I went to my local Lowes and didn't find one.   Does anyone have a model number?  Was it really at Lowes, or maybe some other store?

Greg,
suggest getting the product manufacturer and model no. of the device in
question and submit this to IC. Request a response.
We have them here on our street but fortunately a ways down the road
from us (so far). Let us know what response you receive from IC.
