Sounds like the symptoms of a bad battery pack. Mine worked just fine for the first year or so that I had it, then the battery pack started to go and both my LXen started exhibiting that problem, if it had been only one I'd have thought it was the camera. It's funny but the winder still worked fine. (Someday I'll have to re-battery the power packs).
