Hello and advice on Beninca RF tranmitter problem

[JoeF]

Hi there I hope somebody in this forum can help me!

I have a Beninca 868mhz RF transmitter wired to the safety edge on my gate. It recently stopped working and gate company said it was because it was draining the 2xAA batteries. Gate company fitted a new Beninca 868 RF transmitter but it would not work at all, they tried 3 different ones! So now I have the old transmitter back on the gate and the gate is working fine, but I have to change the batteries every 3 days! Gate company suggest to try Beninca 869mhz transmitters instead.

Anybody any idea why the transmitter is draining the batteries, and why the replacement transmitters would not work at all?

What should I do next?

Thanks!

Hi,

have you checked for possible water ingress? are you using the correct batteries?
