Tempest Battery Voltage Range?

If your Tempest is not running the right firmware version, it will continually drain the batteries in the PBA when you are not running it on AC power. Power Booster - Firmware Number? - #2 by eric says you need to be at firmware 165 (or higher) on the Tempest. Many units out there are at 156, not 165 or higher … and, at 156, if you are running the PBA on batteries only, you will see continual draining of the batteries.

If you are still at 156 (or some other version below that), open a support request to get it upgraded.
