When running wires inside walls, most states and municipalities in the U.S. specify that you must use a spe- cial type of wire. Usually, the requirement is that the wire has a specific “CL” fire rating, such as “CL-2” or “

For example, remotes that operate on two small AAA batteries and have only one IR emitter are generally not as strong as remotes that use the larger AA size batteries and have two emitters. Tests with various manufacturers’ remote controls have shown that the operating range can vary from a minimum of 20' to a maximum of about 30'. Infrared sign
