    • In all cases, the battery went bad.
    • Too bad I couldnt find a suitable replacement battery for my old unit.

    • If you order one of these, be careful unpacking it in case you need to return it for a bad battery

    • You in turn burn out the battery - this is not for you to have wifi when theres no power.
