If the problem follows the battery, replace the battery.

If the problem goes away, note which unit has the suspect battery, an monitor that unit to see if the problem comes back. If it does, replace the battery.

If the problem stays with the LabQuest unit, try updating the LabQuest software. This may help even if you are currently running the latest version.
