AmyHol Posted July 2 Share Posted July 2 Hello! My omlet go up auto door just arrived today. I set it up on (reputable) batteries and got it working this afternoon. I just went outside to hook it up to the app and the battery is reading as 64% even though it was 100% just a few hours ago. I didn't even have the wifi connected, so I'm confused as to how it has drained so much battery so quickly. At this rate the batteries won't last 24hrs! I will check tomorrow, and am also looking into extension cords and waterproof boxes to make it possible to hook it up to mains outside, but is this short battery life a common thing? The website indicates I should get at least 2 months! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen S Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 Hi there, can I ask if you had any resolution to this problem as we have the exact issue- installed the auto door yesterday with brand new batteries and within a few hours down to 64% and this morning down to 25%!

AmyHol Posted Tuesday at 09:40 AM Author Share Posted Tuesday at 09:40 AM I noticed in the days following that the battery power actually increased - it ended up getting up to over 80% so I'm guessing there's some sort of issue with the battery level reader. I ended up running an extension cable so I don't have to worry about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
