I found that the ones I bought from B&Q have a range of about 5 meters and
that is providing there is only one wall between bell push and the ringer.
So unless you have a very small garden in direct line of sight of the bell
push wandering round the garden is not possible with the cheaper models.


The ones I bought from B&Q came in 2 versions - one for short distances and
the other for long distance. I have one of each (bell) with one doorswitch and
the long distance bell works fine in the workshop through four walls. On
testing it worked OK to the middle of the field behind the house.
