Thanks for saving me a purchase. Bought so many different varieties of these on Ebay in the last 2 years hoping I could make a copy of my garage remote. None have worked so far and refuse to pay the outrageous prices I've been quoted.
If anybody has any recommendations, please let me know. Mines about 6 years old and according to the manual, operates on 433mhz.
Try browsing the Remotepro website. They've posted a few deals on Ozbargain in the past.
Thanks. Prices seem reasonable.
What do you consider to be an outrageous price? If you have access to the garage door to program it, then you can buy a new remote and program it to the door. We did it with a remote at our last rental, the remote cost about $50 from Bunnings IIRC, but surely you could get a cheaper one online.
Was close to or just over $100 from memory.
Asked locksmith how much it wouod be to copy my 08 subaru key while getting ny roofrack keys duplicated. He told me upwards of $500 for the central locking remote and another (less significant) silly amount for the key itself. Pretty confident he wasnt trying to rip me off as he told me it probably isn't worth getting it copied unless i had the money.
@macrocephalic: i would consider 30 bucks borderlining on outrageous. I am pretty sure I got 2 remotes for 15 bucks on ebay when I needed them. The key is to know what type of remote, e.g. PTX4. There could be dozens on 433mhz but that doesn't mean they are compatible.
My experience with remotepro was good, when I haven't been able to get the right remote part from ebay they had a clear website and good support, and cheap enough not to care about the price difference.
Yes, I have bought from Remotepro in the past, because their website made it clear which type I needed. What I bought was ten times cheaper than the original, and a fraction of the size.
My garage door opener in the house we moved into 2 years ago had remotes that look just like this but with red buttons. I saw a deal a while back at Kogan with the same looking remote but silver (exactly the same as this one) for $15 and i took a risk and tried it and it worked perfectly. So I suspect that if your remote looks exactly like this one it is likely to work.
I'm not sure whether mine uses a rolling code as was mentioned below, but I think it's quite likely that it does, since the garage roller door appears to have been installed in 2009. I think the rolling codes are an issue for the remotes that claim to be able to copy another remote just by basically listening while you press the button on the other remote. But with the one i bought from kogan (and I think this one as well) it's not actually done that way. I had to hold down a pairing button on the roller door and press a button on the remote and then it effectively paired and was able to work on that button from then onwards.
I'm going to buy one of these just as a cheap spare. If yours looks exactly the same as this, I'd suggest doing the same. It probably works with other remotes that look different as well, but you'd have to look up the specs and stuff which I was too lazy to do tbh haha
This one works by copying the code from another remote. That is not compatible with a rolling code, which uses an agreed upon logic for subsequent codes. Rolling code must be paired with the receiver.
Check eBay - plenty of remotes with the same case which use different internals.
@Make it so: Looks like you're right. I hadn't read that far down to see the instructions for copying another remote.
These should work with rolling codes, just not challenge/response encryption from what I can tell.
This remote control HCS300, HCS301 rolling code chip, single chip encryption chip can not copy.
Would like confirmation from rep perhaps? :)
Are you sure on that? I was under the impression rolling or hopping codes could very easily be copied. I do it all the time with the one in our unit complex garage gate here. It seems to indicate on the tsmart page that it will do rolling or hopping codes, just not two way encrypted codes.
Two-way encrypted is challenge/response, not rolling.
I'm confused now.
Rolling/hopping codes use a pre-thought out process, no challenge/response. Typically you can clone and away you go, just need to get multiple codes out of the remote.
Will it duplicate Honda Jazz 2009 remote?
will it work with an aldi fan….same frequency….433MHz
Great idea, switch on fan using auto remote control…
This seems dodgy? Can you copy peoples car keys?
People considering this should be mindful that differences in protocols may cause this to not work. For example, most non-ancient garage doors use "hopping codes", to avoid signal copying. This remote would only work with very old stuff.
