Title: RC frequency remote vs IR frequency remote
Review: I went from a Ritetemp with an infrared remote(same as tv,dvd,etc remotes), pretty much a line of site remote. It worked kinda, if I got up and pointed it at the thermostat from a foot or two away, again almost a definite line of site remote, which totally defeated my purpose of not having to get up to change the thermostat. This Lux has a radio controlled remote. It ROCKS! It would probably work from out on my patio. Cons? If it had a 1/2 degree temp setting on the temp turn on/off, it couldn`t get much better than that. Another buyer on Amazon mentioned it eating batteries. Mine is too new to know, but that would be a fair trade off for the convienence of this remote, for me. I never ever use dollar store batteries. And rechargeable batteries are usually only about 1.3 volts I think, vs 1.5 volts from an alkaline battery. I highly recomend this unit. ps, I "think" you can use up to 3 remotes one thermostat?
