THis is the long range version and my DC is less than 10 feet away. The only issue I have is that you have to hold the off or on button for at least a second before the dust collector will turn on or off. This is a good prodcut for the price. The button make a click when you press it but this does not mean the DC will turn off or on. But for the sales price it was a steal. So I have made it my practice to press it until I hear the DC turn on or off.
I really like this product. It works for me. In my shop, it works great, saves me lots of steps and frustration especially when I am focused on doing the next task.
In have owned this remote control for 5 years and it has performed flawless. I have a 24' woodshop and this saves alot of time and makes using the dust collector a real convienince.I did have to replace a remote, but I was so impressed with past performance that I bought 2 extra to have around, because they are like tape measures and pencils, never close when you need them.Great product and I recommend this to anyone that wants a great tool to make woodworking a little easier on the feet.
I didn't want to walk over to the DC right in the middle of a cut. I just purchased this switch for my 2 HP DC. The product is great. Now when I have "a senior moment" and forget, the remote is sitting right on the table saw and the problem is solved quickly. I was using my DC half the time because I would forget to turn it on before I started using my table saw.
So I plunked down the few extra bucks for this item. That simple. Highly recommended. This product struck me as a little pricey (I'm pretty frugal), but I really wanted something so I could turn my dust collector on and off remotely. All products should work this well.
What good is a DC if you don't use it (out of laziness). I never looked back. Plug it in, slip the battery into the remote control and you're done. It works like a charm.
