Re: Power Cycling Franklin T9 Hotspot
I used to run into the charging issue as well, where I'd lose connection once every two weeks until I went out an restarted the hotspot. This was a pretty tedious and annoying problem, since I live 45 minutes to 1 hour away from where my instruments are running on the hotspot. I figured I could trick the hotspot into complying if I just discharged the battery every so often. Fortunately, you can buy a $5-$10 mechanical plug timer on amazon (or at your local hardware store) that'll fix the issue. I set mine to charge and discharge every 30 minutes, and haven't had any issues in the past month. Not sure what the long-term impact to the battery might be, but I'm hoping the short 30-minute bursts will prevent it from overheating. Might be better to use longer time periodsand fewer cycles, but I guess we'll find out eventually. https://www.amazon.com/Century-Indoor-24-Hour-Mechanical-Outlet/dp/B01LPSGBZS/ref=asc_df_B01LPSGBZS/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=167139094796&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=1223849933702091469&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9028825&hvtargid=pla-307469470485&psc=110Visto0likes0Comentarios
