Conclusions
- We installed a Mighty Mule dual gate opener.
- There are two batteries in parallel to prevent issues with not enough voltage/amperage for the system.
- There is too much shadow in the location where the gate is. We either need more solar or more Sun.
- No lights at this point. I still think a motion activated light would be a good idea.
