Outdoor transmitter fell and no longer works
If there is no physical damage to the outdoor transmitter, the fall may not have caused
internal damage.
An outdoor transmitter that has fallen into a puddle or other standing water or snow may
have water damage.
Transmitters are water resistant, not waterproof.
A fall can shock the transmitter or the
batteries
in the transmitter.
Batteries that have fallen on a hard surface may be damaged and unable to function
properly.
Complete a
Restart
with fresh batteries.
Use
Batteries
dated at least six years in advance of the current year. Batteries dated earlier
than six years from now may still work, but may be unstable in performance.
Outdoor Transmitter Drains Batteries Quickly

batteries.
When the batteries fail, please note the date and voltage again. This is helpful in
determining the problem.

distance
and
resistance
between the transmitter and temperature station.
Transmitters at the end of the range may work while batteries are fresh but not after they

, which may damage the transmitter.
Battery life is over 24 months when using reputable battery brands for both Alkaline and
Lithium batteries.
