First one failed in a week.

Posted by: from NJ on 05/09/2012Bought this so I could could control a remote cable box. Setup is fast First problem - documentation says the transmitter will blink when it receives an IR signal. It does not. Contacted the manufacturer, they confirmed it does not. This makes it harder to know what the problem is when it's not working. First unit failed in one week. Best Buy exchanged it with no packaging and no receipt, because my purchase history is available in RewardZone. Thank you Best Buy. Second unit has been working for about 2 weeks now. Performance same as first.

Works just like promised, but somewhat slow.

Posted by: from Canton, GA on 05/02/2012The unit works as promised, and allows me to keep my cabinet doors shut where my cable box and DVD player are located (as I have flat panel TV mounted on wall above fireplace). The unit is very directional oriented and works best when you are directly in front of the receiver. It is somewhat tricky to use if you are sitting off to the side at an angle, which requires you to move the remote around to get the unit to operate. However, overall i would recommend this unit.

Not good if you have more than one TV

Posted by: from Memphis, TN on 04/11/2012Needed to have 2 cable boxes hidden in the house in different rooms and this product will not allow you to have 2 in the house since it uses radio frequency and when trying to change one it will change the other TV in a different room.

Fantastic

Posted by: from Wisconsin on 02/20/2012I purchased one set of these to hide my components in our movie room. I was able to modify the IR eyes by adding a 16' long piece of wire to the harness and this operates my completely hidden Epson projector flawlessly! Another bonus, I added a LCD TV above my fireplace in the adjoining room. I did not want to have any additional components and I lacked room to house them there. I purchased another one of these and set it up near the new TV with long cables to my components and both IR transmitters "speak" with the single IR repeater perfectly!

A bit quirky

Posted by: from East Coast on 09/21/2011Took a little experimentation to get it to work correctly but once I figured it out it has been working flawlessly for a few weeks. I actually bought it for a friend and I'm glad it works.
