Making a Logitech Harmony 900 remote IR mini blaster extension cable

Though not IT related, this might help a fellow home theater aficionado. I use a Logitech Harmony 900 for my home theater room. This is Logitech's latest RF remote which you can see here: http://www.logitech.com/en-us/remotes/universal_remotes/devices/5874

As pictured above, it comes with an IR receiver and two IR mini blasters which convert the RF signal to IR. These blasters are 6 ft. in length allowing you to stick them practically anywhere to control your AV equipment. My dilemma 6 ft. was not enough to run one of these mini blasters from the IR base receiver through the wall, through the ceiling, and down into the home theater room to control the projector.

Since these IR mini blasters have 2.5 mm jacks that connect them to the base RF receiver, I figured I could try using an extension cable and hopefully not lose any signal in the process. I bought a 12 ft. extension from Amazon for just $5.99. It was worth a shot:

I attached the extension cable to the mini blaster end and then the other end of the extension cable to the base receiver. That effectively gave me an 18 ft. mini blaster. Ran it through the wall and ceiling, then used double sided mirror tape to attach the blaster portion to the ceiling pointed at the projector which is a good 15 ft. to the back of the room. It works flawlessly and it's barely noticeable attached to the ceiling! I hope this IR extension cable helps anyone that was in the same situation as me. Please do comment if it works for you. :)
