Keyfob Range? 2 SOLUTIONS

[DMike]

You can extend even further with a container of water.
WARNING - you will look even sillier

Good explanation here:

So it is now a scientifically proven fact that one must buy a sixpack of beer from grocery, each time, to find the car. The theory is too complex to explain but has to do with oscillating water molecules.

That is truly fascinating. I'm going to buy a "water hat". What is that, you say? I have no idea. haha

I could be on the wrong floor of a parking structure and make my horn go off.

Don't know the rules in the US but there are definitely many, many laws against doing that in the UK. :lol: :lol:

UPDATE:

Today, by chance, I was holding my keyfob in both hands. One hand was on the plastic part with a finger pushing the button. The other hand was holding the metal part of the key. Just for yucks, I was curious if this would also increase the range. Well... whaddya know? YES, it does increase the range substantially!

Yes, I have been putting the key to my forehead when needed and, yes, I look silly. But, now that this 2nd technique appears to work, I'll go back to looking my normal silly rather than insane silly. haha

Give it a try and let me know if that works for you, too.
