Just bought exos 10 new in box but the battery won't charge i paid $200 for it was thinking of sending it back seller offered $30 off the price not sure if that's worth it let me know what you think.

I have one, it's decent, it sounds better than the Aiwa Backtrack. Just depends what you're into.

yeah it doesn't sound bad at all. the thing is that the battery is what makes it nice to take outside not sure how easy it is to replace the battery my guess is maybe the voltage got to low from sitting in the box for 2 years manufacturer date is 2024 and maybe the BMS inside can't charge the battery.
the main boombox I'm using now is the sharp gx-bt9x that has more bass then the aiwa but maybe the aiwa is a little clearer i think.

Or the previous owner kept it plugged in all the time

it was sealed in the box I'm not sure where the guy got it from i was going to see if there was a warranty on it

You know there's a power switch on the back, right? Not just the one on top

Yes it works on ac power I have the switch on the back turned on it just don't work on the battery.

I'm just going to return it i guess

i don't know that it's worth keeping since it needs a new battery & where do you find it & how much does the battery cost
