Line 6 Wireless help!

Bought a Line 6 wireless G30 in mid-december. I've used it at three gigs. I put fresh batteries in it today and the transmitter won't turn on. It's never been dropped, battered, stepped on, and I don't recall dunking it in a bucket of water recently. The only thing I can think may have happened is, the last gig I played with it, I may have accidentally left it on after I packed it up. I can't imagine why that would be an issue, but it's the only adversity I can think that it has been through.

I know all the dumb crap you guys are gonna ask me, and yes, I tried different batteries. Yes, I made sure the polarity was right. I even turned on the receiver and plugged a guitar in to see if maybe the battery light on the unit just wasn't turning on. So...Thoughts?
 
Send it back. There have been many issues reported on TB with the G30 recently. I just got done filling out the return authorization for mine. Bought it a month ago. Cuts off in the middle of songs. Started out just once and I thought it was a fluke, then it started happening about every other song and now every song. Very embarassing at gigs. Very annoying at practice. Tried batteries and different channels to no avail. I love the little thing if it would only work consistently.
