STINGER (GPT90-1) 390GED21V Genie Compatible DIP Switch Remote
Stinger GPT 90-1 for
Genie 12 DIPswitch
Compatible visor remote


Genie-Remotes.net carries a line of Stingers/Fireflies for the Genie brand of garage door openers (gdo), for the older DIPswitch programmed machines which have 12 DIPswitches ONLY and receive on 390 Mhz. If your machine has 9 DIPswitches on 390 Mhz, neither the Stinger nor the Firefly will work. If you machine is older than about 1988, it likely uses a frequency that is no longer supported, so there are NO remotes that will work with them, and your system requires the GIRUD or other external receiver to convert to the current frequency and secure technology. Call 888-519-2391 to confirm your needs.  

Stingers, but not a wasp nor a scorpion:
A support company makes  a variety of 'after market' remote controls to fill the gaps in factory remote control products. They make some called "Stinger"s, which are visor mount remotes. They also make  keychain size remotes called "Firefly"s, to cover the same brands and models of openers.


Garagedoorsupplyco.com carries Stinger/Firefly remotes to fit a wide number of different brands of opener, including: Genie, Liftmaster, MultiCode, Stanley,  Linear Delta 3, Allstar, Allstar Heddolf (trinary).  Call 888-346-3173 for help identifying which remote will work best for your machine.
