Does anyone else use the lights feature to help them find it at night in a car park?

Also, have you tried holding the remote to your head? it works, it extends the range, no idea how Whistle

I used the remote light function quite a few times

The last time in a car park, walking back to it after the movies one late evening, and started just flashing them on and off, on and off, just for the shear fun of it

When i got closer the car parked opposite was all steamed up and the couple was puting theirs tops back on, looking all startled in the xenon headlights Rolling with laughter

It's a good way to cook your brain too!
Technically, you are probably modifying the antenna from an omni directional to a cardioid pattern, thus focussing energy more in one direction. You'd also perhaps be shrouding less of the fob with your hand.
