I am planning on buying a second one of these bulbs, can I use the same remote for both? And how?

My guess is yes, the picture looks like the same remote I have for another style bulb. If buying the same style bulb I would be even more confident one remote will work on both bulbs. The remote is infrared light so should work on both.

You can use the same remote for both, its basically an IR emitter and the bulb looks for a certain ir blink pattern, the control patterns are the same for both bulbs
1742897
Yes, one remote works for all bulbs, automatically, because they are all on the same IR channels.

Yeah. I have a lamp that takes 3 of these bulbs and the remote will control all 3 together. Or you can aim careful at each bulb and pick 3 different colors

This item will use the same bulbs.Please let me know if there is anything else I can do for you or if you have any questions.Sincerely,Briana

I seriously doubt it. You really need to be pointing at the unit with the remote, so as long as one isn't within line of site you can prob use both within same room.

yes. as long as they were not too far apart from each other. we had the ones we tried about 5 feet apart in can lights and one remote worked for both.

Yes the HDE remotes seem to be interchangeable. I have the 9w & 3w bulb models and the remotes control either unit. They are IR remote controls so each bulb acts independently of the others. The settings are pretty simple though. I'm writing a review now.

No there's not a remote that comes with it, although I have seen models that offer that. We haven't had a bulb go out yet, but we also use them very sparingly. I believe it takes 4 AA batteries, or AAA, sorry I can't remember which. As for the bulbs, I don't see them being replaceable and didn't read the directions as well as I should have. Wish I could be more help.

If the lights are installed closely to each other, they are very likely to pick up the same signal from the remote when you operate the remote. However, you can create a physical barrier and "isolate" the light bulb that you need to be a different color.

I have two bulbs and only need one remote. Each bulb come with a remote so I have two remotes but you only use one to manage both bulbs. Hope this helps.

Good question!!!! I never tried it but I'm pretty sure you can.... I'm sure they made a remote for all bulbs and not make a million different remotes for each bulb... The only thing is if the remote can turn on both bulbs at the same time

I have found that if I hold the remote close to each bulb I can change them to different colors. The bad thing is that they reset each time you turn them off so you have to set them every time you turn them on.

I bought only one set - remote + bulb. But I read that you can use one remote for all bulb of this type.

I cannot give you a solid answer on that, but Im pretty sure if you bout two strips, one remote would work on both.

Yes one remote would control both (or more than 2) dimmers. Unfortunately for those wanting to have several different sets of lights (for example ceiling lights and plugged in table lights on two different dimmers) this can't be done. All the remotes and switches use the same IR code so you can't address each dimmer separately. A big shame.

No, the remotes all have a different code. If you have two sets of lights plugged together you can use one remote.

Yes, one remote will operate multiple identical bulbs. I have one in the tower pier on each side of the 60" flat-screen and the remote turns them on and simultaneously changes the operation when a button is pressed.

I have two bulbs maybe four feet apart. If I hit the remote from far enough away (so they are both line of sight to the remote), they both go on/off at the same time. Unless you are standing/aiming the remote so that a bulb or bulbs are not in line of sight, you SHOULD be able to power them all on or off with one button press.
