    Last night the CO2 sensor started beeping (about once a minute) while flashing the “fault” light.  The unit had previously been left “disabled” and not reporting, so the E27 did not report  any issues.  I physically removed the unit which is when I discovered that the AAA batteries were damaged.  One had expanded and split open so the battery slot was all corroded.  Its possible I got a bad battery, but I’ve never seen that occur before in a relatively new battery (less than a year old).  Has any one reported a similar experience?  Could a flaw in the power supply of the CO2 sensor cause the battery to be over-drawn, and maybe have been the source of the communications issues?  If you’d like to examine this one, I’d be happy to send it back.
