Hello Folks,

I thought that idea of holding a fob against ones skull was an old 
wife's tale - but NO, it works !!   I have tested it several times by 
walking away from my car until the fob no longer worked.   Then held it 
up against my skull (the fob not the car)- and bingo it works.  My 
explanation is that the back of the skull acts as a parabolic dish 
focusing the energy to the target(car).   But it definitely works !!  If 
it doesn't maybe your brain is interfering with the beam :-)



   But I understand the industry is working on a small metal tongue 
which when inserted into a slot will open doors, switch on engines and 
similar.  It will not need a battery and can be copied by most hardware 
stores.  Small and light and small than fobs.
