Overview Details Customer Reviews Category Info Our take on the Alpine RUE-M1RF by Ken Nail The bright sun out on the water does more than give you a great tan — it also makes conventional IR remotes impractical, since the light interferes with the IR remote eye. Alpine solves that problem with the RUE-M1RF RF remote system. Plug the included RF receiver module into the steering wheel controls jack of your compatible Alpine receiver, then use the RF remote to control the receiver from up to 100 feet away. Don't worry about losing your remote when you hit choppy seas. The remote comes with a mounting cup, and you can string it onto a lanyard using the built-in tabs. Best of all, it floats if you do accidentally drop it in the drink. If you're unlucky, or want spares on hand, extra remotes are available.

Crutchfield Customer Review The reviewer purchased this item from us, verified by the email address on the order. I bought this remote for my iDA-X100. It works fine, after I discovered you have to depress the "OFF" button to turn the unit on and off, while the owner's manual sez to use the SRC button. The switch membrane also seems to stick occasionally, which can result in constant transmission. But otherwise, it works like a champ, and I like the idea of a small waterproof remote that uses RF rather than IR for marine use - which means you can use it outside. 6 out of 6 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Yes | No 3 out of 5 Still up in the air on this purchase Written By Rob, San Antonio on Friday, May 30, 2008 I purchased this unit hoping to control my Head Unit from the water. It works from a pretty good distance . . .but I have to push the buttons quite a bit. Almost like they are not working 100% of the time. Kind of bites cuz if you hold the remote and the volume goes WAY up. I have about 2000 Watts RMS (need to be able to bring volume down quickly) on my boat, it takes a good while for the volume to go down. The buttons stick a little also. I am going to call crutchfiedl tech support as I am thinking the battery may be weak. For now, I am giving it a middle of the road rating. Maybe with a new battery I will change my tune. I really like alpine gear. 13 out of 22 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?
