Can a Gate Motor Work Without a Battery?
Share
A gate motor without a battery is like a car without fuel—essentially non-functional. The battery plays a critical role in powering the motor, particularly during power outages. Here’s what you need to know:
The Role of the Battery
The battery stores energy to operate the gate motor, ensuring seamless functionality even when there's no electricity. Without it, the motor won’t work unless connected directly to an uninterrupted power source, which is impractical and unreliable.
