Re: Does you H30 have any UI problem?
Just couldn't give up - tried again with the battery that never got any light at all - the short rechargeable after doing my 'fix' of shorting positive pole to the side and it worked fine. My conclusion is that something in the circuit is maintaining a small voltage that following a battery swap leads to start up problems. That's why some users report it's okay if it sits for a couple hours probably. This IMO is a faulty design of sorts that needs to be fixed. While it's not too difficult to fix with just a paperclip or similar (I used a Swiss tech tool - just fits right to do a quick 3 second short out) it's not something I'd want to have to do all the time when swapping batteries.
