Three months old multiply problems. Customer service??? don't call they never answer. Just set up a call back online for next week see if that works. so far two blown fuses gate never closed in the same spot sometimes opened okay sometimes would stop during travel and start back up. Now doesn't work at all. Update 7/29/2026 They called back per schedule confirmed problem and sent new motor quickly, they need to change recording.

The product is excellent and easy to install, however, when you contact tech support with questions concerning your installation, they clearly are under instructions to simply refer the customer to the installation instructions, or they just repeat them to you over the phone. I guess they are concerned about liability. I get it, but that is not helpful. I can read. For example, they will not move off of using 16/2 wire of no more than 100ft on their 30w solar panel. Any electrician will tell you that 12/2 would work better at all distances, without excessive voltage drop on this low volt system when further than 100ft. I tested the solar panel with the installed 12ft of 16/2...24v. I tested the panel at 112ft connecting 100ft of 12/2 to the installed wire...23.7v. I tested the panel at 200ft using 12/2 connected to the 12 ft of 16/2....23.7v. I tested it with just 200ft of 12/2...23.7v. The panel is rated from 18-22v, so all of my results exceeded that. I live in a forest, so the additional distance is very helpful to find sunlight. Wassssupp Ghost Controls? Try to be more creative for your customers.....thus only 4 stars. Final note, desoldering the installed 16/2 is not hard. Installing 12/2 in its place required some slight mod to the connection box for the thicker wire, but it is not rocket surgery.
