AG 126 charger blinking?

[bogeyjim]

So I just got my 18350 batteries in today with the AG 126 charger from madvapes.

Anyways, theyve been in for like 4 hours now and the led is green but I get a red flash every 3 seconds....

Are they charged yet? its green then a quick flash of red then green again...??

Anyone know?

Thanks!

Never seen mine do that kind of flashing:
- solid red when fast charging
- red rapid flashing the longer it's charging (at least for the single I got going right now)
- rapid green/red flash when almost complete
- solid green when complete
(instructions say nothing about green with intermittent red flash).
Questions:
- are you charging just your 18350 batt's or others?
- only one or multiple batt's at once? If one, is it in the left channel as recommended (the one under the LED)?
- any chance you got a multimeter to measure where the batt's at right now?

Thanks arkangel,

I just got this stuff today, Ive never used any of it before. Im doing both my batteries. Its a solid green, but every 3 seconds it flashes 1 red....

I hope its not a faulty charger :-( I really wanna use my chuck!

I dont have a multimeter to test the voltage, so I dunno if I should take the batteries off or what...

And yea, im charging only 2 18350 batteries....

Thanks, I hope we can get to the bottom of this!

Give madvapes a heads up. They are really good about customer service. I had an atty break apart on me on the first day and they had a replacement out in 3 jiggles of a jack rabbits ....

Mine do that all the time with this model charger. I have two of them and charge 18650's and 14500's. When it progresses to that point, the batts are charged and you can (and probably should) remove them.

Right on thanks for the help everyone, I just remove them when its mostly green with the light going red every once in a while just for a split second.

I emailed mad vapes and he said that particular charger "polls" every few seconds and its fine.

Another thread I made in a different section of the forum confirmed that...

So if anyone has this issue, well, its not really an issue
