great addition to any dust collection system
I bought this product for use with my Delta 1 1/2 HP dust collector, and I can’t recommend it highly enough. Installation is simple (just plug the receiver into the wall, then plug the dust collector into the outlet on the receiver), and a wall mounting bracket is provided. The Long Ranger is rated at 20 amps, but my dust collector draws somewhat more than that in starting up (I had an electrician check it when he installed a new circuit in my shop for it), and the Long Ranger has never complained.Though the instructions warn that certain types of motors (Shop Vacs were mentioned specifically) might cause interference, I’ve had no trouble — the switch performs perfectly from anywhere in my shop, and it’s a lot more convenient than running over to the dust collector every time I start up a power tool!
Update (5/19/2012): This item is currently on sale here for the lowest price I’ve seen.

A must have for your dust collecting system!
When I first started using my Delta 1 1/2hp dust collector, I would roll it over to my lathe, set it up, turn it on, then turn on the lathe. The collecter was loud, a pain to move and adjust and it got to the point that I did not want to go through the hassle of using it. Well, saw dust is extremely bad for you so I decided to install some duct work to motivate me to use it again. I installed 40′ of 5 inch metal pipe and a seperator can to prefilter the saw dust and make it easier on my new filter bags. Now the problem was that I had to cross the room every time I needed to start the dust collector. I am not lazy, I just want to be able to focus on what I am working on.
The answer to my prayers!
I installed the Long Ranger Dust Collector to my DC system and life is now wonderful. When I am working with a tool, all I have to do is push a button and the DC starts or stops. You can every hang in in you pocket with the clip provided. I tested it at a range of 60 feet and it still worked. I also tested about 30 feet away with objects blocking the way and it still worked great. I read a few complaints about blowing breakers. I have not had that problem. Before, I would have to start each piece of equipment and let it get to speed before turning on the next one. Now I can have the DC on a different line so I do not max out my available power.

Can’t beat the convenience or the price.
I am really happy with this purchase. Plug one end in to the wall and the collector into the box. It doesn’t get any simpler. It is so convenient. My collector is on the other side of the shop. It seems like I always get the saw set up, the stock lined up and then I remember to turn on the collector. The remote has a metal clip that allows for hooking on your belt or apron string. A push of the pressure sensitive button and the collector is running. It’s a beautiful thing.
