Hi
Has anyone had issues with the Honeywell Voyager 1202g scanner regarding batteries and battery life?
Two of these scanners stopped working very nearly simultaneously, all lights worked on the scanner although no noises were heard when booting and shutting down the pc/scanners. The scanners appeared to be working fine but when the button was pressed to scan there was no laser light produced so no barcodes could be read. I tested a brand new scanner on the docks and hey presto the scanner worked fine! I therefore put the battery from the new scanner into one of the none working scanners which then came back to life. I then decided instead of using a new battery from the new scanner to switch the batteries in the two scanners producing no laser light. This worked! Now both scanners are back to life and working fine but I am not certain how long for? This leads me to my questions, has anyone had similar issues regarding batteries or battery life? These scanners are probably our most used and have been up and running for about 14 months but this still seems short for a battery. Secondly if anyone has had this issue have the sourced a battery? I have been scouring the internet for a replacement battery but so far no success has anyone else?

Regards
Matthew.

Thanks Stephen

Currently the switching of batteries seems to of worked but this will be useful for future reference.

Thanks
