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.


You can’t read? Damn I don’t think I’d admit that.
In case it still isn’t clear, I said I am forgetful.
Oh perfect it’s lunch time, I needed some salt for my fries.
