Warning: I tried a wireless retrofit on a 1980s commercial panel in a Denver office building last month and it was a total nightmare. Hardwired is still king for those old beasts.

Ugh, that sounds rough. I saw a forum post where a guy spent more time fighting interference on a wireless retrofit than it would've taken to just run new wire. Sometimes the old way is just simpler.

My buddy tried to retrofit his garage door with a wireless kit last month. He spent a whole weekend resetting it because his neighbor's wifi kept killing the signal. Parkerrodriguez is right, sometimes you just gotta pull the new cable and be done with it.

But wireless saves so much time if it works right lol, no drilling or fishing wires through walls.
