How far will it transmit the signal? I would like to know if anyone has determined how farthe the signal is transmitted?

It is a powerful unit for the price and works great. The only thing it misses is a USB power port. I would use an adapter but then I dont have a place for the GPS. My dashboard looks like a mess of wires.

I would guess no more than 20 feet. But it sounds strong in the car (maybe 5 feet from unit to stereo antenna).

Tavis, I'm looking for a similar solution - how did you do it in the end? did you use the 2.4ghz to get that kind of distance?

Really, you will have to experiment with that. Normally, one or two feet would be sufficient for receiving signals. Since that antenna also transmits, it could interfere with your tv antenna. I would try to get 5 or 6 feet from the tv antenna if possible. If not, put it where you can, the cell power is very low and higher in frequency, so It should work fine.

I'm not sold on it. Tried mounting it in a metal building on a roll up door but signal would not pass through metal door. Not sure signal would pass through metal mail box from remote location. Building was about 60' from receiver in the house.

It will receive a Bluetooth signal. It does not transmit the radio over Bluetooth.

I believe within 300-500 fts (not yard b/c 1yard = 3ft). The further away, the signal is weak and sometime it disables itself. It is great within a house (downstair and upstair.) I hope the info will help you in making the selection.

depends on how strong the signal is getting sent out...I'd say 500 feet is very far...I used it for about 100 feet, through a metal garage however, but it struggled. It also depends on how strong the wireless adapter is that's built in the computer (that you're hooking this up to). a better solution is a wireless bridge.

the cable in my unit is about 30 feet. i understand the unit is 1000mW. I easily pick up my signal 150 yards away

I think does about 15 feet....BUT I most commonly use it with my phone placed only a few inches away.... IE I seldom actually use the phone. I do know this device is more reliable than my previous one... HOWEVER it seems to sometimes drop signals in muggy weather any my other blue tooth devices have also done that... Jean

I have mine set about 40 and 50 ft from receiver, both of which are transmitting through one exterior wall and 1 or 2 interior framed walls, with the receiver near mid point, and no problems after a couple of months. As others stated, the update is not immediate, so give it a while for the initial reading. Also, if you move the sensors, I found it helpful to take the batteries out of everything and start again - only takes a couple of minutes and gives some peace of mind. I think without heavily insulated walls, the range is probably more but have no proof.

I am sorry, but I cant help you. I am not a tech-y expert. I will advise that I have no problem with its normal performance as the signal travels between concrete walls in my home.

Mine is probably 40-50 yards away. I'm sure it will do much more than that with the right placement of the receiver. It has always worked great

I checked it at a distance of 15 feet and it worked. Since I sent this to my sister in another country I cannot test the range now. But in that country they may not be using it more than 25 feet. I know that they are very happy with this device.

I've successfully used it up to 50 feet away, but don't know what the longest possible range is. You do not have to be in line of sight -- it will transmit through doors and walls, though the range is reduced.

I have used it up to about 15 ft as long as the receiver was pointed at the transmitter, the receiver is under the hood of my car so the signal is blocked some what.

I have tested the range, and it works very well at long-distance. I can't ever see it not work, because by that time I'm too far away to see the screen. I'd say the range max is probably 35 feet.

When it worked properly, it extended the range about 50 feet. However, it regularly dropped its connection to the router. I ended up giving mine away.
