I got a new Bolt Fingerprint lock in the spring and installed disposable batteries in it mid April when I installed it. I’m just starting to get low battery notifications now, 7 months later, which is far better than I was getting on Yale which was draining the batteries every 2 months so kudos to that.
My question is, I’ve been getting the low battery push notifications now for about 2 weeks but when I check the mobile app it shows the battery as being at medium strength. In the Apple HomeKit app, the battery is around 28%-30%. So, I just keep ignoring the warning as it seems to have quite a bit of charge left and the lock is functioning just fine. I have batteries ready when it actually dies.
What’s everyone’s experience in how long the batteries last with brand name disposable batteries? The notifications seems to be pretty premature to me, was wondering if there was a way to extend the notifications to be at a lower level?
