Subject: Cycleops Powertap showing very low or very high readings
Hi guys! I have a Cycleops Powertap Elite+ Rear Hub that's four years old and has recently started to givem e completely wrong power readings. Sometimes it can be all around 800W and then it can suddenly go to very low numbers. I tried calibrating it from my Garmin 810 and that seemed to work at first, but a few days later the problem came back and calibration didn't help anymore.

I have tried replacing the battery but the problem persisted. Do you have any recommendation for something I could try before sending it in for repair?

Thanks!
