Default Duralite Help!!

I am trying to charge up my duralite's one pack charges "the green light comes on the charger" the other pack the green light will not come on but if I touch the pack the light comes on and off.

Can anyone lend a hand?



Thanks in advance.

The pack with the flickering light, what does the load tester say? The charge leads are separate from the leads that supply power, sounds like the charge leads might be loose on the board... Just call Jack and have him get another one out to you, and send this one back in. (877) 744-3685

If anything is remotely suspicious on that pack, I'd send it in....

On the charge lead "the yellow one" it was reading about 7.40V then a few minutes later I cannot get a reading from the battery, the tester will not even turn on. On my Kingcat there is a JR lead sticking out by the receiver on/off switch and I get a reading of 7.71V of that.

Thanks

those values under a 1 amp load are close to a full charge... BUT, "a few minutes later cannot get reading from the battery"= Send it in.... Jack will send you a new one right away... then you can get back to worrying about other stuff
