Battery life for the Monitor
Details about the battery housed inside the Monitor casing.
The Monitor has a non-rechargeable battery housed inside the casing. It cannot be replaced as the device is fully sealed to protect against the harsh environments inside coolers and freezers.
Monitor will last 5 years in normal operation.
Here are some factors that may impact the battery life:
- Temperature: battery life is reduced when the Monitor is exposed to low temperatures. Even though Monitor was designed to operate for 5 years inside a cooler, a lower life should be expected for freezer applications. In ambient conditions, battery life is expected to increase.
- Broadcasting rate: battery consumption is dominated by Bluetooth advertising. If you are looking to extend the device’s usable life, try reducing the broadcasting frequency.
