Review: Works like a champ - Looked different the original sensor but it was easy to install and works like a champ. Review: Works well great - *Edit 1/10/2016* Has worked flawlessly. Has never failed to close due to light, cold or heat. I am very satisfied with the quality. *EDIT 8/5/2015* If I had read the directions I would have seen that the tabs bend with pliers. Now 5 star rating. The sensors can deal with a large amount of direct or indirect sunlight without any problems. I don't know why I didn't look for sensors sooner. I am very happy with this purchase. If you suspect dying sensors or problems with sunlight I would recommend trying these. *END EDIT* Works well with my opener, M-Line 4500. The old sensors would get blinded by the sun and not close unless I blocked the sunlight. The reason I knocked off one star is because they way the sensors attach to the mount is not as secure as I would think they should be. If I just touch it the sensor will swing like a door on its hinge. The mount is secure on the wall and steady, its just the sensor unit that moves. I used some tape to hold it in place, minor inconvenience but I don't like the idea that a bump could potentially knock the sensor off and break it. ## Features - For use on all Marantec garage door openers that are currently equipped with safety sensors. - Compatible with models and part numbers M-4500, M-4700, Q-7500, Q-7700, Q-7900, M-Line, Q-Line, WO-153228, ML-705NL, M4-705, 8014506. - Includes sensors, brackets, and wire. - Also part number 116168 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00FG66KRA | | Batteries Included? | No | | Batteries Required? | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #186,886 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #797 in Garage Door Keypads & Remotes | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (194) | | Date First Available | September 25, 2013 | | Installation Method | Screw In | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item Weight | 1.34 pounds | | Item model number | M4-705 | | Manufacturer | Marantec America Corp | | Package Dimensions | 7.01 x 5.39 x 3.03 inches | | Part Number | 86850 | ## Images ![MARANTEC Garage Door Openers 86850 Photo Eye System - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31kuwEEvA8L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works like a champ *by A***S on November 3, 2025* Looked different the original sensor but it was easy to install and works like a champ. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well great *by R***R on May 21, 2015* *Edit 1/10/2016* Has worked flawlessly.

This was my first ever electrical project and it was simple. The sensors connected flawlessly. I didn't even need to get them in perfect alignment for the garage door to open and close again properly. This saved me at least the $150 cost that one company I called wanted to repair it and probably the $250 I would have spent to go ahead and replace the whole unit with a new Chamberlain. My only complaint was that the directions didn't really tell me how to splice the wires from the old sensors to the new, but a simple Youtube video and some common sense was all I needed to figure that out. Additionally, having had the old eye sensors, this now fixes the problem I had earlier with the garage door not closing twice a day due to the sun hitting it in a particular angle at those times. If you've got the old sensors buy these and replace the old ones. They are so much better and worth it. ## Frequently Bought Together - MARANTEC Garage Door Openers 86850 Photo Eye System - 2 Garage Door Opener Remotes for Marantec Harrison Martin M3-2312 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/11918159-marantec-garage-door-openers-86850-photo-eye-system](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/11918159-marantec-garage-door-openers-86850-photo-eye-system) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
