BlastIR Wireless Pro - Receiver Only

I've now bought 4 sets of the Sewell Wireless Pro access Emitter / Receiver pairs plus a few extra Receivers (some direct from Sewell and some through Amazon). They're easy to install and working very well for me. I've attached the wired IR extension for each Receiver to the underside, front lip of each TV; mounting the receiver puck on the back of the TV or in an in-wall device box behind the TV. I attached the receiver pucks to their locations with the two-sided adhesive disc that comes with the unit and stuck the small rectangular wired IR extension heads with small cut rectangles of 3M's "Extreme" dual-sided mounting tape. Placing the IR extension heads in that fashion allow you to have users just point their remotes at the center of the TV which is the most natural behavior. I've used the extra receivers In places where more than one TV is connected to the same video source. All you have to do is set all associated Receivers to the same selectable code position as you set on the Transmitter (re-emitter) at the video source. I have had a minor issue controlling a garage TV where the Receiver is many feet - and multiple rooms and two exterior walls - away from the corresponding Transmitter's location. I resolved that issue by experimenting with moving Receiver and Transmitter mount locations to be less "enclosed" / blocked off by associated physical hardware and other bundled cables at their respective locations. Highly recommended. They're way easier than trying to use a hard-wired alternative.

So far, very frustrating. Zero instructions included and no videos on youtube either. The notes on the Amazon product page say you have contact Sewell to find out where the Pair button is. Emailed Sewell which says 3-5 days for reply. This should be EASY. Ugh! On the bright side, it's much smaller than I thought

I tried other wireless remote control expanders... that didn't work. This product worked RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX! Many digital products are a hassle to hook up, and the directions read like they were written overseas (and usually they are) ... but instructions were clear, and easy to follow. This product hooked up immediately, and just worked! They are small, and unnoticeable, so you can easily put them where you can point your remote at them and make them work. I've got one over 100 feet from the sending unit...works great. Buy it!

Very deceiving product information. You need the set with the receiver and emitter. This is useless without the other. The product description gives the impression that this is all you need in order for it to work out the box which is false. Also no instructions were included so it took me 30 mins of research online to determine why the issue was.

Range was great. Works very well. Easy to set up no problem with our remote controls.

These devices work perfectly with no fuss . Extend your remote from your rack or other to any room in the home

My old school radio shack setup finally died after 14 years. When I received these I was like “that’s it??” They were like the size of a coin - but I was pleasantly surprised. These little guys are amazing. Way better signal accuracy and the range is way better than the old triangles I had. I bought an extra receiver because I have a 2 TVs I control from one box.

I gave this a 4 because it broke within 2 weeks but there is a simple fix and the unit works so much better than what I had. Bought and installed BlastIR Wireless Pro to change channels on 2 TV's, in different rooms now even ordered another receiver for a third TV in another room After around two weeks one RECEIVER unit would not work. I unplugged and re-plugged it back in and still did not work. I used the same hand held channel changer on the other unit in a different room and it worked perfect, so it was not the hand held channel changer or its batteries, but had to be the one BlastIR unit RECEIVER. HERE IS HOW I FIXED IT 1) Unplugged it 2) Turned it upside down 3) Noticed a small screw (this is the frequency screw) 4) Turned that screw 1/2 turn then back to the position it was originally in 5) I did this 3 times 6) Made sure the screw was in the original position 7) plugged the BlastIR RECEIVER back in 8) ALL WORKED PERFECT. Not sure if this will fix your problem, but it worked for me and is a very simple fix. You will need a small screw driver or find something that is small and flat enough to fit that small recessed screw.. Jerry
