I have a much older version of this and inwont buy another bc Chamberlain forcing you in to a subscription model if you want any integration.

1) they've actively blocked homebridge to prevent being used with HomeKit
2) they stopped selling the HomeKit adapter/bridge for their existing Smart Openers
3) their retrofit transmitter/sensor also doesn't work with HomeKit

Pretty lame and short-sighted and lost any goodwill with me. I would've considered their smart camera if it worked with HomeKit/homebridge/anything else. But Will def avoid chamberlain family products in the future
$230 on Amazon and Lowe's with 1900 reviews 4.5 ⭐️
MyQ is awful. Completely incompatible with most home automation and previously functional back doors like Homebridge no longer work after an API change. I would stay away from Chamberlain altogether personally and wish I hadn't already owned one.

Yes... as long as the door is balanced correctly(easy to lift and close by hand)

I very recently replaced my chain drive Chamberlain with a belt drive similar to this one (B4655 on clearance at our local Costco), so I'll offer some insight if someone is looking at this kit.

I have an 8ft door, and the kit came with a 7ft rail. The extension for the kit was readily available at Home Depot for $60 and is required if you've got an 8ft door.

Since I was replacing a relatively new (2017) existing installation, I was easily able to reuse the existing hardware in the ceiling along with the low voltage lines used to connect the door sensors and wall button.

Since I was replacing a chain drive, I was not able to reuse the bracket fastening the rail to header, so a heads up that you may have to get creative with your header bracket. The new opener came with a header bracket which I installed in a similar location to the one I removed.

In my case just about everything else was plug and play. Took a couple hours, taking my time with one set of helping hands.

Battery backup is cool. Ours is 3/4HP and I could see a 1/2HP struggling with improperly set springs or a heavy door.

The sound difference from chain to belt is always amazing. It does make a huge difference.

Quote from FeistyMammoth1425 :
Personally I'd recommend against this for a 2 car garage door. I have this on a 1 car door and it feels like it's pushing it already.

That means your springs need to be adjusted. My 2 car door can be lifted with one finger. A 1/10 hp would be plenty.

Quote from SickDealz87 :
They're likely speaking of the extension rail for an 8' tall door. While shopping recently. I discovered most manufacturers only sell openers that accommodate 7' tall doors and you are forced to pay extra afterwards for an extension rail/chain or belt kit if you have 8' doors. Chamberlain does sell this kit and it's readily available anywhere online. Been there, done that!

The motor unit and rails are typically in 2 separate boxes. Maybe the box with the rails got lost in transit. If it didn't come with any rails I would return it to Costco.

Does this require the MyQ subscription to open from the app?

Yes. The weight of the door is mainly moved by the springs. The opener will slowly slide it open anyway. Think about when you pull the emergency handle and how easy the door moves.

0.5hp is plenty. And it'll be quieter

Agreed 100%
I paid more for a "smart" garage opener and they took away all the features, turned it into a basic opener, and bricked all the accessories.
Never getting another chamberlain

Yes but it depends on the weight and type of the door. I have this exact one on mine and it works fine

I have 2 similar ones. I can open/close and get notifications from the MyQ app and I don't have the subscription.

I've never seen the motor and rails packaged separately in 2 different boxes! Unless it's the extension kit which you have to buy separately that you are speaking of.
