Review on πŸ”‘ Mighty Mule FM137 Wireless Digital Keypad: Convenient Access Control Solution by John Roberts

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Mighty FRUSTING

I bought two of these to replace two old Mighty Mule keyboards I installed on our ranch three years ago. The old blocks worked great, but after three years they both weathered and started to wear out from UV exposure, so I decided to take the initiative and replace them before anything went wrong. I also bought two new remote controlled gate openers to fit our vehicles. I've set the DIP switches in the remotes to the same settings as our old remotes (they still work fine too), but. These new keypads will NOT program and open our gates. We followed the instructions in the package and it didn't work. I even downloaded the instructions to make sure we had the right ones and after several days trying to program these two new wireless keyboards, NO LUCK. I believe our old ones were made in the US and the new ones are made in China now. When we called the toll free number we only heard a ring then voicemail and then a wait-wait-wait and we gave up the wait. .One reviewer stated that they only work on batteries (double AA) but have a hardwiring feature. Speaking of "tough," it's difficult (or as many reviewers here state) impossible to get them to work in a wireless configuration like the one listed in the seller's listing here.

Pros
  • Happy so far
Cons
  • I'll text back
