Hi all,

I'm soon going to have a number of 16 channel wireless remote control systems up for grabs at £100 each. I know a number of you make them yourself, but if you are interested then send me a message :-)

They look quite good, who's the manufacturer?

On the 4th, I was given a tour around a pretty huge display site beforehand (28 minute display :P), and the guy who was showing me around mentioned some 12cue wireless systems coming out of China at the moment for £30/£40. Unsure as to how reliable/safe they would be in regards to signal interference... I guess they would have to be pretty safe in order to be sold.

These ones are from China too. Yes, the 12cue boxes are around £30/40 cost price, but there is usually a minimum order so its not that easy to just buy one.

I have heard of alot of similar units being used, without any problems. They operate on the 315Mhz band, which is a 'general use' band. But these units use encryption between the transmitter and the receiver, which would reduce any problems with signal interference as far as I know.

If someone was to bulk order some of these units through me, I may be able to come to an arrangement on the price for them :)

Does the LCD panel on the remote show continuity info? That would be a REALLY useful feature!

I dont think so, here's the instructions on the unit.

For everyones info, I am also looking into getting some wired units too. I shall post up the details when I have them from the manufacturer.
