+dhe Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 Sometimes I don't run my TI once every couple of weeks and the batteries in the horizon dies... Is it possible to hook up a little usb wall wart to provide a continuous charge to the batteries? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstimson Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 Perhaps the batteries have reached their end of life? It can be months between running my machine and my Horizon still boots fine from battery backed RAM. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was my thought, too, or batteries not reaching their full charging capacity (if rechargeable). There could also be a malfunctioning component in the circuit draining the batteries prematurely. Over the past year I've had my system off for 3-4 months at a time without any loss of data. The 3000 uses alkaline batteries (the AAs last about 2 years) and the 4000 uses rechargeable batteries. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
