Status: offline 		Dear Mike, I was using my cg330 field charger to charge my dead flat glow igniter (1300mah battery). It was charging for two hours when I decided to stop it bacause the led did not blink at all. I was expecting to be fully charged around an hour. I was also concerned that the 60-min time limiter did not stop the charging. Is there anything wrong with my unit ? I checked the battery voltage and it was at 1.4V just after charging.

Thanks.......................

PS Sorry that I had to post this here although I know that this is a slightly different forum. I thought it will be easier to contact you here.

Status: offline 		Hi Mike, is it possible that the charging current is below 1A if my 12V battery is weak ? Does the cg-330 automatically regulates the currrent level to 1A irregardless of the 12V battery level ? BTW, the weak battery LED in my charger did not light up during the 2-hour charging period.

Thanks again for your asistance .............

Status: offline 		Dear Mike, I suppose this means that my charger is faulty. It is only two months since I purchased it and rarely used. How can I send it in for warranty replacement ? Thx............
