Did the cover for the battery stick wiggle on yours? Got mine brand new, want to know if this is typical be4 I get a replacement or choose another mdl

It did not wiggle but eventually did not seal so water got in and the camera was ruined.

I found that a bit disconcerting, since I owned three of the earlier models - and was almost afraid that it was going to come off in my hand. Been using it for going on two years and it has never caused a problem, though. You are right, it does FEEL weird!

Yes, it does, a little. And it seems when you are putting the battery cover back that this wiggle means it's not sealing properly. But I've used mine without problem, including using it in a pool. Haven't had a problem. Have stopped worrying about it.

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.

It's kind of weird. The battery cover is actually the top of the mouse itself, including the buttons. There is a release on the bottom and then the top comes off all in one piece. Overall, this mouse is garbage though. If you haven't already purchased it, I suggest looking at other alternatives. These do not last.

Mine was fine. I had no problems with it. Maybe you got one that had a defect.

Yes, I took it apart and found a new battery online. The tricky part was getting the rubber bumpers off so I could get all the screws out. BTW, the B&D people told me it couldn't be done.

We had the same issue but you need to make sure the battery cover is twisted clockwise until it pops into place.

the battery should click into place and stay in by itself. Sounds lile you received a faulty set and should request an exchange for a new one.

Just a guess: perhaps ps a piece of the plastic battery protector got hung up and is still preventing contact. Might also be a bad battery or just incomplete connection of the battery. Beyond that, not sure what is actually servicable by us.

mine also failed, though i eventually got it to work again by fiddling with the battery case. specifically i opened the battery slot, made sure it sat evenly in the case, then slotted it back in again. try pushing the case forward even if it looks like it already in. best of luck

Funny you should ask! I just got through changing the battery myself! You have to squeeze the two oval buttons on the side very hard and make sure the front and back face the right way. If you're very careful you should get one side button on slightly ahead of the other. Don't force it or it will break and you'll have to ducktape it back on!

I purchased a replacement battery and they have changed the battery posts - so it is not easy. I had to solder the new battery in place.The new battery has slip on posts and the old one was attached with a small screw and nut. Bah Humbug....

See if there is a plastic tab that is preventing he battery from making contact. If it has one you may have to pull it out. If it's not that then it's just because the unit is likely defective. It's a super cheaply made unit.

That is not normal, never happened on mine. Try and exchange it for another one asap.

Not sure why. I haven't had any issue with my unit (yet). You may have a defective Battery or Grip. Sorry...

Have had a problem with mine so checked batteries and reinstalled them. I noticed the directional arrow inside the battery pack was pointed the wrong way. The base of the battery, or negative end, should go against the spring. The arrows point to the opposite direction and it won't work this way. Now mine is working. I'm not sure yet if I have another problem not related to the batteries.
