Good old Harbor Freight has a panel and sells the electronics to make
?12V? - have to check the site. Might have a 120v a.c. driven from a
battery and an inverter. Likely need a charger from the panel.

Has anyone here done this or have more info?

Amazing # of answers that don't address my question.

From what I can find, many garage door openers use 12v or 24v motors
with a step down transformer. Bypassing that transformer seems the way
to go.

Much talk about how to construct a system that I've seen elsewhere,
nothing from any who have actually done it.

I don't see any reason why the concept is flawed, so why isn't there a
complete system on the market already? Maybe this is my road to vast
wealth?

OTOH, considering what I've paid for these gems of wisdom, what did I
expect?
