RadioShack Kameleon

Sound and Vision

July/August 2004

We've all been there: your favorite show is about to come on, and the TV remote is teasing you with some ill-timed hide-and-seek. If you have RadioShack's Kameleon 8-in-1 universal remote control, its remote finder will let you zero in on it right away. Just stick the finder wherever you like with the supplied Velcro strip, press its button, and the remote will emit a loud beep. The Kameleon can control up to eight components, and it has a commercial-skip button for use with video recorders that have the handy feature. Back-lighting turns on instantly when you pick up the handset, though you can defeat this function to extend battery life. Price $80.
