Btw, there’s no key on the lock you linked on Amazon. That seems like a really bad idea when someone forgets to change the battery.
9volt battery contacts at bottom for this scenario.
I have a Baldwin ZigBee lock that I’ve replaced the batteries in once over the past year. Besides the C4 alerts, there is a noticeable motor whine that accompanies failing batteries. Also, never use lithium ion as they tend to die with no warnings whatsoever.
Baldwin/Kwikset also have Zwave cards available so IF the system ever changes the lock can follow suit.
