I am new at this infrared thing and recently bought an IR emitter & Detector LED package. I have made an extremely simple IR Detector circuit consisting of power, IR Detector and an LED I know It works becuase when I hold my TV remote in front of it the LED flashes on the circuit, however this only works when the remote is within an inch before is gets so dim I cant see the LED flash! How can my tv turn on from 10 feet away and how do I apply it to my little circiut thanks
Please list the part numbers of what you did buy.
