Did anyone else still get a pop up to replace battery after installing this one? We calibrated and it worked for about 20 min then the pop up came.

I also did not get this pop-up. Sounds to me like you were unlucky and just got a bad battery.

No, the three times I have used these in three different laptops they functioned flawlessly without any warnings or alerts.

My battery purchase was problem free. I did not have to do any calibration for the computer battery.

I have had mine for several years, works great, probably time to get a new one. The battery level indicator seems to only appear when i have about a minute left, would really like a count down...minutes left or shots left.

I had the same problem, I changed the battery (It's a CR2032 'button' battery.... available online for about 40 cents each) Once I put a fresh battery in it was fine. That was just a week ago, so I'll see how it goes. If it acts up again I will move the pins to channel 2 or 3 (less crowded area). Keep me posted, Don

Hi, Make sure the battery door is full closed battery could be defective probably not the problem after installing the battery press the button for about 5 seconds to reset if unit was newly installed check the wiring to be sure it was hooked up correctly make sue if it is connected to other units their batteries are ok and lastly you could have a defective unit . Hope thiS has been of help JW

When I first put in the batteries, it did not work. I realized that I put the battery holder in the wrong way. Turned it around and it worked. Hope it's that simple!

Perhaps the battery has been moved, maybe during delivery it was banged a few times. It really is a simple to use device. If it's new I would suggest to return it and buy a new one.

The last time I changed a battery, I had a similar response. But, given time it recovered and is now working properly. Maybe it's a capacitance issue.

Hello there - Are both batteries new? Even one battery that is not fresh can prevent this item from functioning properly. Did you try to hold the "on" button to on for 10 seconds, as sometimes first time use will take longer to turn on? Please contact the seller directly for further assistance. Kind regards -Vert Delivery

I found all this quite reassuring . The display stays on and the logo in the bottom right hand corner continually flashes because i haven't downloaded the data. I'm still pleased with mine, but I would have thought todays technology would be able to provide a 'stand by' mode . 1st battery relaced after 3 months - because i thought the flashing logo was a low battery indicator ! - perhaps i'll update you in a few months !

Hmm, good question. I wonder if the connection to the battery is bad? Maybe it was connected for the first 14 hours and then got jarred loose somehow? I would probably take the battery out and put it back in, making sure that the contacts seem to be clean and touching. If that doesn't do anything, I would call a local battery store and see if they have any way of testing the battery to see if it is good. If there is nothing obvious wrong with the battery, I would probably call the company that installed the unit and see if they have any suggestions. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I've been pretty happy with mine. Quick readout but I couldn't figure out what type or how to replace the battery. Mine still is working. I bought it last November.

Once it's set, you're good to go. I installed mine well over a year ago. After unplugging to go out on the lake, I just replug it in when I return and it "remembers" the setting. I haven't had to replace a battery in two years.

Maybe the battery in it went bad. All of ours eventually did and I was forced to throw them all away. Tried new batteries but they wouldn't work either. We heard each one pop.

Did you put the battery in? The meter on mine quit working after a year or so but unless you record your mileages and times ii's no big deal at least to me. Otherwise call the company and request a new monitor

Paused, YES! I think it counts up because I remember deciding to make it count down. BTW I dropped the other day and it went blank. I was sure I busted it and I opened the battery compartment and reseated the battery and viola' it worked again! Quality product!!

Mine was defective. I purchased an identical one from Best Buy and it came on right away. Sounds like yours is defective too. I returned mine and received a refund no problem.

I really don't know if I can help. We didn't receive any message like that. I would take the battery out and check all the pins. Make sure it is going into place and locking on both sides. Hope that helps but sorry, just didn't get that message.
