ruggerdude Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Hi, Had a kwikset lock installed last week and it works fine in all ways including remote operation. My problem is that my batteries are living only 2 days before I get the battery warning LED. I've tried three different types of new batteries, and it just doesn't matter. Any ideas what I can do? Thanks!D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JP Rizal Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 sounds like the zigbee card is either trying to connect or communicate repeatedly. That would drain the battery quickly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruggerdude Posted June 9, 2015 Author Share Posted June 9, 2015 My guess as well. Any thoughts what would make it do this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JP Rizal Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 you mentioned it is operational via Control4 Remote. So that means its already connected. I'll check firmware update first and any programming involving the lock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyknight Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Stuck on update would be my first thought as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruggerdude Posted June 11, 2015 Author Share Posted June 11, 2015 Pulled the zigbee card out to see if it would drain without it, and it did. Kwikset was awesome, they sent me a new one and got it in a day. The one I got from Kwikset was a way newer version of the lock, everything about what they sent me was better then Control4's version - from instructions to hardware. So strange. Works perfect now, can't believe I waited this long to pull that trigger. Thanks for all your help! D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
