6k pro battery system

PostTue Apr 16, 2024 3:10 am

Just got two (2) of the 6k pro camera system unboxed...going through set up step by step...
No problems with a single battery.
Put on the additional 2 battery GRIP system -- thought for darn sure I powered everything up together over the weekend...went to use it today and...

NOTHING.
Power light goes on GREEN for about 10 seconds...then shuts down.

Will take all 3 batteries ( practically brand new) out and charge them separately tomorrow before putting them in again so i can download firmware updates.
Eventually get the V-mount but for now...my questions:

1) did I accidentally NOT power the system over the weekend correctly and maybe ket the power switch on?
2) Is this a bad GRIP?
3) is the GRIP solid but the two, new batteries crap?
4) Am i missing a step?

Thanks.
Got the manual; going through it...no troubleshooting section when it comes to batteries.

Again...

When I was checking out a few weeks ago with single battery?
No problems.
Thanks.
