Hi Gordon, thanks for getting back to me so quickly. Yes, I used Puck.IR(data) without extra arguments. The battery I did test beforehand because the puck sat in a drawer, still in its packaging, for years and thus despite being brand new I did wonder if it was operational.
I think your last guess it's the right one: I tried with my TV set and with that it works at over a meter distance. It's a shame the light bulbs I have around the house have such poor IR sensors, I had no idea that was a thing.
Thanks again for your help!
