When mine did that it required a battery replacement. Got replacement from this site: https://batterysharks.com/. Also, maybe you should stop doing things that aren't absolutely necessary until you've taken a nap.
I would nap if the kids would actually nap lol. Is there a chance I can easily just disconnect the batteries and ignore the problem and still have it work on AC power?
My gut says it’s mad about a battery and this seems to jive:

Is the a chance I can disconnect the batteries and use the garage door like an older garage door? Doubt I'll ever need to use the battery backup function.
Not sure tbh. I don’t have one anything close to that model but I had a similar annoyance once.
From a brief read on that link I got the impression there were multiple battery modes and beep reasons. So I can’t really answer that but I hope you can but it probably depends on what it is and how it’s configured.
Edit: for example, it could possibly be beeping because it’s running on battery and not your normal power (2 min between beeps) or, or beeping just because a backup battery is low (30 seconds between beeps) on that particular page.
Every 30 seconds. But went and removed the battery -to stop the sound- and it's still running after plugging it back in lol. But I'll be buying 2 batteries from them for $51, and waiting until they're arrive. I guess it's a law in California to have a battery backup?
Curious if you couldn't just remove the batteries and not replace them altogether? I have a similar model and I know the replacement batteries are roughly $60. So replacing this regularly could become costly. 🤔
Would be a better option... cause I've never had the garage power go out in the 25y/o in the old garage door. Paying every 2 years for a feature I don't need seems crazy.
