RE: Small garage door opener
I've got the one where I stop the bike, get off, go open up the garage door, and put the bike away. \\; Maybe not as fancy schmancy as the rest of you, but the battery's never quit on me (knock on wood.)

I just use the regular door opener that clips to a cage sun-visor. I just hang it on the clutch cable when it's not in the Road Glide's 'glove box'.

I have a regular one, it has a "clip" on it which I clipped onto the outside of my windshield bag. I put a piece of velcro on the bag and the opener just for a bit of added security. \\;\\\\\\; It works great for me.

 \\;\\\\\\;I got a 12 volt powered remote. \\;\\\\\\; I took the battery out, \\;\\\\\\;soldered in a jumper wire on the remotes switch terminals and soldered wires to the battery tabs in the remote, one to ground and one tapped into the high beam switch wire. \\;\\\\\\;This way you use the bikes battery to operate the remote, and you'll never have to \\;\\\\\\;replace the remotes battery again.

I just use the wife. \\; \\;She keeps the remote in her pocket, and I don't even have to flip my hi-beam switch. \\; Works great, but going this route is \\;FAR more expensive than anything anyone has mentioned so far. [sm=sigh.gif]
