A battery module transceiver (5, fig. 2) for extending the operational range of an infrared remote controller is disclosed. The battery module transceiver comprises (5, fig. 2): a battery power supply (51, fig. 2) received within the battery module transceiver (5, fig. 2) which provides power for the infrared remote controller, and a transceiver (50, fig. 2) received within the battery module transceiver. The transceiver has a detector (52, fig. 5) for detecting a radio frequency pulse (4, fig. 2) accompanying a first infrared signal generated from the infrared remote controller and a transmitter (53, fig. 2) for generating a radio frequency signal (7, fig. 2) in response to the radio frequency pulse (4, fig. 2).
