Absolutely, I use similar and have the tree lights plugged in to one, the window lights into another and the external ones plugged into third. No more groping under the tree to turn the lights off if like us you put the tree in front of the socket and it's nice and easy to turn all lights off at bedtime and selected ones on when required. Definitely worth buying just for not knocking the needles off the tree

Is it too hard to get up and turn the switch off?

Do these remotes have to be in "line of sight" to work. Or could I put them behind a unit that I can't reach the plug that easily?

They'll be radio controlled, probably in same bands as car remote locking. My Lidl set used to be toggled by a neighbours visitors car! Took me a while to realise what was doing it lol.

I could live with them only being 10 amps, but it's a Shame these things use a23 battery's, and don't have power buttons on the plugs.
These things are great, if you use them to kill plugs every day, they will pay for themselves in a matter of a few months!
Consider that a single tablet charger left on permanently over the course of a year will cost £12.00 to run in standby, just that one item will pay off this set of plugs!
