Abstract
A movable barrier operator remote controller can comprise a vibration-powered electrical generator, a user interface, and a wireless transmitter configured to transmit a movable barrier operator communication in response to the user interface and as powered, at least in part, by the vibration-powered electrical generator. The controller can further comprise an electrical-energy storage unit (such as a battery and/or a capacitor) that is coupled to an electric power output of the vibration-powered electrical generator to thereby receive and store electric power from the vibration-powered electrical generator. So configured, the electrical-energy storage unit can provide operating power to the wireless transmitter on an as-needed basis.
