I agree with some of the other posters this is ridiculous i mean obviously the remote could fall out of the encasement. i'm thinking bullet proof glass

Why did I not think of that. Maybe because I have some since.

Looks cool, but since it works by detecting shadows, does that mean it's virtually useless in low light/very bright light environments? Does it work with more than one light? Seems a bit too limiting. Props to the guy for making it though.

This is a brilliant idea! I will do this to my a/c remote which keeps missing from my room!

This reminds me of the restroom key at the store I used to work, we had it on the same key chain as a small radiator. We never lost the key!

Nice job, we also can use it to protect ourselves.

of course you know just getting a tv that can use a wifi remote then use a universal remote app on an iPhone or iPod touch.. who is going to loose their cellular.

Are we sure this isn't an "art" project symbolizing how chained down we are by our TV's? This would be perfect for my house with 2 small kids, except they need to coat it in a 2 inch layer of Nerf material...

I had a remote surgically implanted in my head. Funny, I still lose it sometimes.

hahahaha, you know. i have a four year old that thinks daddy likes to look for the remote. in fact rightbefore logging on i had a nice 10 min. search for the remote because she couldn't remember where she hid it. if i had this i may never loose it, that is not until she finds a way to either cut the chain or hide the anvil all together.

ThereIFixedIt.com is one of my favorite sites, they really know how to take a problem and just fix it. It's usually cheap and simple. This is a great example. I think something a bit less noticeable would be nice. Maybe paint it to match the decor.

I'd buy one, that sounds like too much work for a DIY project.

I'd personaly use a thinner chain. And most likely just padlock the chain to something. I tend to hit my toes on furniture often enough as it is. The idea of having a piece of railway track on my living room just does not suit :)
