Easiest Ways to Find Lost Remote Controls
Sure, you may know where your TV remote control is while watching the latest sports game, binge watching Games of Thrones, or your other favorite programs. Yet, things are entirely different when you walk into the room, sit down, and reach for the remote only to discover it is missing.
While your initial reaction might be to put an amber alert out for the missing remote, chances are it never left your home. Before you panic, consider what you were last doing. Did you get up to get a snack and something to drink? Open the fridge and see if you accidentally set it in there. Even though this might sound funny, people have done it.
Your next step is to check the room where you last remember seeing the remote.
- Look under sofa cushions.
- Feel down the sides of furniture.
- Get down and look underneath furniture.
- Check around the TV and your home entertainment center, especially if you have roommates or house guests. They may have placed it here instead of leaving in your favorite spot.
- In the bedroom, look under pillows, pull back sheets, and check in between mattresses, as well as under the bed and furniture.
- If you have children in the home, ask them if they have seen it. They may have carried it off because they were hiding it from a sibling or using it as a toy.
If you still cannot find the remote, you can order a new one from ReplacementRemotes.com online or call us at 1-855-5-REMOTE (1-855-573-6683). We offer a wide range of options, including universal remotes and expedited shipping.
Five Things You Can Do with Your Old and Broken Remote Controls
Do you have a drawer full of broken remote controls or old ones for devices you no longer have? Most of us have at least a few remotes we no longer want or need lying around. Before you toss your broken and old remotes into the trash, here are some alternative and eco-friendly options to consider:
- Recycle remote controls at an authorized recycling location. You can find recycling centers, retailers, and other places, including Replacement Remotes, that will take your old, broken, and unwanted remotes and recycle them for you.
- Recycle TV remote controls by donating them to a vocational or trade school. Students in electronics programs work with all sorts of electronic devices. They may even take your old remote controls and repurpose them into some new device.
- Donate working remotes to a charity/thrift store. You can drop off working remotes at Goodwill, The Salvation Army, and other local charity/thrift stores. They will resell the remotes to someone who needs them.
- Turn the remote into a toy for cosplay events or for your children. You can paint or use stickers to transform the remote into a futuristic looking space gun or another such imaginative toy. Just remember to remove the batteries ahead of time.
- Create your own unique “art” piece using your old remotes. If you are artistic, you could create a sculpture or picture using different parts of your old remotes. You could even sell your artwork to earn some extra money too!
The main thing to remember when getting rid of old and broken remote controls is to not toss them in the trash. They are made of plastics and metals which can be recycled and reused.

Balancing TV Watching in the Family
Among a family’s entertainment options, TV watching is often at the top of the list. Balancing the diverse options on the family’s TV can seem challenging, with so many choices from recordings on the DVR to streaming movies over the internet or playing games on apps on your smart TV.
To help make sure everyone gets to enjoy their favorites and to help prevent fighting over who gets to control the TV remote, we recommend the following tips:
- Limit viewing to two hours each evening after dinner.
- While watching TV, put away all other electronic devices, including smartphones.
- Allow each family member to choose the movie, programs, or games on a different night of the week.
- Make the weekend’s family movie nights, complete with popcorn.
- Never leave the TV on as background noise.
- Use TV watching as a reward for completing homework assignments and chores around the house.
- If you allow your children to watch an hour of afternoon kids’ shows, sit down and watch a few episodes with them to make sure they are age appropriate.
- Remember to use parental controls to block inappropriate channels.
After watching TV for the evening, shut the TV off and make this quiet time, with no electronic devices to help your kids fall asleep faster and easier. If you need a new remote control for your TV or other entertainment devices, remember to call ReplacementRemotes.com at 1-855-5-REMOTE (1-855-573-6683) for help selecting the right remote for your devices.
Universal Remotes Versus Factory Replacements
If you need to replace a TV remote control or other remote that is part of your home entertainment system, you have one of two options: a factory replacement or a universal replacement. To help you determine which one will meet your needs, consider the following:
Factory Replacements
- Only works with one particular device, but does control all of the features and options.
- May work with other devices, but only if they are the same brand and, often, only provides limited functions, like turning the device on or off.
- You may need two, three, or even more separate remotes to control all of your devices.
Universal Replacements
- Easy to control all of the features and options, not on just one but multiple devices.
- Eliminates the need to have numerous remotes lying around.
- A wide array of options and choices from basic to advanced learning models.
- Could include additional features not on a factory replacement, like light-up buttons.
In addition, some universal replacements offer forward-compatibility if you upgrade to a new TV or surround sound system and can be “taught” the various controls and functions of the new device.
In the end, it is really about your own personal preferences, so either choice is acceptable. You can find both factory and universal replacements for your TV and other devices, here at ReplacementRemotes.com. Feel free to browse our selections online or contact us at 1-855-5-REMOTE (1-855-573-6683) for further assistance in choosing the right replacement for your devices.
How to Control Binge Watching and the Amount of Time You Watch TV
For many people, especially Millennials, it can be rather tempting to curl up on the couch, grab their TV remote controls, and start binge watching their favorite television series. Binge watching has become the new “in-thing” to catch up on shows without having to wait a week or longer in between episodes.
However, binge watching can ruin a series because it can take away from its original appeal. Most shows have several different levels of storytelling:
- There can be a story for each episode.
- There can be a story for that particular season.
- And, sometimes, there even can be an overall developing story for the entire series!
Plus, binge watching can be a major letdown after you finish watching all available episodes. Then, you are forced to wait in anticipation for more new episodes, which, sometimes, are not available until a year later!
By altering your binge-watching habits, you can stretch out your favorite programs longer and get more enjoyment out of them.
- Watch only one but no more than two episodes at a time.
- Allow a full day to go by before watching another episode (i.e., every other day).
- Find more than one series you want to catch up on and alternate between them.
- Limit the amount of time you binge watch programs each day to that of a full-length feature film—so, no more than two-and-a-half hours a day.
By changing your binge-watching habits, you will discover you get more enjoyment out of your favorite programs and look forward to future episodes. For universal and TV remotes and related accessories, call ReplacementRemotes.com at 1-855-5-REMOTE (1-855-573-6683).

Use Commercial Breaks to Your Advantage
The average hour-long television show has about 14 minutes of commercial breaks. What are you doing with that time? Flipping through other channels with your remote control or passively watching commercial messages while waiting for your show to come back? Why not put that idle time to good use?
By using those 14 minutes of commercial time for easy household tasks, you can keep from having to set aside another time to do them. This will improve your personal productivity and free up more time during your day for more important activities. Here’s a list of a few things you can do during commercial breaks:
- Plan your day – Make a list of everything you need to do tomorrow. This will help keep you organized and allow you to make better use of your time.
- Make your grocery list – Take advantage of a commercial break to make your shopping list for your next grocery trip. It’ll save you from having to do it later.
- Respond to emails – Use the short commercial break to respond to emails you may have left unread or unanswered during the work day. Also, clean out that inbox.
- Tidy up – Toss your socks in the dirty clothes basket, put away DVDs and books, and perform a few other minor cleaning tasks.
