Now That's Annoying!

We like putting bike computers on all of our bikes. We use the Schwinn 12 function models almost exclusively. They're cheap compared to most bike computers and do all the basic functions we want. We get them at Walmart and have never had a problem up to now. The one on right we've had for a couple of months. The one on the left is brand new. Notice that the display is almost blank? That's because it came with an almost dead battery! We noticed that it was a different color than the other one but thought they had just changed the design. Apparently it had been sitting at Walmart for a long time.

Of course this isn't a tragedy, it's just annoying. As is the thought of trying to return it to Walmart without a receipt. But we may have a spare battery for it at home.

OK, that's it. You can go back to more important things now that you've read this minor temper tantrum.

  1. Let's see now, who's fault is it that you don't have a receipt?

  2. Here's an update: Not only did I find the receipt when we got home but I found a spare battery that fit the bike computer. Problem solved.
