Why ? Well may you ask !!!! You did ask didn't you ?
Those lithium button batteries , 3V , like an old shilling , used for car key fobs & watches . I use them in a Snark clamp on guitar tuner ...I get a pack of two Energiser in ASDA but they won't work so I dig out a multi meter and they are showing 3.22V ....I put the old one back in & it comes on but dim ...I try the new ones again , no good , looking at the old one its an identical Energiser , remember getting it from ASDA ............. hang on ! No its not identical , its gourgetting well noticabley thinner so when inserted into device theres no contact between top & bottom .
I shall be remonstrating with Mr Walmart tomorrow.
I usually say my name is Kerching ...puts the fear of the Allmighty up them !!!
This is after a morning going to finish a door entry intercom which should have taken 1/2 hour but no ...it won't call the telephone , door release works fine , you can talk but only faintly . :C This seems par for the course these days .....take it out , down to wholesalers , gets technical on the phone , Ah Sorry about this , we get this every day , the wiring diagram is wrong , move the wire in No.7 to No.6 and all will be well . OK it was but you just don't need it do you ? Nail it to the wall ...wire it up ...test it ..it works..customer happy.....ride off into the sunset to the sound of the William Tell overture accompanied by your trusty Indian companion , Ranjit.
