Works perfectly as expected October 26, 2008 Bought this item to hook up to my Grizzly dust collector. Works great, no fuss installation. It has very good range. I would recommend.
Long Ranger: Hi Ho Silver....Away!! September 8, 2008 Ordered from Amazon after researching several woodworking forums. It works as described with my Delta 1-1/2 HP 220V unit located in a shed next to my shop created by extending the eaves. Installed the base unit on the shed wall above the 220V receptacle, plugged it in and plugged the DC into the base unit. Switched the DC on, then entered the shop and pressed the "On" button on the remote control which now lives in a tool pocket of my Carharts when I'm in the shop. The convenience will be especially valuable when it's rainy, but it's a big time and step saver every day.

Nothing good to say about this. I think is is a piece of junk. Only lasted about 30 days before it stopped working. Wouldn't recommend it.
Great Product August 11, 2008 The Long Ranger 220V remote dust collector unit works great, just as described. It has a much longer range than the previous unit I had. I am using it to control a 3hp Delta dust collector. The only thing I would like better is for the remote unit to be a bit smaller. I hang it on my apron while in the shop and it does get in the way, but that is a small price to pay for its great performance.
Long Ranger works well July 7, 2008 This is my second 220V Long Ranger switch. My first unit went belly up after about 3 years of light-to-moderate use. The remote was still good, though, and I had no trouble reformating it for use with the new unit, so now I have 2 remotes, which is quite convenient. Setting up the Long Ranger is easy, the range is good, the 9V battery in the remote lasts a very long time, and it works consistently without problem. My only concern is how long my new unit will last, given the history of the old unit.
