Input:
Useless remote. Unfortunately the return period has expired as I would send this worthless piece back. I've only had a couple of opportunities to test it until now. The remote barely works when it is next to the transmitter, let alone 20' away from the outdoor kitchen to the indoor kitchen where the rest of the meal is being prepared, even with the remote in a window with a clear view to the transmitter about 20' away. If I could I would give it ZERO stars.  My bad for not reading the other reviews before purchase
