Hot Spring IQ Remote problems

[Richs100]

Rich, thanks for the nice summary.  The 3 button remote for all the features of the spa sounds like a stupid idea.  I wonder if anyone makes a waterproof universal remote?  At a minimum I think you need dedicated buttoms for volume, track, scan, input.

I agree 100%

David:  That dolphin remote is way cool!  It says it also controls the hot tub functions (pumps, lights).  Do you use it in your tub?  Does it control all the functions?  What brand of tub do you have?
Thanks, Rich

What did I tell you about Hot Springs ...  

Actually maybe it's a buildup of gunk wherever the receiver port is.

Vinny:
There better not be a build up of gunk anywhere.  The tub is just over two weeks old!

Aren't you the one with white stuff on the tub?

If you're not - I appologize but if you are - if it's an IR remote then anything that doesn't let light in may affect it's functions. The white residue may be enough to stop it from going through. I know with new batteries I can bounce a remote off a wall and it will work - 2 years later, the batteries are too weak and I need a diect line to the IR port. Just a thought.

Great find!  I assume you are happy with it and it works as advertised?

White stuff on the tub???  Well, there was that one night, but......

Oh yeah, the white residue on the steps.  Still working on that one.  But if the signal can go through fiberglass and everwood (whatever that is), I hope the residue is not strong enough to stop the signal.  Maybe its Kryptonite residue?
