Maybe this is why the Shop Fox was so much cheaper than the Long Ranger.
So has anyone else had their Shop Fox or Long Ranger remote triggered by
surprise?

I actually came back from getting a cup of coffee in the house one morning
and found my DC running, but I had the Rockler remote in my apron pocket and
assumed that I had somehow turned it on by accident.

From previous experience/testing, the Rockler remote unit I have will
operate the DC from the front porch of the house with the shop doors closed.


Mine comes on when I lean over wrong: I keep the control in my shop apron
pocket. I've had to start taking it out of my pocket when I'm doing tasks
that require a lot of bending.

The mystery with mine is that I will occasionally hear "beeps" coming
from the digital switch. Sometimes I can cause this by squeezing the
remote case, other times, it seems to happen on its own.
