I spent some time on Google looking for a soft start device made for 120V/1/2 horse power garage door openers. I found some devices not specifically for doors but motors in-general. I was hoping to find something that would plug into a standard duplex outlet and the door opener would then plug into that device. Anyone seen such a device?
I'm getting tired of the slam start and slam shut actions of my opener. Would it be somewhat easy to build my own device? I'm fairly good with electrical devices, soldering etc. I would guess a a device with 5 to 7 Amp capacity would probably be sufficient.
