Upgrade Your Garage Door Opener with Our Advanced PCB!

Elevate your garage door opener experience with our innovative PCB, designed as a cost-effective alternative to the Ratgdo. Enjoy seamless connectivity by integrating it with your home WiFi network, enabling remote control from anywhere using Home Assistant or HomeKit. Plus, with HomeKit integration, you can use Siri to conveniently open your garage door!

Compatibility

This PCB is designed to work with Chamberlain models (yellow learn button) and Liftmaster 2.0 models (also with a yellow learn button). Please note: while the jackshaft wall-mounted models (8500/RJ020 & 8500C/RJ020C) feature a yellow learn button, they utilize Security 1.0 protocol. Our PCB does support Security 1.0 (purple learn button) or dry contact; however, please note that no tech support is provided for this setup.

DIY Setup

This PCB is provided without firmware, allowing you to customize your setup. It is compatible with Paul’s firmware, other firmware options, or HomeKit firmware of your choice.

Package Includes

1x Circuit Board v2.51
1x D1 Mini
1x Custom case

USB type C cable required but not included for setup or power. All circuit boards are rigorously tested before shipping to ensure quality and performance.

Recognizing that an ESP has a limited lifespan, we designed all versions to allow for easy replacement of the ESP module. By avoiding permanent integration into the PCB, you won’t need to purchase an entirely new unit when the ESP eventually needs to be replaced.

Shipping

We offer combined shipping if you wish to purchase multiple units!

Available Versions (see our other listings):

Please see below for detailed descriptions of each version:
Vision: The most feature-packed unit in its class - unmatched on the market! Now with an integrated camera, with motion detection, person motion detection, vehicle motion detection, noise detection, and an alarm for enhanced security. PCB is equipped with a high-gain WiFi antenna for superior connectivity and interference avoidance. Requires 120v outlet for power.
v2.51: Our most popular version and most budget-friendly option. Features a standard D1 Mini and an onboard transformer*. This uses a USB type C.

v2.52: This version uses a powerful ESP32 processor and adds extra sensors only in Home Assistan (buzzer, temperature, and humidity). It includes a standard Wi-Fi antenna and an onboard transformer. It’s compatible with Home Assistant and HomeKit (without the buzzer, temperature and humidity), and it uses USB-C for power.
v2.53: Features a standard D1 Mini with a high-gain WiFi antenna and an onboard transformer. Ideal for setups far from your router or WiFi access point. Note: Antenna is mounted on the case. This uses a micro USB.
v2.54: Same as 2.52 but with a high-gain WiFi antenna.Compatible with Home Assistant and Home kit. This uses a USB type c.
*An onboard transformer allows for power via a 6V to 30V battery from your Chamberlain or LiftMaster. You can still use instead a micro USB to 120v outlet if preferred. Connector for battery is on the PCB, but you will need to determine the best method (e.g., alligator clips, quick splice connectors, soldering) to wire and connect to your battery as this will vary with each model.
