The incessant beeping your hear from your garage since your power outage, is the Chamberlain garage door opener telling you the battery is low.

The garage door opener is something that should be on a UPS. I've been caught by that before.


@zl2tod The new ones have a built in battery so people don't get trapped (although, there is an emergency release.... many people do not know what it does. I do, because 2017 fire storms in Santa Rosa killed people in their garages from not knowing how to open them manually)

@ai6yr

the beep from our Chamberlain garage door opener lasted 48 hours in May from the derecho winds power outage, and again seven weeks later it beeped 36+ hours from Hurricane Beryl power line damage just west of Houston.

* our house is now surrounded by 4 neighbors with new natural gas generators


@HoustonDog Gahhhhh
