Lenny, I've had similar experience on several fronts and often our answers are the most obvious but most over looked.

I think that I need a battery tester. A few weeks ago my Cobalt stopped working. This one is actually broke. I then took my backup that was repaired a year or so ago. Put in a brand new battery and it did not work. I then assumed that it was never correctly repaired so ordered another. When that one arrived I put in another new battery from the package and it did not work. It gave some off the wall numbers. I was planning on returning all three units. Two for repair and the two day old one back to Maxiaids since it did not work when I opened it. The other day at Sam's Club Karen purchased a pack of ten 9v batteries. I put one in the new unit and it works great. Today out of curiosity I put another new one in the backup and it works great. I never thought that a new pack of batteries would have two bad ones in the pack of two. The one that stopped working a few weeks ago was not fixed with a new battery. That unit will shortly be going across the big pond. --- Please visit my home page; it is motivational, inspirational and humorous with many resources for the blind. http://www.lennymchugh.com Lenny Please Copy and Paste into New Message to pass along.
