Eneloops would only last about 3 weeks. And disposable last 2 months. This door is used a lot and since it has Zwave and a door open sensor it sends info on every open.
Bonus, since it can handle the lipo AA batteries that put out 1.8v and it gives the motor more oomph I made the battery pack give 7.2v and it never sticks anymore.
This is a garage-door so its not critical access but is used a lot.
We just discovered a wide ass step crack in ours. Did I mention ive been jobless since April? 🤣😭😭😭 I just accepted a job offer thank god but the on boarding process is loooong
Brutal! There’s so many DIY projects I’m willing to tackle but that is definitely not one of them
