GameGolf Live Battery Dead - No Support

[skywaterbanjo]

I've been using GameGolf Live for 4 years and really enjoy the information I get from it.

My battery will no longer hold a charge.

I am concerned the company is going under.  They don't respond to messages, many of the pages of their website show error 404 and, when you go to purchase a unit, it takes you to Amazon.  Does anyone have any insights into what is going on?

 There is a thread somewhere here talking about replacing the battery in the unit.    Game Golf's customer service is definitely lacking.

You can replace it yourself. They’re not replaceable really.

Or get another unit.

I’ll message the CEO. See what he has to say.

It involved buying the right battery on the internet and soldering it in yourself, IIRC. Doesn't sound too difficult but not something you can do without the proper tools and skillset.

I found a direct replacement and have removed the old one.  I'll give it a try - nothing to lose.  Replacement battery was $5.  New unit is $75.
