Have you lost your remote control lately?

Hello, thanks for your comments.

I would probably be like you and hang onto my old TV until I was going to buy a new one, but go batty every now and then until I did.

I don't believe it would cost much to put into a television. They just don't have any foresight.
But what's worse is, cordless phones have been doing this for a while, and no-one has thought of putting the same thing into the TV.
I had a car key finder that used to beep when I whistled, but I got rid of it because it would go off all the time when women or children were nearby, with their high pitched voices.

Maybe is the weight of importance of the item. If you lose a key you cannot open car or start the car and if you lose a cordless phone you cannot answer the phone or make call. But if you lost a remote you can still watch tv with out having a remote. you can change the channel and turn up the volume with out it.

I hear what you are saying, but I think about, if they are putting them into other devices, why take it out or leave it out on purpose. I am just waiting to hear if there are in fact any TV's made with a beeping remote.

There must be some on the planet somewhere.
It's just too silly for there not to be.

You know the dream model TV with everything you would want in a TV.

One of those should have a beeping remote.

Well, if you really want this feature you can just make it yourself. Tie a remote beeper to your Tv remote control, You can try to use the "do your own kit" wireless door bell. I know it might be bulky if you tie it to the remote but this is the closes you can get.

I guess one hassle in this might be that you would need a cradle to keep recharging your remote, because the beeper would need a radio or infra red receiver in it and it would have to be active all the time. The cordless phone usually lives in a cradle.
Oh well.
I might tie some string to it and tie the other end to the leg of the coffee table.

Ha ha, ah kids will be kids. At least the days of having a jam sandwich posted into the video recorder are nearly past us.

What about one that will beep for 20 seconds if it can't see the TV?
