Morning all,
I'm working on a new carpc build of kodi which runs on a Raspberry Pi 3b machine. I'm looking for a suitable remote, any ideas?
Would need to be:
- Long battery life
- USB chargeable
- Small and thin
- Responsive in kodi

Have a look at the rii25. Seems to fit your needs.
Edit: this remote has a couple of ir buttons which might be useless on the pi without dongle, btw

Just mentioning it since it was on the 'must have' list.
Penlites are ofcourse fine ;-)

Look for the Rii Mini i8.
It has a long battery life and is rechargeable using the included charging cord. It's small and thin, and comes with its own wifi dongle. You can even select the colour of the keypad. The only reason I have it is for Kodi, and it works just fine with my Raspberry Pi.
