The WS1 and WS1 Pro device can be powered both by AA alkaline batteries and rechargeable batteries. According to our test, the VARTA Industrial batteries perform well so they are recommended. Please note, when using rechargeable batteries, you need to charge them separately with battery charger.
The GS1 device is embedded with 3000 mAh lithium battery which can be recharged by type-C USB and DC 5V/12V charger.
Battery life can be affected by many factors.
The following example was tested with the default synchronisation time of 30 minutes and sampling time of 10 minutes settings. The WS1 and WS1 Pro are tested with VARTA industrial batteries.
Please note, stable network signal also helps saving power. The signal under which we tested was stable -60dbm.
Here are the different battery life of our products for your reference:
| Device type | Battery life |
| WS1 | 4-6 months |
| WS1 Pro WiFi only | 8-12 months |
| WS1 Pro 4G (sync via SIM only） | 1-2 months |
| GS1 – A | 4-6 months |
| GS1 – AL4G1RS(sync via SIM only) | 3-6 weeks |
| GS1 – AETH1RS (WiFi+RJ45) | 3-5 days |
| GS2 – EL | 8-12 months |
| GS2 – EL4G | 3-6 weeks |
The battery life changes accordingly with the synchronisation and the sampling frequencies.
The shorter the sync interval is, the shorter the battery life becomes, vice versa.
