2 Dorr garage

I have a two door garage, I sometime park behind one or the other depending what's on the other side. Don't know if I could have done it differently but I ordered and installed two of these on my bike, one for each door and connected them to the left and right flashers, so if i flash left coming to the garage, the left door opens and if I flash right, well you guest it, the right door opens. I'm satisfied, I think it's a neat little gadget to have and should have done it sooner...

Gated Community Note

If you're interested in the F2P opener inorder to open both your garage door and the gate of a gated neighborhood you should check with the association 1st to see if it's OK to install a F2P reciever at the gate. My association denied the request so I'm still using the old remote. That's the reason for only 4 stars.

I tie-wrapped the sending unit to the inside of the left passenger speaker cover and ran the wires under the seat to a waterproofed momentary on/off switch that I put in the Emergency Flasher switch pannel.

Mounting the sending unit in the rear speaker well lets me open the garage door at the same place as the old sending unit.

Not Impressed

Save your money and go buy an extra controller for your opener. I was not impressed by the range I had to be right at my door before it would work so I removed it and am going to just find somebody that wants it for free.

Works great and allows me to control both the opener in the garage and the one in my bike shed. The installation was easy - I had seen a video on You Tube and referenced that as an easy guide to selecting the right wires. I mounted the transmitter under the seat on the left side and wire tied it to the frame. The included Posi-tap connectors made installation a snap, although I wish I'd seen the plug-and-play adapter available when I purchased.

The installation in my garage was simple. I mounted the receiver on the ceiling near the opener as I already had a wall mounted button. The opener works as I pull up to the driveway. I am also lucky enough to have a separate motorcycle garage with an automatic roll up door. This door required a power adapter, which I didn't order. I had an old adapter on hand that was the right output voltage, went to Radio Shack and bought the right connector, and plugged the adapter into the receiver. Worked great and cost me under $3 - and put an old adapter to use!

Had product installed by nearby Honda shop. Had no issues with it. Real handy. Don't have to shine headlights directly at door for it to work. Great item! Plan on getting one for my truck and my wifes car. Would endorse.

Install and could never get it to work. Install was not sinple. Removed from bike and tried on another vehicle and still did not work. I probably got the one in a millon DOA.
Couldn't get it exchanged or return because I bought it during the winter and didn't install for a month or two. Lost receipt. I chock this one up as lesson learned. :-/

I installed this like the directions stated and put the opener by my old opener just outside the door going in the house. When i went to try it , it would only work if i was just out side in front of the door. I moved the opener so it was right beside the large garage door and used speaker wire to hook it directly to the opener motor. Now i can open the door just before my neighbors edge of the property and my old opener still works the same. Works good now. The electrical hook ups for hooking to the bike were super easy to use. In all it took me about 1/2 hour.

If you commute like I do each day, this is a must have. Works awesome. The range can be a touch short, but still better then getting off the bike and all.

Great idea, not such great installation instructions, REALLY poor transmission strength. Mine was one of the "5%" that needed the optional transformer. But, even with that, it only works when my bike is actually inside the garage. Outside the garage with the door open it works maybe 1 time in 5. With the door shut, it doesn't work at all. Waste of money and effort in my opinion.
