Quite troublesome that getting off the car to have your garage door opened when you re arriving home or close it when you re driving off.

It is an absolutely affordable wifi garage door opener that can be triggered to open or close the garage door through your smartphone instead of leaving your car.
One option we picked up was using the sonoff sv to try but as an alternative the moes version of the garage door opener is easy to install.
In addition to using the sonoff sv to open and close the door i used the gpio 14 pin on the board to add the door sensor to the sonoff sv.
