Lidl Remote Control - €8.99

There was a thread about remotes recently and a few people, myself included, mentioned the one in Lidl as a great buy.
It's back in on the 2nd Decemeber, cheaper than last time too!

i have one of these, and imo its a poor quality remote. It often "forgets" functions and it absolutely eats batteries.

Better off spending a little more and get something that actually works.

Possible a faulty remote?
the one I got last time has a couple of old rechargeable batteries in it and I haven't charge them since I got the remote about 7/8 months ago.
And I have it set up perfectly for controlling everything as easily as possible after using the "learn" function to set ALL the buttons.
Never had an issue with forgetting anything.

maybe you're using dodgy batteries or something and the lack of power is knocking stuff off.

They look good but in fairness there hopeless. the learn function is sh&*. it says that theres codes for hundreds of tvs etc but they don't even have codes for there own silvercrest products
best spend a few bob extra and get a decent one
