SX 720HS Not Powering On...

[VengefulHemi]

Greetings All:
I brought a refurb sx 720hs directly from canon on 11/17. I used it a few times(approx 6 times). Used the camera the last time on 7/6/18 (working perfect). Drained the batteries for storage(did not leave batteries or sd card in before lengthy storage). Camera was kept on bookshelf in a climate controlled room until this past thursday when I charged all three batteries to a full charge. When I tried to power on the cam, it would not power on regardless of whichever fully charged battery I used. It is no longer under warranty, and I was hoping to have it for nascar this and next weekened. Any ideas or suggestions or fixes? Many thanks everyone. Don.

G'day mate
I am unsure about US refurb warranty details - those offered here in Oz still come with manufacturer's 1-year warranty [I presume that yours was sold by the Canon people].
Also- the ref to 11/17 is meaningless to anyone outside the US, although I can work out the other date

2- things here ... 1) maybe TCav might have some answers, and 2) I don't think you are going to use it this weekend ... that will be a bit of a bugga
