New Replacement Panasonic N2QAYB000780 Remote Control Compatible with Panasonic HDD Box Recorder TV DVD Recorder DMR-HWT230EB DMR-HWT130EB DMR-PWT635 BLU RAY - No Setup Required

Good price, replacement for worn out Panasonic HDD remote, works very well.

Did not work out of the box! To set remote to your PVR unit. 1.press power button on PVR to turn unit on. 2.press and hold OK and number 6 buttons together on remote until display on PVR unit changes. ( or 1 to 5 if another remote uses code 6). Works perfectly but as other reviews have stated the 2 AA batteries rattle. some masking tape around battery sorted this but had to reprogram remote again after removing batteries. Hope this helps.

As already mentioned in other reviews, the buttons are a bit stiff (which can be difficult around the central circular buttons) and the batteries rattle (think it needs a bit of padding). Note it requires AA batteries, NOT AAA and it's easiest to slide them in from the top. But given the price, works well and does what it needs to do!

Excellnt value and product this is the second one I have bought no problem with them last a long time

Remote did not appear to work, so returned and ordered another one. This was the same, but I then found that it did work by pressing the buttons really hard. Although it has the same model number as my old one which has a dodgy button it is not identical. It is longer, has a different battery compartment and these very stiff buttons. So I will be using two controls - my old one with responsive buttons and the new one for the one button I use a lot !!!!

Lasted 3 days and then totally dead. I have a spare genuine Panasonic remote which works fine. Even swapped the batteries! The one I'm reviewing was completely dead with no infrared output once it failed.... up until then, it was OK... Requested a return and refund. I'll go with a genuine Panasonic one next time.

Delighted to discover that it works straight away and I didn't have to link it to my set top box or anything else! Bought this for the Panasonic Recorder HDD DMR-HWT250EB and it does the job. So far using it is just like using the original handset. A couple of the buttons are in different positions but the most used are in the exact same place as the original Panasonic one. As previous reviews mentioned this replacement is lighter, slightly bigger and the batteries needed are, 2 X AA , fitting differently into this handset and yes there's a tiny rattle when handset is moved but not troublesome at all.

This is not the quality of an original - biggest issue is that the batteries don't fit well and so it works intermittently which is annoying when fast forwarding and then not able to stop! Rubber keys are not easy to use.
