Anyone using a Remotek BT Controller with MRA ?
-
A few months ago this question was asked by someone using iOS and they were directed to a SilverFox product. There is a significant price difference between the 2 brands and the Remotek sure looks to be up to the task for my purpose with an Android device. Any wisdom on the brand ?

@Kenny-1, I know someone who will dispute this (and add pictures to his comment
), but general consensus on this forum is: "don't do it". It is like paying 130 euro for a 20 cent generic TV remote... Yes there is a price difference, but the quality is incomparable. If you want cheap (like I do ), better check-out BarButtons DIY project, or similar ones.I am not affiliated with MyRoute-App. The help I am offering is entirely voluntary.
I am just an enthusiastic user, and hope you will be one too!Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handlebar to the saddle.

In all my honesty, I think there are better options as @Con-Hennekens said. The Remotek is pretty expensive for what it is. I'd either paying more or paying less
That said, it does get the job done!SilverFox is amazing!

@Con-Hennekens Thanks for this advice. I sure don't want to throw away my hard earned money for anything appearing good but isn't. I am always curious and interested to know what shortcomings and strength differences there are. I see very high end units made for extreme conditions and then there are the 20 euro ones from Ali-Exp and Amazon that look more suitable for bicycles.

@Kenny-1 I can only echo what Corjan said about SilverFox. The quality and performance is top notch, possibly the best that money can buy.
Always willing to help if I can.

@Corjan-Meijerink Thank you as well Corjan. I've read the links to past posts you gave. It really looks just like you said and I would rather spend a bit more up front for a better long term satisfaction. The SilverFox looks the part. Now about the Christmas discounts ... LOL.

@Nick-Carthew Thanks Nick, I agree. It really looks like it's built to last. I'll just need to save a little longer before the purchase.

@Kenny-1 I can assure you that you won’t be disappointed.
