So, my TVBGone is built and it works ......not as good as i thougt.
The TVs behind opposite windows wont go off! no 30m! Even with a convex/conkav? lens!
white curtains shounldt be in the way; illuminated whit the IR Light it would be self a emiting ...Thing.
Today i tried to take 3x instead 2x 1,2 AAs: BUT; In the Camera display i see the LED shine bright. But no flickering!
Even if it brighter now, the interrupts should be to see on the display.
...Why?
PS. i dont dare to try if the 'obviously non flickering LED ' turns the TV off to. I dont want zu run it to long, not wanting to destroyinh/burning somethig elecricity.
4.5V LED dont flicker. just shining so bright.

Re: 4.5V LED dont flicker. just shining so bright.
Ok, i tryed 2 new Batteries: now it shines brigth AND the TV goes off! (It just wasnt seen on Cameadisplay, becaus thats to slow) Tonight i try again 'break' trough the windows.
i almost was about to write: But whit 3 AA the controll LED pulses slowly (7 times, one per second) and the IR-LEDs do nothing.
It worked before and after. but only with 3V, not 4,5V.
.........a last try...........
PS: i don't know why but now it works! even with 4,5
do it pulse slowly if the direction is wrong?
