Hi all.
I have a Maplin Aercus weather station and it seems to have stopped charging the batteries. I noticed the data was not picking up on indoor unit so changed the batteries for new rechargable ones and it lasted three days and did the same.
I don't want to go looking for a new weather station. Any advice please?

Re: Maplin Aercus not charging
Swapping the rechargeable batteries was the right first move. Did you check for dirty battery contacts? Is the solar panel dirty?
Otherwise I saw an ebay advert for a guy who does refurbishing - you could contact him
