Title: 5 in 1 Battery issue..
Post by: Ravenbear on November 21, 2018, 03:06:11 PM

Thank for taking the time to read about my issue.
I have put brand new lithium batteries, I live in Maine so they are needed in the Winter..
The issue is that on my displays  shows low battery, I have even switched out the batteries and it still shows this.. It is transmitting and working fine other wise.
Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated..

Do you have it reporting out to MyAcurite? If so, what battery message are you getting in the app?

Glenn there's a glitch in the app I found even when the batteries are indeed low in the 5n1(access plash page, testing volts)the app will still show normal battery on MyAcurite.

OP.. if put new batts in the 5n1 and it still shows low batt after reconnection on the desplay I would reset your displays.

So with brand new batteries the display shows low batt right away?

Thanks for the response, I have been out of the country, so sorry it took me so long to respond.. I am using Energizer AA Lithium . I am glad you folks are responding. I have asked Accurite support 2 times and no response that was over 2 months ago.
