How long does the battery last before you have to recharge the unit?

In summer, the battery lasts quite long, thanks to the small solar module on the device. In winter, however, the batteries are empty again after just one day. However, the batteries supplied are also not of very high quality, and if you replace them with better ones, the time until the next charge is 2-3 weeks.

I put the device on charge, but if at first the red light was intermittent, then it remained stable (light always red). Is the cable defective? The instructions speak of a yellow light, but the red light is not mentioned. How do I know if the device is ready for use? The instructions say it needs 8h of charging, but if the light goes from flickering, remains stable, or worse, goes out, how do I know at what point the battery is!

Also, does it have to be installed in full sun or if the location is only occasionally in the sun, is that OK?

Windhager's pet repellent can be installed in areas that receive occasional sunlight, but it doesn't have to be in direct sunlight all the time. The housing is weatherproof, which means it can withstand a variety of weather conditions, including sun and rain.

I don't understand, I installed it on Monday and it's already been discharged? Are the solar panels working? What is the autonomy?

I never had the impression that the solar cells noticeably charged the battery. This is rather negligible. The batteries supplied are also of poor quality. My own batteries lasted longer.

Won't putting my cat outside affect it inside?

Windhager's pet repellent is designed to repel animals outside without affecting animals inside. It generally uses ultrasound or specific odours that don't penetrate buildings, meaning your cat inside shouldn't be affected.

I have just received the product, but I cannot turn the sound off. Would you know how to do this? I only want to keep the light and the ultrasound.

According to the information found : APPLICATION Easy to use. The solar-powered defence device can be fixed in the ground with the supplied ground spike or suspended from the notch on the back of the device. The integrated infrared motion detector activates the ultrasound, the intensity of which can be adjusted by two rotary switches (ultrasound intensity and programme) in a frequency range of 17 to 23 kHz as required. The programmes [0-5] cover different operating modes from 0 inactive to 5 strong frequency intervals. We recommend that you observe the behaviour of your own pets on the ultrasonic repeller and reduce the intensity if necessary. The best results are obtained when the sound is free-flowing. Here is the response I got from the department responsible.
