Hopefully I am putting this in the right place.
There is a trove of experience here and thought that someone might have experience with this.
I want to put in some solar powered flood lights, here is an example https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08FCK6G1F/ref=ask_ql_qh_dp_hza. There are other ones as well.
These things come with infrared remotes. My problem is that the remotes for these things have extremely limited range, maybe 30 feet and I want to put one on a shed that is about 77 feet from the house and on a pole that is over 100 feet away. I would like to be able to turn these lights on and off from the house.
Needing to walk out to be close enough for the remote to work would defeat the purpose of putting in the light.
Does anyone know of any way to extend the range of an infrared remote, preferably battery powered. The purpose of using the solar lights is that I do not want to bury wires out to these places.
