Preferred Technologies Group, maker of the Cartell gate openers and vehicle detection systems, is pleased to announce compatibility with any solar automatic gate opener. The GateMate (CP-3) has the lowest current draw in standby than any other free exit system on the market. It requires just 90-150 Microamps in standby. That’s 85-90% lower current draw than its closest competition.

A critical aspect of any solar-powered gate opener is the battery. The more accessories attached to a solar gate opener, the less power is available when it needs to open or close. The last thing a gate opener needs is an accessory that uses a significant amount of power when in standby, drawing current 24/7.
