Advice on what to use to control lights in my Barn

I have a barn that gets power from my house circuit box and is about 150 feet away from the house. I would like to turn on/off a two lights.
I am new to all this. I was thinking about trying SmartHome PowerLinc 2414U USB INSTEON controller and using INSTEON light switches.
But I am having trouble finding if the distance will cause issues.
 
I have a shed that has a Insteon Switchlink in it to control the motion light outside on the building. It is about 100' away and it works well. I use Keypadlinc's to control them. The wiring to the shed is 10AWG in conduit. YMMV.
Smarthome has a 30 day return policy, I believe. Check it out to be sure. If they don't work, send them back.
 
My home connects to a pad transformer (~150 ft run). My barn connects to same transformer (~30 ft run). Insteon has no problem between the two.

I also have a boat house (~100 ft) from home also with no Insteon issues.
