I ordered and received mine today. They are locked and seem to be faulty. I can't unlock them. any ideas

I have to hit the locking mechanism against something hard because it is impossible to do by hand. It really makes me mad. I used a hammer on the locking mechanism once, just to get it off my olympic bar.

Mine were EXTREMELY hard to release at first, and are still much harder than the old Lockjaw Pros' were. They have loosened up some, but they definitely hold TIGHT. You don't need to worry about pushing the little black locking-tab, these new ones are designed to release without pushing it, just pull the release lever very hard, and they should release. Hopefully.

They are very (!very!) tough right at first if you lock them all the way until they snap over the catch. Just focus your force right on the tip of the lever (use leverage to your advantage) and they'll pop open. Don't worry about pushing too hard. They won't break. After a week of using them, the catch will soften up and become easier. Honestly though, don't lock them down until they catch. You really only need that if you're going to be dropping them using bumpers. For regular lifts, close them just snug to the outside of the catch, but don't snap over and lock them. In this configuration they are essentially the same as regular Lock-Jaws. They still won't move, trust me. I know it seems odd, as this is likely why you ordered this version, but I really don't find its needed for 90% of your lifts.

Steve from Lock-Jaw Barbell Collars here. Thank you very much for the feedback and support. A small percentage of our early version Elite barbell collars showed some issues of being too hard to unlock at first. This has been remedied, and all Lock-Jaw Barbell Collars have a 1-year warranty. Should you need a replacement set or have any specific questions, please contact sales@avusdesign.com for warranty details and instructions.

Love it. I feel more comfortable with this kind of locking device when I'm doing clean and jerks.

Mine are OK. Could you try to unlock them by pulling the levers a little harder? The levers are tough when new.

Very hard to unlock at first. Make sure you push the tab. Then lock/unlock them off the bar a few times

Push down on the black tab and then pull up on the open end HARD. Hold in one hand while pulling up with other. They are very stiff when new. A couple shots of WD-40 will help. Good luck

They can be hard to open the first few times around. I think it took me about 10 minutes. I think the little tab that you're supposed to press in is useless. I usually ion them without even trying to press it in. Pressing it in makes it harder to get a good grip on the big release tab.

I had the same problem, still under warranty, and the company refused to fix them. Do not send them back to B&O (who wanted $50 to fix mine). Go to a local electronics repair shop. I did that and had them fixed for $5.

I have the same problem. These are broken. We should warn people not to buy them. I just didn't bother to return mine.

I had the same problem,they are junk! I bought the fifty dollar version and that failed also.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, when I saw the rebate had gone I took them out of my cart and re-added them to try to get it back, but it didn't work. Is there any way to get it back?

see if the headphones are messed up . they should work, trust me mine work perfectly fine. you should have it fixed or looked at by someone that works at a place like radio shack.

This has never happened to mine.But I would unpair it and do a new pair up.Also you can try taking out the battery for a minute that should reset it. And try it again see if that helps.

There's definitely something wrong with these. I contacted amazon chat and they sent me replacements, but I'm sure if u tell amazon they are defective they will either refund u or exchange for a different one. I'm hoping so!

Yes did you contact support yet? I am usually the main seller for these. If you have not gotten this worked out please message Edland Distributing regarding the issue.

Mine stopped working altogether after 1 week. Count yourself lucky dude. They don't respond and don't refund or exchange.

Ok sorry I have had mine a while and works! I bought several items like this and used them through xmas! They all worked fine I would contact seller and ask for exchange or return? Sorry that's all I can do

You need to contact Amazon OR the vendor where you purchased them. That's what your solution is.

I've already opened my box, however mine are currently in poor shape. I'd recommend just buying them, if you wish to spend the money. Like I said, I've had mine for months now.

no I haven't, BUT my brand new one stopped working all together, dead as a door nail. Maybe somebody at EMJOI will see both our complains and give us new ones. They weren't exactly cheap right?

Send them back, they are worthless. I purchased the same thing and had all kinds of trouble with them. I am still waiting for the company to respond so that I can send them back without paying shipping charges. I ordered mine in January and still am holding on to them. Both of them are damaged. Good Luck!

Just checked and mine is no longer working either. I have them connected via cables to my pc so it's been a while since I used the bluetooth feature. Talk about disappointing. I can no longer recommend this company. I'm also having problems with my udac-2 which is luckily still under warranty.

The same thing happened to mine. I emailed the company and told them the problem, they sent out another one and the same thing happen again. They are suppose to be giving me a refund but didn't get it yet. I sent both headsets back. I believe they all have defects.
