Kinda, sorta fishing related. Garage LED lights

[Machine]

Yes, one is between two of the lights I'm replacing.

I am going to install 5 meter LED daylight white strips to my current fixtures and replace my ballasts with 120 volt to 12 volt transformers for the LED strips. It is going to set me back less than $20 per light replaced and take probably 20 minutes of my time per fixture.

Beware

Led puts out a " signal "

And it can burn out the rf board on the opener.

Make sure on this I have seen several openers ruined

Not questioning your post but I did an extensive search and found nothing on this on the net. I worded my searches several different ways and came up blank. I would appreciate a link to back up your post. I'm sure others here would also.

LEDs will not damage a garage door opener - BUT - they may interfere with the operation. Some power supplies for the LEDs (LEDs are 12 volt DC and you need a power converter or supply to change the 115 volt AC of the house to the required DC voltage) are electrically noisy. That is: They put out a broadband RF noise. If it is strong enough it may overpower the receiver in the opener so it may not "hear" the signal from your remote in your car.

Being a ham radio operator this has come up as LED lights have become more popular and some interfere with any receiver such as hams use. I have been slowly converting my whole home to LEDs and with each batch that I buy I test them by turning them on and listening to my radios one at a time. So far all I have bought and installed have been quiet, but other hams in my community have not been so lucky.

Not true

We have seen the receiver boards go bad.
