Palmscale 6.0

Mon, 10/15/2007 - 22:26 — Anonymous

I'm not at all happy with this scale so far. I bought my first one three days
ago.
I read the manual, set it up and left it to charge. After 15 secs the
light switched from red to green. The battery was still dead so I tried again
with the same result.
I just got home with a new one I exchanged at the store
and Im having the exact same problem: Charges for 15 seconds, works for 20
seconds, dies whilst displaying a low battery warning.
Is this a common
problem? Is there some magic button I'm forgetting to push?
I'd really love
some feedback on this because I'm considering just forgetting about the 6.0 and
going for an entirely different product. I went for the 6.0 because I need
quality and precision in a scale. To be honest my first impression of the
docking station was "cheap & flimsy", kinda like one of those cheap digital
alarm clocks.

The manufacturer has a swapout program for the docking stations. Just fill out
their form and they will send you a new one.

We've heard from one other
person that had the same issue last year and they sent her a new docking station
which solved it (see our archives)
