Common questions

- Yes if the battery lives outside the opener housing. A vented, weather-sealed box extends battery life significantly and protects against corrosion.
- What size battery box do I need?
- Match to your battery footprint plus 1 inch on each side for airflow. For a 7–12 Ah battery, a 10x6x6 in box is typical.
