Genie GIT-1BL One-Button Remote Control with Intellicode Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I love my two-year old Overhead Door Legacy garage door opener, but a couple of weeks ago, I lost one of the remote transmitters (clicker) somehow and I got a nasty surprise. Seems that the Overhead Door people wanted to sell me the replacement for $39, plus state tax! I was determined to get this simple one-button remote for less than that.
My research turned up all kinds of confusing information, but I finally understood that Genie "Intellicode" and Overhead Door "Codedodger" technology is pretty much the same. After reading the specs on twelve different Genie remotes I decided to take a chance on this one, ordering it from Sanford & Son. Sanford & Son is amazing! I placed my order late on a Monday afternoon and the remote was in my hand with the delivery of the mail Thursday of the same week. And, there was no shipping charge!
Programming the remote took less than 60 seconds. It is a simple process of activating a "learn" function between the base unit and the remote (instructions are included). In appearance and function, the Genie and the Overhead Door remotes are identical, except for the wording on them.
Bottom line -- Instead of paying about $42 to buy a replacement Overhead Door remote locally, I bought this Genie remote from Sanford & Son for less than half that (special battery is included in the price) and it works perfectly.

Linear 3089 300 MHz One-Button Visor Remote(See Tech. Details Below) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As president of my Home Owners Association, the company that installed our gate handed me 130 of these to pass out among the residents. After half of them were out, the gate company told me that they'd not been programmed properly. Fortunately, they are a snap to program. Open it up. Flip the 10 toggle switches to the proper code. Close. Use. Runs on a 9V battery.

Linear Multi-code 300MHz 1-Channel Key Ring Transmitter Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Out of well over 1,300 Amazon reviews, I have only given just two one-star ratings. Unfortunately, in spite of the glowing reviews from others on this product, I have to give my third to this utterly lacking Multi-Code single-channel micro transmitter. I needed a portable garage opener for a building that has a system that predates anyone who lives in the building now. Given its miniature size, this looked like a fine selection as it provides the necessary match to the increasingly rare ten-switch operation. In fact, I was excited that I received two of the remotes for the price.
I enthusiastically changed the switch positions to match the ten switches in the main component of the garage opening system. However, to my chagrin, neither remote worked with the system, even after I replaced the batteries included for ones I purchased at an electronics store. Luckily, I still have an old remote that works, but it is on the verge of disrepair. I could understand if one of the two remotes was inoperable due to manufacturing error, but for both to be inoperable, it shows me that there are non-disclosed limits to the compatibility of this remote to systems. Be forewarned that you will run this risk as well if you blindly purchase this product based solely on its ten-switch capability.

Keyless Entry Deadbolt, Antique Brass Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The advertisement on the internet fails to mention a couple of things:
1) The numbers in the combination can be entered in ANY ORDER, exponentially reducing the number of possible combinations. If you choose 2345, you could also open the lock if you push 5432, 3245, any other order of those digits, or if you push those 4 digits simultaneously.
2) The lock as purchased only allows you to choose up to 4 digits for your combination. You have to send away and pay more for the other 2 digits.
