    Hey Mitch. Great product.. I have this version with the overhead controller and red display. We had a nearby lightning strike, and it blew the power supply.. I had another 12v ~3a wall wart sippy, so I replaced it. But when I plug it in now I'm getting the red AND green LEDs on at the same time and it's not working. Is that a reverse polarity indicator? Or is my unit blown?

      Hey Thomas,
      I think the head unit may be blown. We do sell replacement head units which will get your door going again.

      @@FarmLiteUSA PERFECT! I love that you guys sell spare parts! Ordering one now.. Not sure if I have the large or small version.. does it matter?
      Also.. I have a 12v 2.7A supply.. will that give enough juice? (came with a 3A supply that blew apart when we got hit by lightning).
      Thanks man!

      @@ThomasWeeks No problem, yes the 2.7A supply should be sufficient but here's some replacement power cords that work great with the door..

    You explain the settings for 5t 6l. But no mention of how to set the actual time.

      Hey Aaron, fair point I guess I had just assumed and was focused on the actual toggling on/off of the timer/light sensor. So Press Set and the hours will start blinking and you can change the hours as needed on a 24 hour format (8AM = 8:00, 8PM = 20:00) then press set again and the minutes will blink and change them to what local minutes is. +/- buttons change up/down.

      The time is the first thing that gets set.. or just keep hitting SET to bypass that.

    Where is the volume on this video. I had to jack my computer settings to the MAX in order to hear anything.

      Well I recorded this off of my phone so that could be why, per my other comment I'll be redoing all of my videos

    I have no idea what all those letters mean

    • @FarmLiteUSA
      @FarmLiteUSA  Před rokem

      Which letters? They're all with numbers. 2T OP is the Timer Open Time, 3T CL is Timer Close time, 4L OP is light sensor open sensitivity ,then CL is light sensor close sensitivity, 5T is ON or OF for Timer ON or OFF , 6L is for Light Sensor ON or OFF. Just email me if you need more help.

      I love this door with the solar set up 🤩 should be perfect here on the FL TreasureCoast !
      I just built a new henhouse with max security, don't have electric to it though...the only thing missing is a FarmLite door!!
      Can I use a regular lead acid deep cycle 12v ? I already have one of those, one less thing to save up for 😁
