A Faux blocker that you can buy at Target!!!!
What is TV-B-GoneTM?

TV-B-Gone

Hangs on your keychain and turns off virtually any television!

We have 2 models of TV-B-GoneTM remote controls:

* North American & Asian model ($14.99 USD)
* European model ($14.99 USD)

The North American & Asian model works for
televisions in US, Canada, Mexico, as well as many Asian countries.
The European model works for televisions in European countries.


DIRECTIONS for using your TV-B-GoneTM:

1. Point it at a TV set
2. Press the button (no need to hold the button down)
3. Keep pointing it at the TV until the TV turns off (which may take up to 69 seconds).

Tips on effective use of your TV-B-GoneTM:

Your TV-B-Gone remote control is very much like any other remote control but there are some differences that you should be aware of.

One difference is that there is no indicator light to tell you that it is on. The small, clear emitter node at the front will not light up or glow (actually, it does light up with infra-red light but you can't see it!).

Another difference is that your TV-B-GoneTM remote control is very small and weighs very little compared to most other remote controls. The batteries are also extremely small, but be assured that batteries (watch batteries) are included and already installed within the device!!!

It may take up to 69 seconds for the television to turn off, but most TV's will turn off within the first few seconds. Although we tried our best to make your TV-B-Gone remote control turn off any and all TV's, there may be some few that it won't turn off.

After you press the button on your TV-B-GoneTM remote control, it ignores further button pressing for 69 seconds. If you want to turn your television back on or if you want to turn another TV off, please wait 69 seconds before using your device again.

How does your TV-B-GoneTMwork?:

Your TV-B-GoneTM universal remote control is very much like any other tv remote control. It is harmless to televisions. It is harmless to humans and other animals (in fact, it is quite beneficial, since it turns televisions off).

RANGE: 20 feet to 50 feet (7 meters to 17 meters), depending on the make and model of the tv.

Note: The range is much less if you are on the side of the tv. To be most effective, please be within 30 degrees from the front of the tv.

PHYSICAL SIZE: TV-B-GoneTM remote controls have a keychain built into them, and are small enough to fit in your pocket with your keys:

1.92" x 2.27" x .675" inches
4.88 x 5.77 x 1.71 cm

1. Wonderful!

Lots of motels keep big TVs tuned to Faux in their lobbies, as I learned during a business trip last year. Mainstream media mind control is everywhere.
