L.R. Baggs X-Bridge: This one's for Tom!

[guitararmy]

Dear Tom,
The X-Bridge on my Cobra goes through batteries even though
it isn't plugged in and the volume is turned down.
Is this an easy fix for my local guitar tech or should I send it back to Anderson?
Thanks for the great guitar!!

cord unplugged, piezo volume down, and switch to mag only would be the best place to leave it. if you are doing that, how long between batteries?

Thanks for the quick reply! What's been happening is that
I"ll use the guitar for 15 minutes or so, put it away, and find
the battery dead the next time I check it. I don't play it that
much, so it may be several weeks between. Still, the battery
shouldn't die that quick, should it? I even tried a lithium 9V,
and it died too!

you're doing all the stuff in my previous post?

Dear Tom,
I've been doing the volume down, switch down, cord out thing
and still losing batteries. I figured the problem was in the
output jack somewhere...
