Fixing Sonos CR200 charging issues

kirill's picture

I have two Sonos CR200 (aka Control) units in use with my home Sonos system. I love them, no Android or iOS client can match comfort of those dedicated units.

Symptoms

Recently both of my CR200 started to act up, battery was always low even if they where left in the cradle for days in a row.

Reasons

Since my remotes are quite old I suspected battery first and order replacement but that did not help. After some research I discovered that contacts in CR200 charging cradle are gold plated and get worn down with time, decreasing contact conductivity.

Solution

You can get new cradle from Sonos or just replace stock 5v power supply with 6v unit. I used 6v 2A power supply. All remotes now charge happily, so far I see no adverse side effects, battery does not feel warmer then before.

Because of proprietary form, you will need to re-use connector from Sonos charger on your 6V power supply. Be careful with polarity, (+) is center.

So — been using this thing for something like five months now and it's basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I'd write something up since someone asked me last week. Am UK based, mainly stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, so take it how you like.

What got me on it was genuinely embarrassing — I couldn't ever figure out what an ew payout would be once you get five places instead of three. I'd just guess and then be surprised. These days I type the odds in first, every time, even the boring singles.

The single bet calculator tool is the one I use most — you drop in stake and odds and it shows returns straight away, fractions or decimals. There's also the fiddly ones — acca and treble maths, lucky 15s, a yankee, and that's where I'd always got it wrong. If you want a look, it's over at <a href=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/matched-betting>bet exchange calculator</a> and it's free with no account nonsense.

What genuinely changed how I bet were the more serious bits. The implied probability calculator which shows you the overround, and a kelly criterion tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutch tool is handy too if I'm splitting a race.

Couple of gripes. Its design looks a bit basic — zero polish, which honestly I don't mind but some will. On my phone it's fine although the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. There's no proper app, it's a website and that's it — doesn't bother me just flagging it.

So yeah. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. If you even now adds it up in their head, have a look — saves me a fair few "wait, that's it?" moments.
