My EFlite Blade CPP battery is not charging well.
It normally would charge for about an hour, then there would be a twinkle (not a flash) in the green light for about ten minutes, then it was done.
It worked great. As soon as I noticed a decrease in power, I would land the CP Pro.

Now, when I plug in to charge, the green light twinkles immediately and goes out after abour 10 or 15 minutes.
I tried re-plugging it for another 10 minutes, etc. but it doesn't seem to get a charge.

I bought a new battery that does the same thing. If I'm lucky, on one of the many tries, I might not get the twinkle and will
get an hour of charge.

I thought it might be the power source being intermittant (Baghdad), but when plugging it to back-up battery box, it still does this.
I plugged it to a car battery, same thing.

If the batteries are bad, especially the new one, then I'm in the wrong sport. At $35 a pop, they need to be more robust than that.
I always land my helo at the first sign of power decrease.

However, I think it's my charger...anyway to test it? I may just send it to Horizon Hobby and ask them to trouble shoot
the batteries and charger.

Thoughts?

Just by the way you describe the second new battery acting in the same manner would lead me to believe its down to the charger as you have proved its not the power source

I have had 2 eflite chqargers now fail on me but not a cp charger these were off B400 and cx2 but both failed within a month, but touch wood the new ones have been working fine

There was one other thing...if I bump the table, or just barely touch the charger, it starts flashing error.
I spoke with Horizon Hobby and asked the if they would look at the charger. Based on my description, they said
they didn't need to see it...thay have a new charger on the way.

Thanks for the feedback.
