I bought a Kegland RAPT Pill (floating Wifi hydrometer like Tilt) in February and used it a few times, I really like it.
However on my last brew, it never reported in.
After the batch was complete, I removed it and plugged it into USB. The battery level was reported at 100%, and connected to Wifi.
I decided to recalibrate it, so I entered calibration mode. However, as soon as I unplug the USB cable, it goes dead. The Wifi disconnects, LED's all goes out.
It should stay on in access point mode for a few minutes so you can calibrate.
I tried charging the battery for a couple of days, but no difference. I tried a factory reset, but that didn't help either. I confirmed the battery polarity is correct.
I've emailed kegland for help, but wondering if anyone else has had something like this?
I'm assuming it must either be a defective battery, or the unit itself has some issue running from battery.
