Intermatic is now shipping their HA05 screw-in lamp modules. I have attached a photo of mine. Here are some quick specs:
Official info:
http://www.homesettings.com/products.htm
Ratings:
300 Watts Tungsten (incandescent)
42 Watts Compact Fluorescent
120 VAC, 60 Hz
Temperature Range:
-35°C to 60°C (-31°F to 140°F)
For Indoor and Outdoor Use
[Dry, damp, and wet locations]
Color:
Off-white/almond-ish
Please note that this is _not_ a dimmable module; this is an on/off module. These would be great for (as the package says) coach lights, lamp posts, flood lights, etc. They have a local control button on them as well, of course.
[It isn't recommended for enclosed fixtures where the light bulb is mounted below the module; for enclosed fixtures where the light bulb is mounted above the module, up to 60 Watts is the rating. For open air, up to 300 Watts is the rating.]
Also, make sure that you screw in your light bulb all the way; the HA05 has a nice weatherproof-type seal on it, and your light bulb needs to be snug (but not overtightened) for a good connection.
I'm thinking that these are going to be great as repeater nodes between the house and the garage as well--but you'd have to leave them on at the "switch" and turn them on/off via Z-Wave. Or just replace the switch with a Z-Wave transmitter switch if that's allowed.
