BIRDOG 3.0 is DEAD

[johnny5]

I have a Birdog 3.0 meter. I have not used it for about 6 months.
When I parked it, it was working perfect.
I turned it on the other day, and nothing. I plugged in the battery charger, and still nothing.
No signs of trying to come on.
Will the Birdog normally run with a dead battery if you plug in the charger?
Hope that it is nothing serious.
Thanks in advance.

Like any battery operated device, if you don't use it for a long time, it is recommended to disconnect the battery.

Yes, for long period of time not using , battery must be disconnected.
But still problem: battery decharge by itself. For ver 3 birdog charging
system with totally dead battery does not work. May be you need
replace battery. I recomended if meter not in use charge it at least
one time per month.
