Aurender W20's battery life and replacement cost

[bmichels]

I am proposed a 3 years old W20. My main fear is that the batteries will soon have to be replaced, and what is the cost (and the possibility) to replace them.

So... I wonder what is the expected battery life of the W20’s batteries and the replacement cost when it will be needed.

Also, is there a way to know the Battery’s condition (like a monitor/gauge/warning in the conductor app)


thanks for the advices

W20 is in production for quite a long time, never heared about any change out of batteries. (as far as I know)

bmichels.......I have gotten great response from Aurender support. If I were you, I would ask your questions there. support@aurender.com

Dear sir, I got this reassuring answer from Aurender support team :

«* The LiFePO4 has a very long charge/discharge cycle life time, which is about 2,000 times longer than Lithium Ion’s 300~500.
We calculated W20’s battery life when we designed it and it is more than 20 years with 8 hours of playing time everyday.

There is no monitor for it. If the batteries were failing, it would cause obvious problems.«*

So... apparently this is a non issue 😊

Thanks for suggesting to contact them

bmichels.......So there you go. If possible, it's always best to get answers directly from a manufacturer rather than fishing forums.

My personal opinion is the sweet spot in the Aurender music server lineup is the N10.
