Re: control outside lights with garage door remote?

["Bill Kearney" <wkearney99@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

It would depend on what the Sears unit can provide.  If it can provide a
'contact closure' then you could use an X10 module.  That'd take the wires
from the opener, attach to the X10 switch module and then send a powerline
signal to another X10 module for the lights.

But it really all depends on what that opener actually provides.  What
make/model is it?  Is there a webpage for it online?  Or, better yet, call
Sears and ask your specific question.
