Product Reviews of The Clapper Sound Activated On/Off Switch, 1 Each
Product Review: A bit disappointed...
Summary: 2 Stars
In theory, this product is great. I used the clapper to activate some rope lighting in my kitchen, to keep me from plugging/unplugging the lights every time I wanted them on/off. Even on the "3-claps" setting, my lighting goes on/off every time I use my microwave or do anything in my kitchen, dining room, or living room. You should see the light show when microwave popcorn :OProduct Review: A life saver for disabled persons

My wife had a stroke, went through rehab clinic and home care therapy and is recovering, but she kept falling in the bedroom.
She could not turn on and off her bedside lamp.
I thought about the TV ads for the Clapper Sound activator and ordered one from Amazon.
Now my wife can turn off her lamp to sleep and turn on her lamp to see how to get out of bed and keep from falling.
Product Review: A strange problem ...

After reading the reviews here I decided to order a Clapper anyway, for a floor lamp with a hard-to-reach switch. Like others, we found that the lamp kept spontaneously turning on and off. So we lowered the sensitivity and the Clapper began working perfectly. For a while. When winter came I bought a small stack of firewood that I placed a few inches in front of the Clapper in our living room. The Clapper seems to be sensitive to having objects placed in front of it -- the firewood created something of an echo effect that the Clapper is very sensitive to, and we can't adjust the sensitivity of the thing to keep it from turning on and off by itself at the very softest noise. So alas, I had to unplug the Clapper. But it had worked perfectly well up until then.Product Review: About what I expected

I bought this for my mom to use after her surgery made her immobile so she could turn the light on and off from bed. I read the previous reviews and figured I didn't have a dog or anything else that was loud so maybe I would be ok.
Well that first night, we were watching a movie and the first time we laughed, the light turned off. Then we laughed cuz of that, and the light turned on. Needless to say, the rest of the night we were amused by the clapper. I also kept a mini-fridge in the room so while we were sleeping that night, every time the fridge cooler or whatever kept turning on, the light turned on....I did try experiment with the sensitivity switch, but basically, any sound that had two tones was enough to activate the clapper. It did serve its purpose and entertained us.
I live in an old house and we blew a fuse...it burned the clapper out so now it sits on my desk. During my mom's last visit, she tried to clap on the light and I told her it didn't work anymore. She was bummed.

I connected The Clapper to my bedroom "boombox," with wonderful results. I can clap my favorite music on or off without getting out of bed. It's very handy and, dare I say, luxurious. There's just one small problem. Apparently, The Clapper can't distinguish between real and recorded hand claps. When I play "Hey Mickey" by Toni Basil or "We Got the Beat" by The Go-Go's, the boombox shuts off. My prized Buddy Greco Live at The Sands CD, with frequent applause, is especially problematic. I've yet to make it through Buddy's "weather report" section ("Sunshine Day," "Windy," and "Rainy Day").
