    Had a similar issue with my Chamberlin opener, one of two both installed at the same time. Original installer replaced the circuit board, adjusted the doors, etc and said might have to replace the entire opener. Had the owner of another door company recommend swapping the eyes/sensors to...

    On a Tight Budget? Consider Corded Tools.

    As a matter of fact just last week while swapping out a dead battery in my truck after work I pulled out my corded light to light up the engine bay.

    Is an air chisel a worthwhile purchase?

    I used one to get the lock lug nut off daughters Jeep that she lost/never received the key for. So I would say YES very worthwhile purchase. Lots of different uses for this device.
