Title: backpack problem
Post by: birdymiller on September 22, 2008, 07:35:13 pm

Using my shurflo backpack today when all of a sudden it just cut out. Took it off and looked underneath it and the red light was flashing. So not knowing what was wrong i disconnected battery and reconnected it. It worked again for a minute and then cut out again. It is due for a charge so im sharging it tonight. Just wondered if any of you shurflo backpack users have had this problem. Ive only had it a month ::)

Just a low battery, it worth getting a spare just incase you forget to charge it.

Battery needs charging up,they do this also if there left in a cold place for a couple of days even if you`ve charged it previously.

This is 1st time it has died on me. I charged it last week and used it for about an hour on thurs, fri and monday then it died. But when i have charged it the night before it lasts all day. Well if i work a 7 hour day i use it for 3.5 hours cos i only use it on upstairs. Much prefer it to trolley and i have tried the trolley as a van mount but i didnt like that either.
