Tapo Doorbell D210 Terrible Battery Life
Tapo Doorbell D210 Terrible Battery Life

Hi,
I recently bought the D210 doorbell and have found the battery life to be extremely poor. We fiddled with the sensitivity/recording settings to get to what we wanted, but the battery was draining about 1% an hour. To test, we turned the settings to the lowest we think we can do - Wake-up setting is only when the doorbell is pressed, Motion/Person/Pet/Vehicle detection all off. Charged to 100% yesterday at 3pm and it has already dropped to 85% in 21 hours. I'm not sure what else we can do to preserve battery, and even the settings now aren't what we want them to be on. I've followed the steps given as best I can, but with all detections turned off and only waking up when the doorbell is pressed, it's drained 15% when no one has even rang the doorbell?
We don't want to return it, but won't be keeping it if it needs to be charged every 10 days when on the lowest possible settings.

Hi Wayne,
Not yet is there a good link / email address I should use?
Latest update today. After putting the Archer V2100 back to factory defaults then just turning on OneMesh, I thought the D210 battery drain had improved, but I've since lost 4%, then 7%. I'm on for around another 7-8% today. The Asus router was <1% a day.
Regards
André
