I was forced to purchase an opener with battery backup. It has never worked! Waste of money and a stupid law that needs to be changed.

In reply to Mike. I also intend to do exactly the same with our opener that's on its last legs! Screw that BS law. Our neighbor has one of those openers with the battery backup and the battery died in less than 2 years. I hate the idea of wasting around 60 bucks every 2 years on this idiocy.

I purchased from out of state and installed non compliant units all the time. State of California doesn’t get to tell me as free American what i can and can’t install.

So right now I’m stuck having to pay for this expensive back up. It’s for stupid people. Who does not know how to to release the damn garage door. It’s pretty simple. Why don’t you just have a teaching program to show stupid people how to use it! Now I’m stuck paying for something I don’t need. I know how to get out of my garage without electricity. You should pay those of us who are on a fixed budget who have knownfor YEARS how to get the garage door open.

Good to know that you should have a backup battery checked every once in a while. I would think that would be a good way to make sure that it is still working. I’ll have to consider getting a new battery for mine since it has been quite a while since I had it changed.
