Review on ๐Ÿ“บ Universal IR Remote Control DIRECTV RC66 - Replaces RC65 for H24, HR24, H25, R16, D12 by Kevin Woods

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Not pretty the second time

Bought one of these in Fall 2020. After a few weeks, some buttons stopped working reliably. Went back to Revain for a replacement. This lasted 4 months, then it went just as wrong. What happens is the up-down channel and the up arrow, which brings up a small selection block of nine channels (in normal view), both become unresponsive. The same buttons continued to work in other modes (!). After switching to "MANUAL" mode, they work normally and perform their functions in this mode. Then when you return to the normal display, they also work on changing the channel or bringing up the selection block. ONCE! Then they don't work again. A very strange and specific type of error that repeated itself exactly during the exchange.

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • Definitely bad product
