About Chamberlain Group B1381 Bright LED Lighting Smartphone-Controlled Ultra-Quiet and Strong Belt Drive Garage Door Opener
Overall Feedback:
63% positive
73% liked the backup power
I was surprised to see that the backup battery works great and the garage door opener can work without street power. Based on my experience, I can say that the garage door opener is reliable.
69% found it compatible, however 31% faced problems
Installation is super easy if you have an existing belt drive Chamberlain, Liftmaster, or Craftsman GDO, as the rail/belt system should be the same and not need replacement if still in good working order.
I advise not activating the opener with myQ if you plan to use Alarm.com integration. The opener can only be activated with one system at a time. I learned this the hard way and had to delete the opener from myQ before integrating it with Alarm.com.
69% liked the quite operations
I have experienced that the new garage door opener is incredibly quiet and opens the door effortlessly compared to the old one that always struggled. The rubber belt mechanism makes it silent. This review expresses my positive feedback on the quiet operation feature of the garage door opener.
77% were impressed with safety sensors, yet 23% encountered issues
I faced issues with the garage door opener due to shoddy wiring done by the previous owner of the house. The connection faults and door sensors were also affected.
I have noticed that the garage door closes even with the safety sensor laser blocked, which is a serious safety concern.
67% were impressed with the security features, while 33% weren't
The smart features are nice. I don't have to worry about leaving the garage open all night anymore. I can also open or close the garage door from anywhere with the app on my phone.
Being able to open/close garage door using my smartphone from anywhere in the world or get instant notifications is useful, but it opens additional attack vectors that may compromise security of my home.
