Potter Amseco ODC-59A Overhead Door Switch

The switch worked great. I didnt mount it on the floor. I mounted it on the top of the door where it cant get hit or damaged. This is the switch that the security installer should have used in the first place.

Is working good price is good

they are exactly what I was looking for ,with the fair price

I expected this to be a complete unit. It does not contain the electronic part that attaches to the wall. I cant use it without the electronics. The electronic motherboard on the wall is larger than the one on my other contacts, and I have not found a way to order a replacement for that. Until I do it is dead in the water and useless.

Works fine

needed a sensor to report to Wemo when the garage door was open.

Bought these and replace a couple of the Ecolink Tilt Sensors (

I wasnt sure quite what to expect from this as a DIY project, but these worked out great. Theyre designed to be mounted on the floor, but after some testing with a multimeter, I determined that the orientation of the magnet to the sensor isnt all that important. As long as the magnet is within about 2 inches of the switch, the switch closes and I read a short on the lead wires. I went ahead and took the magnet off the steel angle-bracket it shipped with and just mounted the magnet directly to the top of my garage door. Then I wired the sensor side to the garage wall next to the magnet. With that wired into my security system, everything is now up and running and Im a happy camper! I cant think of anything bad to say about these. They did what I wanted them to do right out of the box.

This sensor works flawlessly with my MimoLITE z-wave control that Im using to monitor/operate my garage door opener. I especially like the fact that there are no batteries to replace.

Works like it should....better quality than the original ones that were installed. Easy to replace.
