Got one of these, working great still on the original battery after 3 yrs. Does it give you a warning when before battery runs out?

Yes, when the battery is low, the top LED will flash when you enter the combination, I think maybe red.

I have had my Schlage less than a year, so I do not have the long term experience you are asking about. My neighbor has had his lock for 5 years and the battery is still working, but he, too, does not know how much longer the battery will last or if there are any warning signs that the battery is about to fail. . . . sorry . . .

The instruction booklet states there will be a lag time between entering your code & the door unlocking when the battery is getting low. That's supposed to be your sign to change the battery. I didn't see anything about a red flashing light, but I could have skipped over that. It's a pretty short manual, tho! lol

Unfortunately, I had to return this since it did not fit over the place of our previous lockset. Sorry.

Sounds faulty to me. It has been a while since I bought my replacement battery and cannot recall if I had to charge it prior to use. All I know is that mine works great. Never have had a problem.

It's been almost 10 months and the battery is still fine. It is supposed to false alarm when the battery needs to be replaced, in other words, the alarm will go off but there will be no leak.

We have 2 of these in our house. 1 is 6 years old and we have not had any problems with the battery yet.there is nothing in the manual about the battery.

I haven't had my battery die out yet, with that said it doesn't appear to have any manner to indicate a low battery. The instructions do no mention this either.

I don't know but mine lasted about a year - now everyday I get the message your battery is charging normally but it is failing. Lasts about 2 - 3 hrs now.

I bought the first one 2 years ago, so far the battery is working well. My brother charges it once a month and uses it every other day! Not yet need change the battery, but I guess when ist is gone, the only way is to replace to a new one, after all, it is only 20 dollers after sale.

I have used this Battery in lawn tractor mower for three years. Some time after a long cold winter it fails to start the mower and I have jumped started it with my car.I have planed to put a small charger on it, but I have no outlet under my porch where I keep it.

I've been pretty happy with mine. Quick readout but I couldn't figure out what type or how to replace the battery. Mine still is working. I bought it last November.

They do not, but reading through the other comments it seems that they replace it if it doesn't work. I have had this battery for a while and it still works great and lasts longer than my original one. Hope this helps.

I am not sure on that..I have never had any problems with mine. I have had one besides this one for about7-8 years and it still holds a long charge.

I works great! I think it may need a new battery now tho. It doesn't run as long as it used to a couple of years ago. Joe sends

I've had mine since April 2011 and have had no issues. Battery now pops right out if I ever did.

I've had the battery for about 10 months. Never had a problem with overheating. It works great and hold its charge longer than the original battery did when it was new.

Yes. There is a key for when the battery runs out. The batteries last for 3 years so keep the key in a safe place.

Mine completely died after less than 3 months. The seller will not return my attempts to contact them. My original battery lasted over a year. Replacing a $60 battery every 3 months is ridiculous.
