I bought some miscellaneous gear, and included was a UK D4. It's got some Energizer batteries with "best use by" date of 2004. They work just fine. To make a long story short, I've swapped in 2 different sets of energizers and a set of evereadys. None of the 3 sets work. At best, I can get the light to come on with 3 of the old batteries and one of the new ones. I've cleaned off the contacts, made sure everything comes together like it should, etc. Believe me, I'm totally prepared to accept that fact that I'm doing something wrong, but jeez I've changed one or two sets of batteries in my life without this kind of drama. Any suggestions?
