Linear LLC, the leading supplier of electronic products for a host of residential and commercial applications, is pleased to announce immediate availability of its new Battery Backup Unit (BBU). The easy-to-mount BBU accessory complements Linear’s popular DCO800 DC-powered garage door operator, and gives dealers enhanced opportunities for add-on and retrofit sales.

The compact BBU mounts entirely inside the LDCO800 enclosure, maintaining the aesthetically-pleasing characteristics of the DC operator, while delivering peace of mind to homeowners when power failure conditions occur. In the absence of AC line power, the BBU will continue to deliver power to the LDCO800 for up to 24 hours, depending upon when the door is first operated after the power outage.
