About 2 years ago I built a weather station based on the Wimp Weather station documented by Nate. To his credit, Nate did a great job detailing the build and I was very successful in building mine and connecting it to my decades old weather instruments. My problem now is that my weather station has recently shutting down at around 2AM and then restarting again when the solar panel starts getting sunlight. To me this sounds like a battery problem as the temperature is about 46 degrees Fahrenheit. Also, the battery voltage is 3.26 volts when I get my last update. As I write this the weather station is up and running and the voltage is 3.35 volts.
So here are my questions; What is the expected lifespan of the PRT-13856 LiPo battery? My weather station is in the SF Bay area and doesn't experience any extreme weather. Has anybody else had to replace their battery this soon?
