how far from the unit does the remote work?

Just got mine & used it twice last week. My 2nd setup was 127 YARDS per my range finder. No problems at all. Great little call.

I don't really know how far. The farthest I've used it was about 50 yards and the response was immediate..

I've been over 100 ft away and it works fine. The factory advertises 300 yards.

When mine worked, it was good for probably 200 ft. I think they claim 300? Don't leave in truck, or anywhere its hot, mine stopped working.

I have not really tried to see how far it would recieve but I have used it from 50 yards away.

From my recliner to the lamp it's about 12 feet. Worthy of mention is that there has to be a clear line of sight between the remote control and the power switch.

We did not have any problem w/ distance. We had one unit in our detached garage. Programing with DISH was more difficult.

I have no idea. I looked at the model#of my old remote and went from there. I know mine works great but has a shorter range. Sorry i couldn't help more.

I'm sorry I misunderstood. I am using my siren with a transmitter an door sensor. I have mounted my siren 35ft from transmitter. I 'm not using the remote.

We have it set up where the remote is approx 30 ft from the base and it works without any issues.

In my situation, both antennas are connected to the back of the box with coaxial cable. One of the antennas is 2 floors distant. The remote works in line of sight at fairly close range.

I have had the remote work at 15 feet. Never tried any further since that was the longest distance we have needed on most jobs. Hope that helps

First of all, the remote is an ifra-red device, so it's subject to all the problems inherent in that, i.e. it's line of sight, it's affected by other light sources (like a really bright day) etc. Given all that, I was able to get at least thirty feet away, inside, on a cloudy day. It could be farther, but I ran out of room to back up!!

I can only come up with 2 possibilities: 1) like me you received a bum unit, or 2) the distance between the remotes & main unit is too far. Mine won't transmit from the basement freezer to the upstairs.

Just tested it, and it works pretty far away. I placed the heater in the back of the kitchen and went all the way to the end of the living room, and it works. I'd say that was about 35+ ft..

It's not as far as it says. I've use it out about 25 yards or so. It must be off the ground for the remote to pick it up also. It works good for the price though.

The remote is about the size of a small envelope and the receiver unit is the size of a small cell phone. It fits perfectly in my small back bedroom

I agree, the reception from the remote is pretty bad. I don't have a distance problem, but I do seem to need to have the right angle. I would look into a universal remote if it bothers you that much. Logitech has some nice models. Good luck.

hi. i spoke to panasonic according to them the range is about 50 feet; but from my experience it depends a lot in the surroundings, for instance some remotes can cause interference and shorten the distance.

Not sure. But if you want a your remote to work farther away than when you park right outside the garage door mashing the button over and over.then go with another brand/ model
