Can the batteries be replaced by the purchaser or do the sensors have to be returned to have batteries replaced?

I was under the impression that they were replaceable by user. They have Philips screws on them & a separation to open.

I've not had to replace any batteries but there is a cap on the sensor, and the manual does say that the batteries are "user replaceable".

I have not had to change the batters yet but it looks simple, unscrew a dime size cap and replace.

No, the user cannot replace the batteries. This company does have a user replace model. My batteries are still good after 3 years.

You can replace the batteries yourself, there is a screw off cap on one side of the sensor.

Sadly, you will need to purchase the transmitter piece. I believe that this is just the replacement batteries.

We haven't had to replace any batteries, but I would assume these are button-type batteries and would possibly be available a major retailers (Wal-Mart) or certainly at a battery specialty store such as Batteries Plus. Suggest Amazon is probably the best bet of the other responses

Yes, the batteries can be replaced. It takes 2 LR44G "button cell" batteries like the batteries that go in watches, ect. The unit has an auto shut-off so the batteries should last a good long time.

There is a chance they could use batteries. And when it comes to performance you should use new batteries per every use to guarantee optimal performance and avoid the chance of embarrassment. Read the return policy that require return in the original packaging and management descretion for allowing returns.

We change batteries probably once a month. Thats the only disappointing thing. Although they are supposed to be good for 3200 times, the motion sensors check you when you walk through the kitchen. I wish they would only come on when you were working at the countertop.

The two sensors not working likely have spent batteries. if you get a new P409S with four new sensors you can be sure all will have fresh cells and should work. The older two that are working are probly not to far from failing. Battery life is usually 3 years or so.

I'm not aware that they can be replaced without sending the unit back to the manufacturer. I'm also not aware that the lights would need to be replaced with non-commercial normal use.

The sensor assembly is not repairable only because the internal components can't be obtained. But the sensor as a complete assembly can be used as a direct replacement for a failed sensor assembly. Just shut off power to the entire unit, disconnect the wiring inside the dual lampholder that is connceted to the sensor assembly, unscrew the sensor assemblyand remove it then install the replacement sensor using a reverse of the removal procedure.

Gee, I'm sorry to hear of your problems. Mine came "ready to go" and I've yet to need to replace the batteries. If you received the wrong batteries for the unit, I suggest you contact Amazon. They are quick to resolve any problems I have ever had. Good luck.

My son's did the same thing. We replaced the batteries with no success. We had already pitched the packaging and the garbage has been picked up so we can't return it to TRU. However, I may go purchase a new one and put the bad one in the package and return it for a refund. However, I'm afraid the new one will have the same problem.

Assure that the batteries are faulty, not the charger. Then contact the seller and see if they will replace them.

I just changed the batteries on mine and they work fine. I have had them for about a year now.

Yes, they will need replacing some time, but I would expect 2 or 3 years service first. My units came with good quality rechargeable batteries. You would notice the units running out of battery power after 10 or so minutes when out of their stand if they needed to be replaced.

All the sensors have batteries included, they are lithium I think (cant remember) and are odd size ( much shorter than an aaa). My parents system is still going after several years so they are good ones!

Yes they can, but I will not recommend the brand. After 1 year and 3 months batteries died almost simultaneously for the four sensors. I open all of them and the batteries used inside are simple CR2450 type. They states that new sensor model will work only when car is moving but they did the same before, saying that batteries will last 5 years. When tried to contact them they answer me to buy new ones (sensors) from e-bay seller. That is mine experience- choice is yours!
