Batteries change??

[honkytonkmn]

Hey all,

I haven't been on here for a long time. I've been using the Bloog for over a year now and I've never had an issue.

A few months ago I ordered a green battery and it was so weak I put it aside as defective and never bothered using it again. Well as time has gone on and my batteries were getting old and dying. I was down to 3 batteries and was afraid I'd run out so I bought 4 new ones. 2 Manual and 2 automatic.

The two automatic batteries I have are weak like the green one I bought months ago.

Did something change? I will pull off a fully charged battery load up a new cart and it feels like the battery is going dead. I have to prime it like 3 times to get a hit and it still feels weak. I'll plug in one of my working older batteries and I get a great hit.

Anyone having these problems with the new batteries. It doesn't seem to matter if its the sealed or non-sealed. I'm very disappointed.

Ok, so nobody has noticed a drop in performance with the batteries I take it.

So am I just getting all the duds?

Think you might be getting duds. Unfortunate and unlucky for you. I order multiple batteries for the convenience store I work at ( We sell Bloog ) and I test all the batteries before I put them up for sale. I do occasionally come across a dud. for example ... last batch I ordered 10, i think, And one was a dud.

Getting that many duds in a row however ... That sucks. Seems Unlikely but ...

I have had a few that DO work ... but seems like they need a primer puff to get going. ​

I've never had a dud. I have had a couple that perhaps didn't last as long as I think they should have, but no total duds. I'm sure if you call customer service they will help you out. They have always been very helpful.
