Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does the automatic chicken coop door controller work during a power outage?
A: Yes. The controller supports dual power modes — it can run on 100–240V mains power via the included adapter, or switch to a 4 × AA battery backup (not included) to keep your coop door operating during outages. Note: it is not recommended to have batteries installed while running on mains power to avoid potential battery leakage over time.
Q: How does the light sensor mode work?
A: When set to light sensor mode, the controller automatically detects ambient light levels. The door opens at dawn when natural light increases and closes at dusk as light fades — mimicking the natural cycle your flock is accustomed to, without any manual input needed each day.
Q: What animals is this coop door controller suitable for?
A: This controller is designed for chickens, ducks, and geese of all sizes, making it a versatile solution for a mixed poultry setup or a dedicated coop.
Q: What is the remote control range of this chicken door controller?
A: The included remote controls operate within a range of up to 50 metres. Signal range may be reduced by large physical obstacles between you and the controller, or by low remote control battery charge. The remote requires a 27A 12V battery (not included), which typically lasts approximately one year.
