    Why is my BW Technologies Test Equipment beeping but not charging?
    • H
      Henry BradySep 9, 2025
      If you hear an audible beep but the device isn't charging, it could be due to: * The battery being above or below the operating temperature of 50oF-95oF (10oC-35oC). Allow approximately 60 minutes for the battery pack to adjust. * A severely depleted battery. Try charging it for 2-4 hours, or replace it with a new one.
