I am using a T3 with a J3.
Without headphones or the interconnect to my car plugged in the J3 has no issues (and no value )). As soon as I plug something in the output (in other words try to use it), The J3 battery meter (artificially) goes to 0 and shuts down. If I plug an output in before I turn on amp, the battery meter shows the accurate charge until I use a function on the amp (gain switch or volume) then it drops to 0 and shuts down. Battery is not actually 0 boots back up showing full battery and w/o amp runs fine.
I use a D4 also and have no such issue,
I worry iBasso will think its a J3 issue and start a week long thread of e-mails with me. I do not know electronics so maybe there is a likely cause I can test for or just make a safe assumption and report it back to iBasso to streamline the exchange.
Like maybe loop-back, feedback, polarity, short.. I am just throwing out words here P
Any thoughts on how to test or what is likely?
Thanks
