Is it me or are the comments all complete spam? The top three all say the same thing, roughly, "well built / good build quality / impressed with build, etc".

Check my karma: It's not spam. It really is really well built. Should be: took them years to get it built, I bought into their kickstarter early. That said, I learned huge amounts about building hardware from their engineering blog, strongly recommend it.

Can anyone provide examples on how to use this? The FAQ and Blog have a ton of info on what it is and how to get it, but I don't see anything on why.

I use mine as a remote for a lot of things: My front gate, my parents front gate, and any other front gate (check your local laws before doing this). Controlling a lamp I have (works with any device I've tried that uses 433mhz) Backup remote for my TV (the Flipper infrared UI is kinda clunky but it works) Backing copies of NFC cards And most importantly, you can use it to turn the pages during a PowerPoint presentati…

How do you get the details of the remotes you're replacing with it? Scanning through frequencies? Don't they have "secrets" for the actual ACK that lets your in and garage doors rotate through codes do they not? Just curious.

There's a few tools for figuring out radio stuff. The first is super simple, it just scans through the frequencies and tells you which is the strongest. Most devices will put this in their manual but it's nice to not need to have to look it up. Once you know the frequency one option is to just take a raw sample at ____megahertz and play it back on demand. This doesn't work for some radio signals because they use roll…

Would it be hard to get my neighbor's garage door to respond ?

Probably not, but it depends on the garage door. I used to be able to open my neighbor's garage door with the remote for my own garage door. There's also the opensesame attack (replay attack, search for it). You can perform such with a YTS-0 (Yard Stick One). I still ordered a Flipper Zero. Its cute as hell, probably has a neat community, and its more portable than my PortaPack + HackRF or Proxmark + Blueshark.
