There's info about that here:

I have the green one and it works fine in the UK, even if it's not 'approved' - but it's easy to burn up the battery without realising it. There's also a mod you can do to increase the range but you'll have to google for it.

[john tranter]

yes the demo works great

[Geoff Maynard]

Check the battery. It eats them if it's left switched on.
