Tools and Hardware Reviews of Genie GIT-1BL One-Button Remote Control with Intellicode
Customer Review: over price on shipping and handling!
Summary: 5 Stars
I order two Genie GIT-1BL remote control. It only took me a few minutes to set and operate the control. They both work perfectly....
My only beef is when I chose the shipping and handling to arrive in 2 days. Aspdoor and A Whole lot more charge me $11.23, I was expecting UPS or FedEX but to my surprise it was sent to me by the USPS (Prority Service)... I Like the USPS. But I know that the USPS will charge you only $2.95 for this service and will even give you the Free envelope for the tow remote and come pick up the item for Free.... MY only problem is that I was overcharge for the shipping and handling of this product.
Customer Review: Came with a dead battery.
Summary: 3 Stars
When a neighbor of mine paid more then 30 for his remote at a local hardware store, i knew amazon would give the better deal. Sure enough i found this one for less the $20. As soon as it came i was baffled on why it wouldn't work so when i opened it i saw that it had a battery. So after many attempts i gave in and went out in town and bought the battery. Unlike the old remote where it took the tiny version of a AA, this one took a 2032 and i had to remove the case to get to it, the whole time i was thinking all this B.S. for a remote. It works now flawlessly but it would of been nice if they but a charged battery.Customer Review: Works great, easy to setup
Summary: 5 Stars
This opener has worked great for everyone at my house; we've bought 5 of these and used them for a couple of years each. They only take a couple of seconds to sync with the door opener, and then are good to go. All batteries are still working 3 years in.
Only problem I had is that I think there's a limit of 7 intellicode remotes per opener, not a limit of this remote, but of the system itself. If you get this and have any problems with one of your other remotes not working after setting this one up, you can re-set the opener and de-authorize any remotes no longer in use.
Customer Review: Hard to Replace Battery
Summary: 4 Stars
This remote worked with the garage door opener once I figured out how to sync it. It is easy do sync if refer to instructional videos on YouTube.
This replacement remote uses a disc battery rather that a cylindrical one like the original remote. It is difficult to remove and replace the battery. There is no real hatch or positive/negative markings. I think I damaged the remote trying to replace the battery, because it never worked again, even after re-syncing it.
Get the [ASIN:B0018AZK60 Genie GICT390-1BL One-Button Remote Control with Intellicode] instead.
Customer Review: Good enough
Summary: 4 Stars
This remote control worked the first time I programmed the receiver for it. It worked with a bit of delay but not enough to complain about. The included coin cell battery CR2032 went dead after a few uses and had to be replaced. Replacement was difficult in that the metal clip must be removed to allow access to the Philips screw which holds the case together. Even though the case looks the same as the older model, the circuit board is different. After the battery was replaced, the remote worked again. For the price, I consider this satisfactory.
