Fred et al:

I would agree.  When used with decent power cables, good connectors 
properly applied and overall length of 4 ft or so, remote sensing will 
likely bring more issues to the table than necessary. Additional wiring, 
additional connectors and filtering required to keep RF out and the 
overall system stable.

Now if one has to run DC power 20 to 30 ft then remote sensing is most 
likely necessary.
