I have been using the RedEye since they first released it and it has come a LOONG way since then. The beauty of this (and all iPod) remotes is that new features and capabilities are always being added to the free App so the remote control system is always evolving and there's no reason to buy a...

Looks GREAT!

I use Z-wave switches and I prefer the return the neutral position switches because there is less confusion in scene control and 3-way switch applications. I also prefer the switches that have separate control for dim levels as opposed to the press and hold options. The Leviton Vizia switches...

Nevo recommends WD, HAI and RCS and the price is right on the WD model but I was really hoping for an attractive flush mount design because of where the thermostat is located in my home... Hmm... for less than $100 I think I'll give the WD a shot and I can always upgrade to a flush-mount if/when...

Sorry to resurrect an thread but I've been using the new NevoStudio Pro software with Zwave support with the Nevo Q50 remote control and have successfully programmed all my Vizia switches with ease. Now I'd like to add a Z-wave thermostat to the mix since nevo has that support as well. Is RCS...

Dan- You may find that going to RF communication in your case is going to be more reliable. You can have the Ocelot IR signals go directly to an RF transmitter and then have RF receivers at both the rack location and the projector location. Do a google search for the Terk Leapfrog LF-IRX with an...

Right now the Harmony 890 and 1000 have limited Z-Wave capabilities. They will control the on/off of your lights but there have been a ton of problems reported regarding bright/dim and scene control. Harmony and Monster (who they developed the ZWave with) have been promising upgrades for a few...

Thanks for the kudos on the review. You need to teach the Mrs. to stay away from all buttons except those on the remote itself ;-) Seriously though... if your TV has discrete power on/off capability you should be able to configure your activities to include the propoer discrete command every...

Are we allowed one entry for each of the 6 US resident gift baskets or are we supposed to selct the basket we want most and enter once? Please clarify... and thanks for the chance to win

The SA8300HD is actually easier to control then the Media Center PC is going to be. I have the same cable box and have used it in the set-up for all of the reviews posted on my site (sorry for the plug... I just want to re-assure you that controlling the SA8300 is not too hard). The best remote...

I don't know if you guys have been following the teaser's that Philips has been sending on their new Professional level remote control but they just released a new artist rendering today that shows a lot more of the unit and it looks like they're using the same design as the RC9800i that I saw a...

I just switched the feed on my site to feedburner as well so let me say you've made the right move. I've put off the change for about 6 months but when I finally decided to make the switch I have already received several emails from people saying the articles look nicer and read better. As a...
