Two remotes on Gemini Air - Random Disconnects

I have a new Gemini Air with two remotes.   Sometimes one or the other is disconnected when I power it on.  It seems to be the first time I use it after a while of it being off.   The batteries are new and it connects again after going into the system menu and adding the remote.

Anyone else experience this?  Any solutions?

Thanks!

You can only pair one Gemini Air remote with a single Gemini Air. If you want to add a second remote you can use a universal remote. I have used an older Harmony remote with mine and it works great as a second remote.

Thanks Lou.   Many people have 2, 3 or 4 remotes paired to the Gemini Air without issue.

When I first tried to program a second Gemini remote, with my Gemini, it would connect the second one but disconnect the first one. That was why I bought the Harmony to use as a second remote, that may be changed now, as it was a while ago.

Hey Lou.    Maybe they are still working on getting it to function correctly.   

My Harmony died recently. :(   I am so bummed they killed the Harmony line of remotes.   Best darn remote ever made.

Agree on the Harmony remote. Recently went to buy another for camp, and saw they are history.
