Remote locking control

My remote locking control is draining batteries rapidly. I have measured the current and it is 3mA when no button is pressed. The battery capacity is 72mA hours so the battery is drained in 24 hours. It is probably irreparable so I shall need another one. Has anyone got one for sale? Tug

If no one here has one check out E-Bay. A chap called Phillip Heap in Cumbria repairs them for £12 and advertises on there.

It appears that the 'repair' is simply a refurbishment involving improvement of the switch contacts. The fault with mine is in the circuitry so a refurb wont hack it! Tug
