Hi. I have an Aqara TVOC sensor that ran out of batteries and now I can't seem to get it working again. I've replaced the batteries but it doesn't come back to life. Is it possible to break the device by putting the batteries the wrong way?

Nothing happens when I push the button, not even the reset functionality.

Am I SOL with this device, or is there something I can do?

I think I've done that already, but I'll give it another go.

I don't know anything about your device, but would a factory reset be too much of a hassle?
