Just wanted to share the remote I've been using the last few years. I think remotes are now being used in with the booster pumps as well,..so this is for anyone using a remote for any application. These things are awesome,..the feedback function works very well and is really nice to know you've made contact. These work as far as you will ever need, obstacles are no issue at all. They are more expensive by far. But is well worth it, they seem pretty tough. I put the transmitter in a plastic pouch and attach it to my belt line. They sell waterproof transmitters, but doesn't say SH proof,..Ha,Ha,..
These come from China, and is the only one I could find in my search that had the feedback. I've e-mailed them a couple times and "Tom" replies quickly. Shipping is about $20-$25
Nice find Jeff that's exactly what I need. Your like Google for us power washers. Lol.

Ha, Ha,..not sure about that!! But,..I do try to add content to the board. I also typically don't just throw out untested products,...I don't like to give speculation,..I like in the field use before recommending.
Just a note,..the expedited shipping isn't that much more than regular shipping.
Regular is around 30 days and is around $20
Expedited is 3-9 days and is around $30

I dont see where you can use that for 120volts.
I found this in the details. I like the antenna.
This one has two relays. I would rather have one unless the second could be used in the event one goes bad.
Something I do with this remote or any remote for that matter is: When I get them, one of the first things I do is take the receiver and transmitter apart and,..using a small brush of sorts,.... I coat the circuit boards and everything else inside with dielectric grease. I do the battery contacts also. Makes a big difference in keeping corrosion down.
Although it states the feedback is a "Buzzing" mine beeps. And the antenna on the transmitter doesn't need extended. Definitely a plus if you want to put it inside a plastic pouch.

We're using the Control Wizard from PWS, and I have no idea how much it costs individually ( i bought it installed on a skid). I notice the remote on mine is exactly the same.

Ray,..these are very nice remote units in my experience. I take the covers off the receiver and transmitter and smear dielectric grease all over the circuit boards and battery contacts. Corrosion attacks these small components and one little rusted or corroded connection and the whole thing goes wonky.
These units can be had alot cheaper if you don't need the feedback function,..I prefer it though,..just a comfort thing is all.

Just a note: I was tearing my rig down as I do every Winter and replace and repair and paint,..etc, etc,...Upon taking my remote receiver apart to examine the inside circuit board for corrosion,..I broke it. I couldn't get the cover off and tried to drill the one screw out,..and of course the drill slipped and broke through the corner and into the circuit board,..Ha, Ha,..Funny/bad thing was,..it worked fine just minutes before,...Anyhow,....
I bought the new receiver,..(they sell just the receiver and you can pair existing remotes to it,.I have three) The instructions they sent are wrong,..I got it working as it should,..but these aren't as simple to wire as the cheaper remotes,..not difficult either though,..once you have the right directions. To keep it simple I will just say,...
Terminal C per the instructions should be A. Everything else was correct.
Just in case anyone decided to buy.

Can anyone post a short video on installment? It might help a lot of people.

Ok,.I've been searching around their site,.and they make a couple different models that are very close in specifics. The one I received is a more complicated receiver,.....but the "Easier" one is in the link I will provide in the message. It is a simple hookup,..in and out connections. Mine is basically the same unit but with different wiring specs. IGNORE the the link in my first post. I tried to remove it,.but the edit won't change anything.
Don't get me wrong the one I mentioned in the link works fine,..just more complicated than our needs call for.
