I just charged my battery and it won't run unless I literally hold the dial on 10. If I let go, it doesn't work. Is this product worth replacing?

The first one I purchased was brand new and it worked great for about five years. When the battery wouldn't charge anymore I bought a new charger which didn't work either. I then bought a complete used system and it has never worked. Might be worth a try if you buy brand new. I didn't. Hope this helps.

We couldn't find a battery to replace it so we bought a new one. We love this product.

They seem to have an issue with the battery - we have 2 dogs, and the battery barely lasts long enough to trim their nails. But, I have to admit that they are able to handle the trimming better with using the Peticure than the old method with the clippers. So, to answer your question, I would say, "yes."

That just happened today on my phone (i have the Marbl). It went like that the whole day. I was like "WTF?" But then I did what S. Thompson said, which was taking out the battery and putting it back in, and it worked.

I purchased it on line a couple of years ago. I used it once, when the battery went dead I put it on the charger but it didn't charge or the charger is bad. It hasn't worked to this day. Does anybody know what is wrong with it! Please let me know.

I had that problem, too. I was told to take battery out for an hour or more, and then put it back in. It still didn't work. I returned the scale.

Do not leave it plugged in! I did and my battery is now dead. It turns out to be VERY expensive to change the battery b/c you must send it back to the manufacturer to do so. There are some good tips here on preserving the battery life that I really wish I had known beforehand. I'm currently trying to decide if it is worthwhile to replace the battery or not.http://1866uselady.com/show.php/en/online_store_2

Yes, mine didn't work at all and I even got a new battery and still no good, am about to return it.

Sorry to hear that!.. I thought it was very easy to install and my battery was fully charged and it worked fine. Make sure it's hooked to the battery correctly and the battery is charged. If not it might be defective :(

In my case the contact needle pivots for easy battery replacement. If yours does not pivot, try gently lifting the contact with a pair of tweezers just enough to remove the battery with a second pair of tweezers and replacing it with a fresh battery. Good Luck!

Same problem here, my battery seems however not to charge at all. Did you find a solution/problem?thanks!

I would immediately send it back. It has to be defective. My two batteries work just fine. They take the charge and hold it until you are ready to use them. Sorry to hear you had trouble. These are hi-tech units and I do suppose that they are a little temperamental.

I just tried mine, and it worked fine. Be sure that the button end of each battery is against the flat contact, not the spring contact, and that they are in securely. Spin them in their slot. That fixes a lot of problems. I spent 30 minutes yesterday, trying to fix a toy we had found. I put new batteries in, to no avail. I took the entire electronics apart, even soldering on jumpers to bypass the circuit board. Nothing. Finally, I put a meter on the output of the battery box. No output!. I spun the batteries in their seats, and Voila! Also, the button end of the battery holder goes in first. Be sure the button contact on the battery holder springs back when you push it in. That's really all that can go wrong with it. Good luck!

Are you experiencing that with your watch? If yes you should send it back to be replaced. The battery will last several days on one charge. Mine typically lasts 5 days.

I agree. Send it back. Mine has been perfect. Changed the battery once and it works great.

The one I bought worked perfectly and is still working and lasts all day. Contact Amazon they will exchange it for a good one. Their return policy is iron clad! Could ask Seidio.com also since I am just a customer like you.I am sure you checked that the battery does not have a protective tape over the contacts or battery upside down and all that. And that your phone/charger still charges the old battery to eliminate other problems from the confusion!I just checked the voltages on the four battery pins on mine with a dc voltmeter and with the contacts on your left the left one and each of the three to the right of it read just under 4 volts each. (Battery runs at 3.7 dc volts)Hope this helps. The one I bought worked perfectly and is still working and lasts all day. Contact Amazon they will exchange it for a good one.

We just had a similar incident with one of ours. we just let it run itself down till there was NO battery life left. I almost threw it out because I thought it was broken! I decided to charge it one more time to see if I could get it to work and it had reset itself and came on and worked properly. just let it go till it is dead dead dead and then try recharging it and see if that works

The same thing happed to me. I replace the batter (which wasn't cheap) and it worked for about a week then died. Not sure that it can be replaced.
