Does anyone know how to extend the range on the 2nd gen es keyfob... according to the owners manual and based on experience its about 1 meter... 3 feet....so the only thing the remote opener does is save the paint in the vicinity of the lock.... I thought about a different antenna for the rf portion of the opener......

maybe just change your battery in the fob?
It opens much further than that. I can be an easy 8-10 feet away and it will chirp opened.
Note that even if you extend the range, it re-locks in a certain time delay (I think its 30sec) so if you dont open the door by then, kinda defeats the purpose

Mine will lock/unlock it from WAY farther away than that. 100' maybe...
