@Tim99 think brbeaird can join the alpha? Hes very knowledgeable and his older myq integration was really good.
let Brian decide if he wants to join the beta
side note: personally, I would like to see what Brian develops as an alternative to ESPhome. Choice is good!
Hi Brian (@brbeaird), you would be very welcome to join the testing team if you wish.
I am sure your experience would benefits us all.
Many Thanks Tim
Understandable… wasnt trying to step on toes lol.
Just got an email from Konnected today, and they’re now working on a small garage door opener unit that will connect to Chamberlin doors with 3 wires and be able to be used via SmartThings (and Hubitat and HomeAssist). Smart Garage Door Opener blaQ - A myQ alternative that's local, cloud-optional, and open source – Konnected
I’ll probably pick this up when it releases in March.
When I look at GitHub, the edge driver is described as obsolete between Myq and SmartThings. Is this true as of Feb 24 ?
What are the smart guys here doing for SmartThings automations now?
Yes, because of this.
There are a couple of alternatives. See the following thread:

Any update on the RatGDO diver?
The Ratgdo driver will be available in the next couple of weeks.
Many Thanks Tim
