Mighty Mule Single Button Gate Opener Remote (FM135) , Black

Works well! Love the small size.

We bought a Mighty Mule gate opener years ago and it ended up sitting in the box, in the basement for a decade. I nagged enough that the husband finally got around to installing it this summer. By then, the included remote would not work, nor would the key chain one we bought at the same time. We bought and installed new batteries, but still they didn't work. So finally, I ordered three of these Mighty Mule transmitters, as well as a post-mounted keypad. By golly, we finally can get in and out of this place! Unfortunately, during the winter when the temperatures got very cold, the opener would not function. After several calls to Mighty Mule about the problem (and having to pull the cotter pin and keep the gate open for weeks), the husband was given advice to hook up a second battery to the opener, that the cold temps were draining the opener's battery (even though we had bought a new one). Apparently, the cold was too much for it and it needed a second one to give it enough power to activate the gate opener. One day we put a heating pad on the battery to get things to work, and they did. Now, I'm not happy about that---why should you have to hook up an opener to two batteries? But, that's not this transmitter's fault. So yes, the remote transmitter is fine, but the idea that one needs to hook up the actual opener to two batteries during cold weather seems a little extreme. It's not like we live in Alaska---we're in Missouri.

I had my Mighty Mule remote gate opener clipped to my belt while weed eating the lawn, the clip broke off and I lost the remote. Never could find it. Over 6 months later, I found it laying in the garden area. This was right after the big winter storm that hit here in Texas in February, 2021. The ground was thawed out when I found it, with the remote having been buried under 5" of snow and ice for over a week. The temperatures during that time were below freezing, getting as low as 7 degrees. I took it into the house, took it apart and let it dry out. I checked the battery and it was of course dead so I replaced it. Put it all back together, installed a new battery and it works like it was brand new. Needless to say I am very impressed with the little remote. It went from 100 degree tempts in the summer to freezing tempts in the winter all while lying in our outdoor garden for over 6 months.

Easy and quick to set up for the existing Mighty Mule Gate Opener. The Man is pleased with his new one after having lost the original opener. The order came quickly and exactly matched the specs. Recommend for both the price and quality.

works good. I did not want to try a cheaper one to have it give me issues. This one works as it should, good range.

They are great much better than the new model

Works great and easy to pair with my gate

I needed a second remote for our gate, as my work SUV does not have Homelink. I ordered on Sunday night, and it arrived in less than 18 hours (impressive, as we live on a rural farm). To set, I took the original remote that I keep with our side by side, opened them both up (two small Phillips screws) and set the DIP switches on the new remote to match those on the original remote. That's all. Works great. I could have saved $10 by going with an off-brand, but I have years of good service with the original remote, and wanted to ensure I would have the same good service, which so far, I have with this Might Mule branded remote.

Llego rápido y me funciono

Worked as desired straight out of the delivery satchel. I pressed the button while the remote was still in it's vac formed package and the gate opened. Seriously, Mighty Mule should include a second remote as standard.

Works as advertised. Nice and small, fits in your pocket or key chain.

We have a large family, so I bought 5 of these so that all of our vehicles have easy access to the farm. They come ready to use, battery, visor clip, and all, and are preset to the original gate code, so they work immediately when setting up your gates. Once you customize your gate code, you have to change each gate opener to the new code, but it's an easy change.

Easy to program and works a treat. Delivery time not too bad based on current state!
