Lol. Both the pocket clock and the base station in the photos are spare Geordie .and will never be used in the fed . ;)

I would be interested to know if it would work if you put it together again. I was told the there is some part in side it that is light sensitive and if opened it would lose the working data held in it. That of course may be to stop us fitting batteries ourselves. :emoticon-0126-nerd: :emoticon-0126-nerd:

Not had mine changed in 15yrs

 

Hi

Have to ask Ian if you keep it powered up all the time

The reason I ask this question is in 2010 I purchased myself

a spare Unikon pro base station in case my club had a base station failure

It is know shown that the batteries need replaced

That is only 4 years

Cheers

I am convinced the batteries in the base station are rechargeable due to when switched on after the winter lying in a drawer "Batteries need replacing" warning came on however after clearing and switched on for 2 days I turned it off for 1 hour and switched back on. Result no warning message and working perfectly.

Sat and watched a base station being opened and fuse changed put back together and works perfect

Makes you wonder about opening them is just scaremongering (by Unikon)to keep us from repairing

them our selfs ..

You have 6 mouth after the warning to change battery as you only get one warning it to give you time to get it done

the warning comes on every time clock is switched on in this one m8 and stays on till you press ok button would have thought this warning will come on every time clock is switched on but you may be right ive got the book somewhere ill dig it out and see what it says could be it only warns a certain amount of times then goes dead so peter could be in trouble mines is only a spare and will get battery replaced
