I assume there was some reason you didn't just remove the beeper? Or put a switch inline with it so you could turn it off?


I did that on a base model APC UPS that would beep when the power was interrupted, even briefly. I didn't care to know, I just wanted it to work quietly so I de-soldered the beeper, problem solved.


Oven timers aren’t much use if they can’t beep. And the inline switch is probably more trouble than what they came up with.


Just set an alarm on your phone.
