I have it hooked up now, but I did have problem. The motor would not turn to open or close. I had to free it up by turning it with my fingers several times. But now it works great.

Quite a few changes from my last one from 2018. I like everything you updated. Hope this one lasts at least as long. Maybe will use up batteries faster. Time will tell.

Highly recommend the chicken guard and door for your coop. Makes life so much easier! First one lasted over 7 years. Couldn’t get the second one fast enough… getting up at 5 to let the chickens out got old really fast. 😂 would totally buy again and completely recommend.

unit works well
A few problem areas that need to be addressed- the blue background light makes it very hard to see in sunlight. I had to put a tarp over it to see. the manual needs to include the instructions need to include how to get into the programing just to adjust the time as the day change, nothing about using the down arrow in the book.

Installed a replacement motor/control box for our hen house. The original one served us well for six years. We love the sensor opening and closing option. the chickens love it too! Thanks for a great product
