IR Extender thingys....

[ybrew]

I've got a USBUIRT.

Works great 99.9% of the time. The ONLY problem I have is if someone moves either the USBUIRT or the set-top box. If line of sight is broken, it no worky.

The USBUIRT supports IR Extender things (those little IR emmitters you can put directly on the device). If I can buy one of those and build a fort for the STB, everything will be cool.

But I can't find where to buy these! Radio Shack is simply a shell of it's former self. Nothing useful there. Where should I buy these and how much should I expect to pay?

Help!

I got mine from SmartHome. Sorry don't have a link for you though.

I think I looked there briefly, but pretty sure I looked at the wrong items (prices were in the $30-$45 range).

I'm thinking these are $3-$5 items.

I'll look again.

They're ir emmitters, not IR extenders.

Just need to figure out which is the best price-wise to order.
