So did they get fried as I described?

Were the batteries properly charged?

Were the various setup numbers properly entered in EWUser.txt?

What exactly doesn't work?

No record?

No GPs record?

You need to very carefully read the full instructions(available from the EW website).

My EW is the biggest piece of dud I have ever had. Its been back 2 times to the manufacturer to be fixed and it still doesn't work! Wasted $1200 on it. It now sits in the junk pile.
Not real happy about that. 2 out of the 3 we purchased don't work.

Those of using EWMicrorecorders should be very careful to NEVER plug a FLARM connector into the EW by mistake.

The EW has built in reverse polarity protection but the FLARM cable by paralleling pins 1 and 2 and pins 7 and 8 on the connector defeats this.

Take care! Damage by this method constitutes misuse and is not covered by warranty. The damage is quite distinctive.
