Discussion:
Losing Power

I have a SJIII-3219 that has brand new batteries but will act like it has run out of power after only moving 25 feet. Starts out at normal speeds and slows from there down to not moving and the motor clicking. Test the batteries 4 x 6v and they all have 5.8V.

Any ideas on what could be dragging it down?

Fact of the week
According to studies published in the English Journal of Medicine, the impact of daylight savings is revealed by a 24% increase in heart attacks on the Monday following the spring shift forward. When clocks move back in autumn, heart attacks drop by about 21%, suggesting that loss of sleep is an important driver.
