I have the same problem. Rechargeable batteries have too low voltage. This item requires new batteries after their low consumption and exhaust batteries very quickly because flashing. In my opinion, this is a design error Answered on 23-7-2020 at 09:00

This is a very poor product with regards to power consumption - batteries don't last long at all. Something that uses this much power should have come with the facility to run off of mains power too. If you're thinking of buying one, don't, it'll cost you a fortune in batteries. Answered on 23-7-2020 at 11:12

I changed battery to a top of the range alkaline batteries but still light is flashing. I think this is a poor product. Answered on 6-2-2021 at 16:19

It's flashing cause you have low voltage on the batteries, which means they need replacement. Same happens if you use not the right type of batteries. for example rechargeable batteries, like me. To fix the flashing problem while using rechargeable batteries, unscrew all 4 outside screws and 2 inner, and just scratch off the 3 diodes with the same philips screwdriver, the blinking is gone, now your rechargeable battery pair will last as long as they should.

I note the dates when I change batteries - Duracell and they need changing every four months. Not a good purchase in my opinion... Answered on 19-7-2022 at 10:18

I took off the diodes as one mentioned before. It stopped syncing with the door bell. Otherwise it works with the buttons on the side Answered on 15-3-2023 at 18:45
