it all from the shed

I've used the click info's fobs, switches, and receivers a few times, they seems solid, have a suspicion they may be discontinued though

why no good. had 1 at home, outside in a box feeding a lamppost and 2 water features. for 7 years, no problems.

I was joking about the voltage

Apologies for the obscurity

Although I would use a separate Quinetic receiver in the shed and a key fob or switch in the house.

Sorry SparkySy fooled by the daft description, but we are talking about the same thing, must check links before jumping in to post.

No problem at all @Mike Johnson. Yes we were on the same thing! I do like the fobs got a few customers with drive and planter lights who love them!
