The cable is about 10' long. The intervalometer is large enough I won't
lose it stuffing it in a camera bag. I've lost a couple of Pentax IR
remotes that way.
The cord rolls up & I can put it in my hip pocket. It has survived the
couple of times I've forgotten it was in there when I packed my gear,
got in the car & sat on it when I drove off with no problems.
The advantage it has over the IR remote for group selfies is I can set
the delay long enough that I have time to verify it's counting down &
still WALK over to take my place in the group.

Where do you store the intervalometer ?
2. It lacks range when shooting in even moderately bright light.
Looks like the intervalometer also has a short range.

I've been using one of those cheap Chinese multifunction intervalometers.

Available in several different "brand" names & also available locally if
you have access to a real camera store.

I think it must be humor of some sort.
AFAIK, none of Pentax's DSLRs work with a mechanical release. I think
the last Pentax film camera that accepted a mechanical release was the
A3000.

Speaking of that mill from which some say they run... I've recently
bought a wireless Qi charger for my cell phone. It was like less than
USD 4 from AliExpress... If I did not tell you - I doubt that even
with close inspection you would be able to tell it apart from the
original Samsung piece of kit. Sturdy, same font, good build, etc...
Works like a charm, by the way...
