Chamberlain Exhaust Amazing

from competitor offerings Base=Plug and Play then adjust volume and too many "songs/tune/sounds" to list and not required (some bloody long) Remotes are TOO EASY to assemble then the start button + button is easy after installation accessible for setup sensitivity. , against Chamberlain, just constantly feeling car butts WITHOUT BATTERIES! Well, we'll see in 3 years. Even SOLAR charges batteries to keep it going these days. If the Chamberlain fails or sends false positives in high temperature/humidity (Southeast Texas), there are no such fleas in this system. However, it took less time to install it from scratch than it did to take apart ANY CHAMBERLANE REMOTE, change the batteries or tweak the inside of them. For now I would like to say that the extra time saved on receipt is well worth it, not to mention the 3 years without batteries. + saved future setup time WHOOHOO, a dream come true = Install a sensor on the first try that notifies me when USPS mail is delivered more than 150 yards through trees, even !ONLY CONS: The base unit can't follow you while you visiting are the remote sensors to see the best placement and then the ideal sensitivity setting. Had it had backup batteries on board, this would have been an SOP and made possible through tuning. SOLUTION = Sensors EASILY slide out of their mounts (unlike Chamberlain) so just bring them to the bell + sensitivity, so easy to mount to the sensor back button, easy trial/error time but much less than screwing (literally) internal Chamberlain -Switch.

Pros
  • SOLAR POWERED NO BATTERIES NEED TO REPLACE - The sensor is powered by a built in rechargeable lithium ion battery which is charged via the solar panel eliminating the need for battery replacement. (PS. The sensor can also be powered by a 5-12V DC power adapter or an optional solar panel sold by HTZSAFE if the sensor is installed indoors or in dark areas.)
Cons
  • Only available in white
