I have a wireless portable sound system call a Paso 500 (http://
www.pasosound.com/wpcs50.shtml). Its a great unit but it has an auto battery cut off when the battery starts going flat. Sounds ok but it really can cut out waaaaay before its due time. The same battery it cuts out will play on another brand's unit perfectly. My question is, can I remove this function and or can I adjust the cut off threshold for it. Thanks, Andy |

Probably to keep it on frequency, etc. That another brand works to a lower voltage is neither here or there. -- *Vegetarians taste great* Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |

None the less I would love to know how to by pass it. It really isnt a good feature. It can cut off after 40 min. Any help would be great. Andy |

Andy Is it possible that you are using low quality or unsuitable batteries? Ron(UK) |

The main problem is it really comes underpowered, it comes with a non standard size 2.5AH batt. I have spares and can easily replace it when it cuts out but I am a performer and if it cuts out mid song, my show really goes to ****. Can anyone tell me if its possible to by-pass this cut off feature and how to do it? I have ask the company for a technician repair manual but they refused. Any help please. Andy |

Well I use radio mics for a living and I always replace the batteries before they fail. You get to know how long they last. It sounds like this battery is running a power amp so the life will vary with load. So replace it for the worse condition. I'd say it's likely they have a very good reason for this auto cutoff at this battery voltage. You can't just magic that reason away. If the life isn't long enough use a larger external battery. -- *If you don't pay your exorcist you get repossessed.* Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |
