Wondering if the problem is with the remote or just with the exhausted batteries? #Random Tip - 3

Hi friends

Back again with another life time never forgetting usable tip.

We often experience situations like TV,AC remotes not working properly. We wonder if the problem is with the batteries or the remote itself or with the TV/AC receiver.
Here's a way to easily check.

Generally, the light emitted from IR emitter (bulb like thing in all remotes) installed in your TV, AC or any other remotes when a button is not VISIBLE.

But if you do watch it through any digital camera( even that of mobile phone ), you can actually see the light coming out of it whenever a button is pressed.

So from the next time, you can check if your remote is working properly with your camera(may be a mobile camera ;)).

#additionalTip
If your remote's battery is weak, you will see weak light.(light of less intensity)

Have a nice day.
