Hello everyone, I just changed the battery in my Pro Timer 2.5. I charged the battery but it drains with in two days to half empty. Is there better batteries for the unit or a way to shut down the auto features to monitor current date and time??
Has any one else found that the battery life is short??
Are you asking about the Pro Timer (commercial version) or the Pro Timer FREE (do-it-yourself version)? You've posted this in the Pro Timer FREE forum.
Not sure of the difference?? This is something that I bought for timelapse photography.
If you have a lrt pro timer 2.5 the battery life will be around 20 hrs operating. If you turn it off, it should hold a couple of weeks.
There are two batteries, one for powering the timer (li ion) and one small button cell that is only for holding the date time (rtc). In the faq you can find how to exchange the button cell.
I did change then small round battery but not the large square one. Not sure where to get the large one to replace it? I think thats my problem.
The square one is the li ion battery that powers the toner. You should get it at Amazon or any electronics store,also online. Search for the model written on the battery.
TXs I will check it out on amazon.
