sup y'all
for powermeters on my bikes, I have two sets of dual-sided vector 2's. both sets were purchased late 2016 and have seen regular use but have been maintained well, with dozens of battery changes over the years.
about 8 weeks ago, one set on bike A read low battery. several days later, I changed the batteries to find that the left and right pedals would no longer connect to one another and thus read power. I switched the pods to the other side, got new batteries, nothing. contacted Garmin with the response that they no longer supported the 2's. total trash.
now, this morning I get a low battery note from the set of 2's I have on bike B. replace the batteries, same issue - pedals will no longer find one another (4 flashes per pod).
I have once again reached out to Garmin. has anyone else experienced this nonsense. absolutely maddening that a two expensive powermeters fail in the same way within 2 months of each other after 4 years of successful use.
