Our take on the 38KHz Wireless IR Infrared Remote Control complete with Battery

A slim 21-key infrared remote that transmits on the 38KHz carrier, the frequency most consumer IR receivers expect. It is built for NEC-format gear: USB stereo docks, car MP3 players, foot baths, lighting, digital photo frames and microcontroller boards such as Raspberry Pi and Arduino. The thin PET-faced body and included 3V lithium cell make it a spare or project remote rather than a full-featured living-room controller. It has no learning function or display, so it suits tinkerers and simple appliances, not people replacing a TV remote.

Pros
  • 38KHz carrier matches common IR receivers
  • 21 keys cover basic navigation and numbers
  • Very thin and light at 86 x 40 x 6 mm
  • Battery included
  • Stated range of 8 to 10 m in open line of sight
  • Rated for about 20,000 presses
Cons
  • NEC format only, so it will not work with every device
  • No learning mode to copy another remote
  • No brand codes or pairing instructions for specific gear
  • Range drops with weak receivers or obstacles
  • Rated life of 20,000 presses is modest

About the 38KHz Wireless IR Infrared Remote Control complete with Battery

This is an ultra-thin 38KHz infrared wireless remote control that uses the NEC encoding format. It has 21 keys and comes with its battery.

It suits devices that take an infrared remote, such as USB port stereos, car MP3 players, foot baths, lighting, digital photo frames, microcontroller development boards and learning boards. It also works with Raspberry Pi and Arduino projects.

The remote's range is 8 to 10 m. Obstacles and the quality of the infrared receiver can shorten the range. The surface is made of 0.125 mm PET.

Questions and answers

Will it work with my Arduino or Raspberry Pi IR receiver?
Yes, if the receiver expects a 38KHz carrier. That is the common frequency for NEC-format receivers used in these projects. Check your receiver's datasheet before buying.
Does it work with any TV?
Not reliably. It sends fixed NEC codes on 38KHz, so it only controls devices that accept those codes. Many TVs use different protocols or brand-specific codes.
What is the range?
The maker states 8 to 10 m, depending on receiver quality and obstacles. Expect less through obstructions or with a weak receiver.
Is a battery included?
Yes, a 3V lithium manganese cell is included.
Can I program it to copy my old remote?
No. It has no learning function. It sends its own fixed 21-key NEC code set.
How big is it?
It measures 86 x 40 x 6 mm, so it is thin and pocketable.
Where is the 38KHz Wireless IR Infrared Remote Control complete with Battery cheapest?
At Everything Pi, for $3.00, as of our latest check.
