Review: Life Is So Much Easier - I was looking for a system where I would be able to not only open my garage door but turn on my front porch lights as well as my front entrance lights inside of my home. There are nights I work very late and my wife comes home around 7pm. In the winter time it is usually very dark. There have been a few intrusions in my neighbourhood and it had her a little on edge about coming home late to a dark house. I did some research on desertcart and discovered these Skylink products. I purchased this, along with the TC-318-7 transmitter, the LS-318 screw-in dimmer receiver and the ID-318 motion sensor transmitter. Now, my wife is able to turn on all of the lights and open the garage door before getting out of her car. Being able to walk into a well lit home has eased her nerves. It has granted us a sense of safety and security, especially during what seems to be like "Home Invasion" season in our neighbourhood. I intend on purchasing more receivers to control more lighting throughout the house. I will eventually have all the lights on our main and upper floor controlled by this one remote. The installation was simple, something I can do without being much of a handy man myself. I would Definitely recommend this product to others! Review: Had issues initially, but works in the end - I bought this to replace the original button box that came with the kit. The first unit had a flaky connection, once I installed it the door would activate randomly. When I replaced the first unit with the second one (this purchase), the problem went away. When you install be careful about stressing the wire that connects to the door opener switch, it has no strain relief inside the box and on the flaky unit I think there was a loose connection. Also, my opener required the additional power supply. So overall I had some installation issues, but now it is working perfectly with both a wireless keypad and a key fob. So satisfied in the end. ## Features - Easy DIY (Do It Yourself) installation - One step installation - Simply replace or parallel your traditional wall button - Smart Button receives signal from remote to open/ close your garage door. - Compatible with up to 16 Skylink remote controls (Skylink Garage Door Remote Transmitters sold separately) - Rolling Code technology ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Additional Features | Universal | | Brand | SKYLINK | | Color | Off White | | Compatible Devices | Garage door openers and up to 15 remote controls | | Connectivity Technology | Infrared | | Item Weight | 5.6 ounces | | Max Number of Supported Devices | 1 | | Maximum Number of Supported Devices | 1 | | Special Feature | Universal | ## Product Details - **Brand:** SKYLINK - **Special Feature:** Universal - **Color:** Off White - **Max Number of Supported Devices:** 1 - **Compatible Devices:** Garage door openers and up to 15 remote controls ## Images ![SkylinkHome GB-318 Smart Button Universal Garage Door Opener Remote Controllable Home Control Automation Receiver - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51W2Y-+PcQL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Life Is So Much Easier *by H***N on June 19, 2013* I was looking for a system where I would be able to not only open my garage door but turn on my front porch lights as well as my front entrance lights inside of my home.
