Crestron Battery issues

JerryDelColliano · 10-28-2007

My crestron touch panel seems to run out of juice pretty fast. I keep it charged in the dock but when I pull it off - it doesn't last more than a few hours.

Do you think this is a memory issue for the battery like in a cell phone.

I have also noted my hand held Crestron for my living room also EATS AAA batteries within about a month.

Anybody have any thoughts on this?

Are they rechargeable? If so, you can wear out....

If your hand held remote takes AAA batteries, buy some Nickel Metal Hydride batteries. I use them in my portable flash units and they last a long time and recharge quickly without developing a memory link the older Ni cad batteries do.

My handheld remote takes AAA batteries. Both the Crestron and the generic one EAT batteries but I still love them both.

The battery issue I am having is with my Touchpannel Crestron
