I have been using Procells in wireless bodypack transmitters for a couple years, and have never had a problem. For a recent show, I ordered more as usual, but had a problem with several packs. Power to the pack would cut in and out, and they were very sensitive to touching "jiggling" the batteries. I tried wiping the battery ends (AA) with acetone, and this seemed to help, but not completely. The problem was seen on both in-house Shure QLXD packs as well as rented Sennheiser EW100 packs.
Looking through our used battery bin, I see differences over the last year with regard to the negative end of the battery. Some have a silver ring, some have a black ring, and these were green. Also, some ends have a dimple and some don't.
Has anyone else had an issue like this? Any ideas?
