I’ve got a Sureflap cat flap operated by 4 AA batteries. It doesn’t work well on rechargeables, it seems to need 1.5v batteries.
I’m thinking to hardwire it with battery backup (like a Ups). I’m not very experienced in electronics, are there any off the shelf products I could use? I’m assuming the flap runs at 6v and that I can just attach two cables, one to plus, one to min.
If there are no off the shelve products, any recommendations for what I should buy?
Ours is it worth the hassle? Ours runs for a couple of years on standard alkaline batteries
Hmm good point. We just try to avoid non rechargable batteries. Will give it a try. Thanks.
