My peltors were working about 4 months ago. I used them at the range with my army unit and when I tried them on about a week ago they wouldn’t turn on. I am always very bad at turning them off after use. I replaced the batteries and nothing, do you have any ideas?
Hey, can you tell me what the symptoms of those broken Peltors were? I'm at a loss with mine, I've had them in my slightly dump basement for a while, took em upstairs, turned them on and they said "Power On, Low Battery" after which they turned off again. At first I figured it might be the battery, but after trying it a few more times with new batteries it still persists. Took them apart, cleaned them with contact cleaner but they still do the same thing 🙄 I'm at a loss..
I have the same problem, did you find a solution? I have two pairs that do the same thing. The only way to keep them on is by keeping the button pressed. As soon as I lift my finger it says low battery and turns off.
Sorry, I didnt get what dc-dc step up you used, the 3.3 V like in the headline? In the video it sounds like you take the 5V. My V on Vout is 1.5V that seems very low, so I guess thats why my peltor won't start up anymore. How do you get rid of the coating?
If my eyes don't fail me you definitely have a circular mark on pin one on both components, don’t you? The image wasn’t sometimes clear due the light reflection you get on the microscope. I was able to better see it when the component wasn’t perpendicular to the microscope optical axis. I really deserve new glasses otherwise…🤓
