Ratgdo v2.5 availability

Hello,

I’m curious if anyone has information on how soon the backordered ratgdo v2.5 devices will be available? I’m sure with the recent API changes by MyQ to block the HA integration that more people are going this route.

@PaulWieland - if you are reading this… thanks for all the hard work. I watched your interview on YouTube, impressive work!

Thanks in advance :slight_smile:

The order page says a 2-3 week lead time. Next week is week 3 for me, hopefully mine ships. But I’m not angry if it doesn’t. Excited to get my garage door back from being hostage to MyQ’s fart cloud

Mine was in the batch that was set to ship at the end of October (ordered late September). It shipped on November 2. So right on time. Well, 2 days late, but I’m counting it as on time–I’m guessing he’s absolutely inundated with orders since Chamberlain decided to be dicks about the API. Took me about 30 mins to get it all wired up, tested, and stuffed into the light cover. And then about 15 seconds more to delete the MyQ integration from HA.

Mine shipped yesterday and should arrive Thursday. It can’t get here fast enough. I’d like to make an install video to put on Rumble and set up bots that reply to MyQ social media posts with a link to the video. It’d be awesome to nuke MyQ with it, but on the same token I don’t want to give Paul or the RatGDO so much light that the product gets into some kind of legal or cease/desist situation

dont forget to disconnect your openers from wifi. just in case

Yup. Chamberlain will end up losing money from me due to their API stupidity. My car has a MyQ integration that actually works pretty well, and I was paying for an annual subscription. Now I’m cancelling that subscription and paying $$ for a ratgdo and a homelink device for my car. I’d rather spend more money and direct it elsewhere than give Chamberlain another cent.

OK - I didn’t order until Oct 30 and still no shipping notice. Good to know people are still getting theirs.

Ya I ordered around Oct 20th, mine showed up yesterday. Installed it today and working great. Mine is an older opener and using Security + 1.0 and the Ratgdo 2.5 added support for the Security + 1.0.

Ordered mine on 11/2.
Should ship any day now. Holliday season pushes things back a bit. https://paulwieland.github.io/ratgdo/order_status.html

Oh sweet … I didn’t know about this page. Marking this as the solution!

Just got my shipping notification, ordered on Oct 30th. Good stuff.

Just got my delivery notice. Ordered Oct 23rd. USPS reports it being in Jamaica NY, on its way to Stratford, Ontario.

Can’t wait!

Thanks for this link. I was wondering how long mine would take but November 6 orders are being kitted so it should be on its way shortly.

I’m curious how many have been ordered? Or in other words, how many customers has Chamberlain managed to piss off enough to NEVER buy their products nor recommend them ever again that they’d rather spend money on other solutions to eliminate their services for the rest of their lives! I’m definitely one of em!

Would it help if we gave the MyQ app 1-start reviews on the App Store to let Chamberlain know of our disapproval of this move?

I ordered 2 to just check them out and potentially replace my current zwave relay setup after hearing about the additional features that ratgdo provides. Ordered Oct 24th, receiving today Dec 7th.

Ordered mine Nov 21… order status page showing:

If your order date is not listed, it means your order shipped. Check your email for a notification from Shippo which will have your tracking number.

in transit means the production run is on it’s way to me. This duration has been varying due to the holiday season. Once received, orders will be kitted and shipped immediately.
