Hi Rosemary, I'm not sure if you read the discussion a couple of weeks ago about paring receivers. My experience is that even though it says it is paired and active, it may not be. I have found that the safest thing to do when I'm not sure if my receiver is paired and active is to remove paring and pair it again. So, it might not be your battery. Actually I've had very good luck with the battery and have never had to use the second one that Sendero provides.

However, I really didn't use the receiver since the PK's battery was low. I disconnected and I heard "bluetooth reciever not detected" before I disconnected. I charged the PK's battery last night, and since I hadn't used the Blue Logger battery, I didn't charge it again. This morning I went to connect and I couldn't get a connection. I know the receiver was paired and active. I just couldn't get anything besides "bluetooth receiver not detected". I used a light probe from Independent Living Aids to chec the status of the receiver, and it didn't change tones as it had yesterday. Should I just charge the battery every night, or is the battery faulty? I don't think the battery should be faulty because I haven't used it that much and I got it in around February or March of this year. Do batteries discharge overnight? How inconvenient! The battery's charging as I write. Perhaps I'll try acquiring satelites before I turn in for the night. Thanks for everyone's advice. Rosemary
