I tried to save a little money and got a cheap Chinese knock off version of the Run-Chicken automatic coop door. Big mistake.

    That's true however I did end up getting the expensive version after this video and that one stopped working in less than 90 days. 🤷‍♂️

    I bought one of these too. It work for about 2 weeks and now It opens but don't want to close. Or opens half way. Doesn't have a timer like the original. Doesn't look like the Run Chicken brand when you get it. False advertising.

    I actually tried to set it up. The light sensor doesn't seem to work at all and the manual button only works intermittently. They also lied in the description and said it had features it doesn't. There is lots of coyotes around here and that plastic door doesn't stand a chance.

    It’s working fine for me. No problem at all. But not so safe for countries that’s got smart raccoon or similar animal predator. I just need to close the door to save my chickens from snake and giant rats . In which it’s fine .

    The higher quality one this appears to be a knock off of doesn't respond to change in light level until several minutes have passed, to avoid responding to transient causes like flashlight beams, a sudden cloud, or someone simply standing in front of it. Might be why you couldn't get it to do anything when you covered it with your finger. ... or it could just be trash

    They work fine with minor adjustment by taking a piece of banding material and bending slightly and drill two holes for mounting to put a little pressure on the gear so far 30.00 money well spent

    The one I got would open and close by pushing the button but the sensor never worked at all. The plastic material was a no go for me because I've got lots of coyotes and other things in my area.
