Hello Jim Bowler, thank you for being a customer and for taking the time to review and share your feedback on the myQ Video Keypad and battery! We appreciate the time it took to setup and experience this product as well. We appreciate your feedback and will be shared with our team. Should you have any comments, concerns or questions feel free to email us at social@chamberlain.com. Thank you!
I was very excited to add this video keypad fo have multiple codes to access the garage. However just after 3 weeks the battery completely drained and I shut off all motion defection after the first day or two when I noticed the battery drain. I ordered a second battery to switch it out and that battery is already down to 77% after only a few days. This should be a huge priority to fix the battery glitch. Then I would give it 5 stars.
Pros: easy to install, WiFi Capable
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We are sorry you're having trouble with your myQVideo Keypad. Expected battery life depends on several factors including household activity, Wi-Fi signal strength, ambient temperature, and selected motion sensitivity settings. An example based on activity can be found below:
Quiet Household (fewer than 10 events per day): 3 months of battery life Typical Household (10-30 events per day): 2 months of battery life Busy Household (over 30 events per day): 1 month of battery life
Several ways to optimize your battery life include toggling your motion sensitivity to a lower setting and ensuring your Wi-Fi signal strength has a strong connection. If you need further assistance, please visit us at support.chamberlaingroup.com
It’s nice to have a swappable battery to minimize the time the camera is off line.
