Can a remote control with a longer cable be purchased as an accessory or has anyone made any type splice to make the remote cable longer.

You have to wonder sometimes if any of the people who design products ever use them. One of the popular uses of this hoist is to move items to an attic from garage.A six foot cable is a joke. My guess is that only about one third of buyers could get by with a remote that's within six feet of where the hoist is mounted.

I own two of these units. Adding more cable to one of them is on our to-do list. I could not find a remote kit but we took the cabled remote apart and it was just a four conductor cable. we were just going to replace the whole cable with a 30 foot one. It does not look like the unit has much amp draw so we calculated that a 30 foot cable should be OK. That would be 60 feet for the elect run. The cable is available on amazon in 50 foot rolls or you can find it locally. The side of the current remote cable has the size and specs on it. if you reeplace the complet cable you will need some crimps to place new connectors on the ends and also have new connectors. We did not see a problem with just cutting the cable and splicing a new one in. We also thought that we could cut the cables and put 4 prong plugs on each end and build an extension cable. That started to get more expensive so i think we are just going to replace the entire cable, but cutting and splicing seemed OK. i did look for a wireless remote kit or a wireless hoist but did not find one that had an acceptable price.

Length may be short, but easy to lengthen...either cut and splice or buy the spade connectors to make an extension cable. yes you can cut out the switch, its garbage anyway, and add your own. That's what I did on all of mine.

The lights only come with a linking cable that is around 3 foot long, so I don't think u can exceed that, with out customizing the cable yourself. I have never inquired to see if there is a longer cable available. Don't quote me on that exact length please.

Yes. I have done it two ways. In one case I purchased a 50 or 60 foot extention cord from Defender. However, I also found that I had some very short runs and some very long runs. I shortened the cord for the short run by removing a section of the cord and splicing the remaining cord together. I then used the extra cord from the one I shortened and spliced it into the cord I needed to be longer. The wires in the cords are very fine so the splicing is a delicated job but it is very do-able.

Yes, just be sure to purchase the connector cable long enough to reach from the receiver to the spot you want to mount the control

yes you can. it has a remote to controll the disired length you want to view. overall for the money and functionality i recommend this sreen.

the cord is only 6 feet long, but you could increase it's length by cutting and splicing in a longer cord with the same amount of wires if you know a bit about splicing and soldering electrical wiring.

I just purchased a 5 pin MIDI cable from eBay to extend my remote, and it works perfectly.

yes you can use a different cable longer or shorter etc. I have had no problem switching it up.

You can buy the remote (including the receiver module) from Amazon. You'll might have to drop the fan assembly to install the new module into the fan housing./ I don't believe the modules are interchangeable with any/all remote controls.

I recommend contacting Wheely Bird, but I'm sure some kind of wire extension can be made. However for a few more dollars, they have q wireless remote.

I know the cable is long but its only so you can find a good place to mount the receiver. You work it from the remote. Trust me you will love it....I do!!!

Unfortunately we do not carry a replacement remote. You may able to find a replacement unit at a local hobby store, or perhaps from a specialized hobby seller here on Amazon. :)

you can buy a longer cable from other seller, because we only have 15m cable. The cable will be very cheap.

All the Trivision cameras I received have a 9 foot (I suppose technically 3 meter) power cords. It shouldn't be difficult to splice on an extension if you needed longer.

Yes the cable is fairly long and you could always extend it if you needed but would be hard to find the same clear coding that the existing wire is in
