Remotes work well batteries are dead

The remotes work great to control our genie boxes and compared to what DirecTV charged the cost point is excellent. Fast shipping from this seller. Beware of the batteries that came with them - ours were dead so I think they've been on the shelf for a while. Once we figured that out, the remotes worked flawlessly. Not this vendor's fault, but the volume and channel buttons on these remotes are very poorly designed and you have to change remotes about every 18 months. (And that's if it's only…

DirecTV Remote on AV Accessories

They're easy to set up and use, and the RF capability means I don't need line of sight. TV input isn't a simple push of a button like an older version of the remote, and they're not easy to maintain. With two small children, something is often spilled. I like to take the remote apart to clean it like I do with a keyboard and mouse, but over the years manufacturers have made it almost impossible to take apart remotes. No matter how careful I am or how much time I invest, eventually something…

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Minor issues

Excellent remote controls, earned immediately!

I highly recommend these remote controls! I bought them because I had problems with DirecTV remotes. They were working fine and suddenly stopped responding. I removed the back cover, removed the batteries, put the batteries back in, rotated the batteries and waited for the system to respond. Received my new remotes today, opened the package and opened one of the new remotes. I put in the supplied batteries and pressed the volume button and the remote worked right away. I then went into…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Big and chunky

GG is to blame for everything

I have a dog who loves TV remotes. So I ordered these 4 packs. Easy to set up, works just like the ones included in the kit. Now 4 days after I started using one of them. My mailbox shows error code 276. My wife called to find out what the problem was. When troubleshooting, she mentioned that we ordered the remotes through Amazon. BLAM, there is retribution for our joy in television. They admit in the same breath that they have a nationwide power outage problem, but no, my power outage is…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Has been damaged

Original Direct TV remotes worked no matter which way you pointed them. These remotes are buggy and nearly didn't work when pointed directly at the HDTV box and repeatedly pressing the right button. They were made in the Philippines from cheap plastic, the original remotes were made in China and worked perfectly. Returned a batch of 4 of these because they were faulty and hardly changed the channel, barely anywhere near the satellite TV receiver. The infrared (IR) portion of the remote isn't as

  • Great Price

Feel free to buy these remote controls!

Ordered these after our pup destroyed 2 of the original 3 remotes. I tried replacing them with Directv and couldn't even get them at that price let alone for the timeframe we got them from Revain. I went with a 4 pack just in case we lose another 1 or 2 of these due to puppies or other reasons! They arrived in well protected packaging; all four were sealed separately and then resealed in another pouch wrapped in a liner. The remote controls worked great! Batteries, labels and instructions were…

Pros
  • Heavy duty finish
Cons
  • Some small things
