Wanted - Wahoo Tickr V-2 battery cover
Quote | Reply
One of the 3 plastic bits that holds the battery cover on my Wahoo Tickr heart rate transmitter just failed. Without all three engaging the cover isn't held in firmly enough to cause a complete circuit of the coin cell. Might one of you have a dead Tickr on hand that still has an intact battery cover? This is the newer 3 prong style rather than the older 2 prong style. I'd be glad to pay you to send it to me. Wahoo in its infinite wisdom doesn't offer these by themselves despite them being a known week spot in the design.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

In case you didn't find one, you can 3d print a replacement:

Thanks! I ordered 5 on Friday using that code and the "Print a Thing" company. They already shipped this afternoon. I just hope they're strong enough. The design is really weak compared to any other battery case cover I've used over the past 50 years.

I think you'll be fine. Parameters can be tweaked to make the print stronger. You'll probably be able to sell the 4 extra you have in the future :)
