My Elan 7E sat for about 4 months before I got it. When I got it back she worked fine but now whenever I turn here one, I get a low batter warning and she wont do anything. I tried fresh batteries, even brand new surefire batteries but she wont change.
Any ideas?

I have the Elan 7E but I have the added battery pack that uses AA batteries. Might try that, otherwise, send it to Canon.

I had a similar problem with my Elan II when I first got it.
Ended up taking the batteries out and letting it sit for about a month, then putting a battery in. Never had any other problems with it, so whatever was wrong, apparently that fixed it.

Use a pencil eraser to clean the battery contacts in the camera body off then use your new battery.
