Dropouts continue with new doors (and new batteries)

I believe I am still getting dropouts on almost every ride with the vector 3. This occurs less on the turbo (kickR). My battery life is also poor - around 40-50hr each set, I am using LR44 (Varta).
I do not have the pedals connected to GCM. Right sensor missing is less frequent since changing the doors, as is the apparently spurious low battery warning, still getting the odd spike too but less impressive. Low ambient temperature is not the reason ( we have been having a summer heatwave for once) Can I send in some fit files for analysis? I have followed all of the instructions from the service document. Andy

    I think that the best solution for now is use CR1/3N batteries. I have been using these for the last 10 rides without problems.


    ok, i'll try with them. any specific brand?

    Hi,

    Did you try to use CR1/3N batteries ?

    If Yes did it solves drops out ?

    My last indoor workout.

    The battery starts at 2.89V and ends at 2.85V.

    A drop happened. I'm very disappointed with my vectors. 

    A lot of battery sets wasted and always having problems like that.

    Are the drop outs with  1/3N batteries? My pedals have been flawless since using this battery type.  Specifically I  use the Duracell branded battery.

    Any official statement update from Vector Team on the use of CR1/3N batteries with V3 after the latest 3.80?
