Garage Door Opener - ADJUSTABLE LED LIGHT HACK 💡💡💡 

I do not have a garage, I enjoyed your video, I adore your sense of humor - I watched it right to the end, your one funny man. Montreal, Quebec

Thank you for this video! The short and rigid extender was unappealing to me, so I found a 6.6 FT E26 socket extender on Amazon that uses a cord instead of a metal conduit and hung my LED from the ceiling. Now I can see in the garage when the door opens! Thank you once again for sharing your innovative improvement.

I just did this upgrade using the light extension linked in your description. It was very simple and is a huge improvement. Thanks for posting this.

I remodeled my double-garage 6months ago and did this hack on both my 20 year old Sears Craftsman openers and WOW just lovin the output.

Awesome, I was literlly going to brighten up my mother-in-laws garage until I saw this. Never new this extension existed. Just ordered two. Thanks for the video.

Timing is everything! Last night I was thinking about splicing the wing light into the garage door circuit. GREAT vid, as entertaining as informative. Definitely subscribe.

Thank you so much for this inspirational video. After 3 years, my husband was finally inspired to change the broken lightbulb in our garage. We must coordinate future projects.

I also had no idea an extender existed. I ordered a 2-pack that's offered through your link. Thank you so much!

You are a genius. I was about to pay an electrician to wire me a fixture so I could put one those lights up. Thank You!!!

Thanks for posting. I just put two LED tri-lights in the back of the garage, replacing the floods. I'd like more light in the front and this gets rid of that pathetic corkscrew light! Perfect!!

Did it tonight on a craftsman belt drive, worked great! Good idea, much brighter now!

I'm a little late to the table, but watched your video the other day, ordered the components that day, package arrived today and I installed. This works great. Thank you for the video!

I didn't know that extension existed?!?!? I'm definitely adding that LED light to the garage door. I'm glad I came across your channel.

This is a genius idea. Gonna be installing my opener soon and i wanted a way to tie an existing led shop light to it so I didn't have to run another switch. Thanks for the great video.

This literally saved my life. Well done and simple. Thanks.

Wow, I never knew about that extension. Thanks for sharing!

Simple yet effective. Nice job

Pretty cool setup. I’m going to buy a couple for my work shop next week. Thank you

I got these lights last year but never thought about adding one to my GDO. Great idea.

Loved this and I have installed them in my garage. What a difference! Super video and I highly recommend this simple improvement to any garage. The only thing Im concerned about is that it does not interfere with the garage remote like some LEDS do. So far Ive had zero issues with interference but I have awesome light in the garage now.

I like your idea. I bought a set of two of those LED lights. I put one up in the middle of the garage ceiling and the other one has been sitting in the box. Now I can use both of them. 👍🏼😀

I did this with the gooseneck extension a year ago. Thanks for sharing it.

you got a great sense of humor. love it. Thanks for sharing

This guy is my favorite. Love him!!

Nice video and thanks for the information. I actually put one of these LED lights in my attic for more lighting after the HVAC service guy kept telling me that there wasn't enough light (our main unit is in the attic).

This may be the most useful, to the point, video I’ve ever watched. Keep it up!

Brilliant!!! just brilliant!! 💡

Great Hack. Ordered 2-packs of each item to do 2 garages. Thanks!

Because of your humor I have just subscribed!

Fantastic idea! Thanks!

This is pretty ingenious and simple. Thanks

I did this a few months ago but I had a plug that screwed into a socket. So had to use a plug in socket. Your way was much neater. Great minds think alike!😂👍

Timings of this video couldn't be more right for me. Thank You.

Just subbed for these awesome hacks you find. Thanks!

If one is that bright, two has to be sunscreen-required. This was excellent! I just ordered the stuff. I'll see how one does, and may order one for the second socket. Thank you very much!

Love this idea! Great job!

Bright idea!!! Thanks for sharing.

Saw this, I did it and man it worked like a charm.

Awesome garage light hack. Thanks for sharing.

I just bought one for my basement and let me tell you, they are bright. Very nice.

I put this lights in my shop , house garage, and pole barn I highly recommend these lights

Fantastic! Thank you.

Great idea! I was fortunate my boss let me have 4 4 feet fluorescent lights! Each had 4 bulbs already in them so I got a friend who happens to be a contractor to hook them up. Man they look so professional and my garage is so light up now. Had I not been so fortunate I would have done it your way. Great video

I have had two in my garage for about a year now,not the same brand but what a huge difference like daylight.

I use LED bulb on my Liftmaster that has yellow antenna and yellow learn button for almost two years now. So far, I don't have any issue for using LED bulb, my garage isn't bright enough whenever I get off my car. I'm excited to give this a shot!

Thanks for this and your humor. I would have lost it if you screamed when you grabbed the lightbulb pretending to get burned.

You are a stinking genius.

I just put a couple of the paddle style LED lights in the garage, in regular ceiling sockets, but they work off a wall switch. I like the idea of one dead center off the opener as well - then I'd have 3 and the garage with the white walls and ceiling could probly be seen from Mars LOL - great vid!

Helpful. Thanks!

Easy and simple but brilliant idea good job

Well what I did was use a screw in socket for the garage door opener that takes a regular 110 plug. I used a long extention cord reaching to the back of the garage then mounted 2 electrical work boxes with light fixtures. The bulbs were 60 watt (DAYLIGHT) LED's. So now when backing in the vehicle it's easier to see at night. The extention cord was good enough as I was going to use 14 guage romex but like I said, the heavy duty extention cord worked just fine.

As a garage installer, by profession, I must put out there that putting LED lights by your garage opener can sometimes interfere with the communication with your wireless remotes both in your vehicle and the exterior keypads. It is a great idea and may not effect ALL openers, but I personally have encountered the issue where the customer installed LED lights and immediately good remotes barely work outside of the garage. But KUDOS on the ingenuity.

Very nice and really helpful video. Thanks so much.

Wow!! Great idea. My wife will be thrilled when I complete this hack! I will subscribe and check out your other vids. Thanks bro

Did it, love it, thanks.

Awesome 👏 I should have thought of the whole flexible Gooseneck Light adjustable thang 🤔........But I didn’t 💁🏼‍♂️ THANK YOU 🙏

So ingenious 👍 thank you 😊

I did this in my garage but I used an adapter in the light socket to plug in an extension cord. I then used two four foot LED lights spaced out in the garage. It really lights it up.

Thank you. I am going to try this. Thanks.

Good job, just ordered a set of extensions, already had the bulbs.

Great Hack!

awesome thank you for sharing

I installed 6000k Barrina LED 48" light strips in the ceiling perimeter of my entire garage and connected them to my garage door opener! It's so bright I light up my drive way at night!

Great idea.

Nice hack 👍 Never seen those extensions, thanks for the link. On the way.

Clever. Nice presentation too.

Came here for something EXACTLY like this. The back of my garage is nice and bright, the front half sucks, precisely because of my garage door opener. :-)

That is dope dude!!!

Ordered and Sub.... great idea thanks

Moment I started watching this I thought, one of those adapters that screws into lightbulb socket, with an outlet plug. Then get one (or more) of those cheap, ceramic wall/ceiling mount hardwire lightbulb sockets. Then just take an old extension cord or one of those things you can useto replace the plug on an appliance if it breaks. Now you can mount the light where you want and it'll stay put.

Garage door tech here. You will have interference issues because of the radio frequency. This can also damage your circuit board and any tech worth their salt, will know this is the damage cause. That makes you have NO warranty and are back out the money of a new opener.

That gooseneck is great. I've never seen that before. Could possibly be used in other projects. Thank You for posting the video and links to the items.

had no idea those socket extensions were a thing, thanks!

doing this now! thanks for the idea

Your the man !

Liked and subscribed!

Awesome! I’m going to do it!

Great Video!! I've Been looking for One Of These for Our Drive Way We Need More Light To See When We Drive in At Night. But I Was Thinking More about Getting The Solar Power Ones for Areas Outside!!

Thaaaank you brother much needed hack

Awesome!

I’ve been looking for this solution for a year. Not for the garage opener , but my light socket is on the wall, not the ceiling. I had bought one of these led lights when you could only get them online, for my former garage ,and it lit up that garage great. That garage had finished walls , ceiling, and was painted. My current 50 year old garage , is more dungeon like and need some work.Warning on these fixtures, don’t look towards the light before you turn it on. I had no idea I was doing this until bought this light. It will cause short term blindness🤣😎

Good stuff!

Like it! The base is E26 just to let you know.

nice idea. thanks

Brilliant!

Thank you💯

Nice video thanks

dope video yo

Thank you so much

You rock this is outstanding ❤

Interesting, I found this light in my mothers Collections catalog

Nice … might add more lights lol … I already have some in my regular light fixtures lol

Do some experimenting with LED bulbs because they can screw up the signal of your garage door opener and sometimes it won't work when the lights are on. I had a problem with mine after installing LED bulbs in the opener. I had no range from the automotive button. I had to be right in front of the garage for the opener to work. Before with the old bulbs in the opener, the signal work work coming up the driveway.

I'm curious if this held up. My garage door opener says it will support up to a 100W bulb. The extender you used supports up to a 100W bulb. I currently have a similar problem, except the fixture is too close to the chain. I have a 4 panel bulb in there right now that is 1000W equivalent and pulls 145W. I was looking for a solution when I cam upon your video. I'm currently on the search for a similar gooseneck that can support a higher wattage.

U brought the feds or some pervs in the comments this video haha. Need to shed some LIGHT on a few of them😁🤣🤣

They sell these with motion sensors built in. I have one in the garage door opener circuit with motion. And two more that are switchable on the wall. Any movement in the garage and the light comes on. We love them!

Awesome

Super video! I applauded for $5.00 👏👏

I did that the day I got the first craftsman and think that was before youtube was invented LOL, I am about o do another hack on these types of garage led lights again
