Is hardwiring satellites the answer to my woes?
I've installed a Savant home automation system that communicates with its remote control via the home's wifi network. The base system stays "awake" and thus quickly drains the battery on the remote....
Here's the latest... we tried option 1 which was:
1) Charge all 3 to 100%, lay next to each other overnight, and check battery levels in the morning. He's only used one of the remotes thus far and claims it dies 2-3 hours after being off the charger. We are going to confirm the other two behave the same. If only one dies then it's a faulty remote.
This morning, all three were at 100%. He laid them side by side and came back three hours later. The suspect remote had a dead battery and the other two were at 100%.
So -- looks like he has a faulty remote.
Thanks!
