So the battery was the right way up, it was the camera that was upside down?!

Now that the problem battery has been fixed,Orsolia can not be responsible for the battery problem,
it is only "fitting" that an reason is offered,being from down under,the battery was not fit for purpose,
the manufacturer should send the opposite handed battery when a camera is sent down under.
Jack.

Glad you have it sorted now. Go and enjoy Christmas and I really hope your health continues to improve.
My rehab has ended, and now I only have to continue with the exercises and the cycling.
I've already lost two trouser sizes, and my sleep has improved.

I certainly wouldn't try taking it onto a 'plane in that state.

Pleased Pentax got it sorted out for you OK. So are you using that battery with trimmings or did you have to get a new one?

It's just a thought, but if the technician removed your battery by knowing where to drill into it I wonder if he'd have been as keen to try if it had been a third party battery. I suspect probably not.

That's a good point.
Someone joked earlier about hammers and knowing where to hit which is precisely what happened

Anyway, here is a shot I took of the battery.
There is a patch on the holes, but hopefully, you'll be able to make out the locations.
