UPS PICO HV3.0B+ Std -- Battery failed? #46

Open mikcatta opened 5 years ago

mikcatta commented 5 years ago

I thought I would test this unit again by pulling the power cable (to simulate power failure) and I was somewhat surprised that the whole unit died.

Upon re-powering the unit, I notice that the BAT LED is on constantly.

Running the pico_status.py script, gives me a Battery voltage of 0v. I have of course checked that the battery connector is firmly plugged in.

The PI is currently powered from the standard Pi mains-to-5v plugin adaptor.

What else can I try ?
