I believe I read something that Bill Cheek posted that it could be the
voltage regulator for the battery backup that will cause that, the
regulator is near impossible to find though.

Another thing you could check is the solder joints where the battery
wires solder to the board, if they are cold soldered then they could be
causing it to draw more power than it needs.

I have a Pro-2004 that seems to eat 9v back-up batteries.

Apparently the unit cannot be operated without a battery. Is this
true?

The manual says the battery should last 6-9 months, but the BATT
flickers on mine after about 3-4 weeks.

Anyone with a similar experience with the Pro-2004?
