What battery do I need for my HPX170 Remote Control?
I had battery for my HPX170 remote control, and after a year of use it died. So I just replaced it, used the same type of battery needed, CR2025, I bought two energizer CR2025 batteries, so I would have a backup. I put the first one in and nothing… I double checked the type of battery and everything and I couldn’t figure out why it didn’t work. So I tried the other battery. This one worked without a problem. I figured I had a defective battery. Only problem is, this battery only lasted for two days. Does anyone else with this camera know what kind of battery I should be using for this remote?
Before anyone makes a smart comment, I need the remote so I can run my teleprompter and the camera simultaneously without getting up.
Thanks for any help. -

The batteries you purchased could be bad. Have you tested them? What is their voltage?
If these batteries are good then maybe the remote is bad.
