Computer Mouse Garage Door Opener

at 5:41 am. Filed under Cool Gadgets, DIY Hacks, Electronic Hacks

Looks like there is another cool use for those old computer mice! If you want a remote that only a true gadget freak could understand, why not make a Computer Mouse Garage Door Opener.

“So I got bored tonight and started going though my box-o-cables and came across an old Apple bus mouse I had gutted years ago. I always wanted to turn it into a garage door opener but never got around to it. Well, coincidently the garage door opener for my apartment parking is the perfect size to sit inside the mouse with room for a switch.”
