Bought a Pleo for a Friend :)

<< < (2/5) > >>

kat:
from looking at the pic i'd say that Sumio is on the left and the new guy is on the right (my left and right - not the dinos :P )

aibo7m3:
I tried reviving the battery by placing it back on the station every time the light turned green, but after a couple times it just stayed red for over an hour. Unfortunately now the battery runs for about 30 seconds then fails. The charger blinks red randomly when there's no battery on it, so I'm wondering whether it might be broken and/or hurting the battery. I do have another charging cord that I'll test out, but if the base is the issue, I have no idea how to fix it since I don't have another. (Also, if anyone would be willing to trade a new or repacked battery for a dead one plus money to cover the value difference or is just selling a new or repacked battery, please let me know!)

(I'll post the answer to the little guessing game later.)

InmemoryofRomeo:
I'll say Sumio on the right just because there's only two options lol.

I have oodles of green batteries, I'll try a few out and see if any work still. If I can find any working ones you are welcome to have it for the cost of postage but I fear it'll be pretty expensive from Australia.

aibo7m3:
Thank you for the offer! I'd likely be happy to buy a working green battery for the postage costs as long as it's under around $40, the cheapest price for a working battery I've been able to find elsewhere is $80+ (taking shipping into account). The only shipping requirement would be that it gets here by late August, so there's no real rush there and slow shipping is often more affordable. I do need to make sure the charger is actually working properly first though, is it normal for a green Ugobe charger to flash red occasionally when there's no battery on it? I do have a spare cable that I'll try out, but I can't keep it since it was accidently included with a Pleo I bought from RWM a couple years ago and she wants me to return it once she sends me some clothing for the Pleo.

InmemoryofRomeo:
I've got spare ones of those too :P I don't think the postage would be that much, probably around the $20 mark. I'll dig them all out today and put them to the test.

Edit: slowly cycling through them, they need a bit of TLC, got a couple that seem promising.
