CT10 Sensors

Do not buy the CT sensors they don’t work properly and Garmin have taken 6 months to reply after sending them numerous emails for support. 
they are awesome when they work, however I’ve changed batteries 4 times now and repaired each device and they are not reliable. 
Garmin please send me another set and I will happily try again or refund my money.

    Apologies on any miscommunication that may have resulted in your contact with Garmin Support. I have reached out via direct message for some additional info regarding the concern mentioned above.

    SOLVED!!!!!!!
    The same thing happened to me and this is how I solved it
    1) Open de CT10 by removing the black cap
    2) Remove the battery and test it if you have a voltage meter
    3) with the point of a blade knife very carefully bend inwards a little bit the copper contacts on the side and upwards the plated contact in the middle
    4) put back the battery (or a new one if depleted) with the + polarity up
    5) reassemble the cap and try it

    In my case the two non working CT10 came back to life. To me, it is a design flaw wich makes a faulty contact between the battery and the device

    We would not recommend users self repair, as this may risk damaging the sensor. Reaching out to Garmin Support directly will allow an expert to discuss the concern through a series of steps to determine the cause of the issue. 

    There is not a design flaw in the sensors causing them to make faulty contact with the battery. The steps above are not suggested to be performed by Garmin.

    I realised that my batteries often went flat as i regularily removed my putter from the golf bag,  so its either sitting up against a wall, or in the back seat of the car.  Since i changed that habit,  my batteries dont go flat.   LIke i take off the CT10 if i go do putting practice

    the CT10 is on whenever it detects light.
