Hi there,
as already described here I can not use the fob because of the “slim design” I have a quadraplegy and very limited hand functions.
To ease the use of the fob I constructed and printed a box for the (opened) fob and a second door opener for the house main door- the Fob is meant for opening my appartement door.
I added to push buttons and connect each button with one opener.
Someone elsse desribed something similar here.
I connected the push button with two wires and added an external coin cell holder to power the Fob. I used the same type of battery cell and everything worked fine.
BUT after only two days the battery was empty (although I already replaced the original (and empty) battery).
After I replaced the battery and after doing what the Fob was meant for, the battery was empty again after less than a week every time.
I replaced the battery twice and they both were empty again after a few days only.
I really have no idea why this happens!!
Does anyone have an idea what could be the problem for the Fob.
I can’t imagine a reason for this behaviour.
Perhaps s.o. can give me a hint what could be the reason!
BR,
hoping for an explanation…
