Hello, I bought two batteries last Oct. to test them. I just got around to use them this week and one did not work. Is that my problem ?

I hadn't tested mine either, until I got the e-mail. I just tested both and one works but the other does not. I switched the batteries around several time because I was afraid it might have been the collar. The battery does not, sorry to say.

I also bought two and used them right away. They both worked fine but I don't believe they lasted as long as the ones from the co. I purchased them because my old ones were dead and they only send twice a yr. I would by these again in a pinch because the others are very expensive, but in the end for how long they last I think it would equal out.

I used one and it lasted 4 months. The second battery I had, which was purchased at same time, was inserted in collar and has worked fine for two months so far. Maybe you just got an older battery with not as much life.

I would suggest contacting the seller. Sounds like it might be a bum battery.

I ordered one and it didn't work at all....so i replaced the battery (at my expense) and it still did not work. I sent the comment to the seller....no response. I wish i could tell you if it worked or not.....

Yes, exactly the same issue. I have not tried new batteries as the set I just put in was new and we only did one charge off of them. I agree that's pretty poor. If that's consistent, I think we'll return it for another one and see if the next is better.

I have been put some new aa batteries in, but it doesn't work. Maybe it is a defective.

Mine are still working, had them almost a full year. After about a year's worth of continuous use these type of batteries start to go south. If you've used them regularly enough this may be the case. Occasionally there are defective products however.

I just got mines a few days ago... bought new batteries and it's not working for me either.

I got two of these for my kids. One worked fine but the other didn't. I don't know if it was the charger or the battery. I returned it and got another one. That one has worked fine.

Exactly the same thing happened to me. If anyone knows of another brand or reseller that might actually sell good quality batteries it would be a good idea to hear from them.

Check and be sure you have the batteries in correctly and try different batteries also, I have bought new batteries that were no good before. I have had mine for 2 years and no problems

It might be a bad battery. The batteries on these things aren't the best. You should be able to pick up a new batery online for $40 or so.

Your batteries may not have been brand new. Otherwise the unit is defective. My unit has been working fine since I purchased it many months ago.

Make sure you have the battery positive on the tester. Also try other batteries. If not that you may have a bad tester.

Good question...SAME THING FOR ME!! Good thing I bought 2 new batteries when I bought charger. Maybe Amazon could get an answer for BOTH of us!!

Not sure, try replacing batteries? Also I found I have to test same battery twice or three times. Sometimes full batteries test discharged... never the other way around though:-)

I understand your problem, but as I have not had a similar experience, I can only theorize as to a solution. It sounds as though you may have a defective or worn out battery; like any other battery, this one may last only so long. If this is the case and there is a warranty on the battery, you may be able to obtain a replacement by contacting the manufacturer. It's either that or purchase a new battery. Sorry.

Must be some kind of bad connection. My product works fine and I've used all types of batteries. Even rechargable batteries work. Sorry
