This was posted a while ago and the type of battery that should be used.

yep that is the same service note referenced in the BWE Battery thread I linked...
isn't that where you found it??

Yes you are right about that being in what you posted. i never opened up what you posted but I did have the single battery info bookmarked from when it was posted a while ago. this way I didn't have to go through a bunch of pages to locate.

I was aware of the battery issue so i tried a new set of Panasonic batteries for it still no change ill try to take it down to the LWS and see what I can do for a warranty or what.

I almost did I thought it had a 3 year warranty and its only 2 years I almost threw it across the LWS and they they said that it wasn't a big deal and a new one is on its way.

I spoke with my local Miller rep, as I am impressed with the feature list of the DE. He was not aware of any of the issues discussed in this thread. I've known him for over 20 years so if there were any problems he would have told me, after all there are other hoods available to sell if that's all he wanted.

Perhaps some of you having all the difficulties, have some local and strong quantum fluctuations causing these issues.
