Description

Testing the garage door operation using the Genie 6170H-B opener’s battery backup feature. Since there is currently no electrical power to the garage (underground service line still being completed), this confirms the battery backup functionality is working as intended. The third bay door is raised and operational, looking out at the snowy backyard.
