Re: [FTC]: IR Beacon Problem

It is most likely a battery issue. Those are common signs of low/dead batteries. To check it you can use a camera or phone and aim the camera at the IR beacon. The camera/phone can see IR light and it will look like the IR bulbs are lightinh up. If you don't see this then try replacing the batteries. Best of luck!
