For cryin out loud...

Does ANYONE have a good solution for fixing the batteries? I have a manual and an auto, both not working right. The auto wont light up the led anymore, and does not want to power the atty when hooked up. It connects to charger like it is charging, but the charging light NEVER gets green.

The manual red led has been on for almost 10 days, and it only turns off when conne cted to charger, yet does not want to work either.

Both of them will blink a few times when connecting to the charger, but do not want t cooperate once disconnected.

[Robert]

Sounds like you do have a mechanical problem. Hope they are not your only batteries. As far as working on them, it's not easy at all to get to the internals of any of the factory batteries. Looks like you need to get more hardware. I recommend just buying another starter kit. That way you will get the spares you need plus an additional charger. Some times the best way to diagnose problem is to swap parts out with known working parts.

Try getting an adapter and use 801 batts on them. It rocks! The 510 batts are crap.

The 510 regular batts are not great, agreed. But the mega batts are quite good. But you have a good suggestion, if for nothing else more flexibility. Where does one get such adapters?

Kurt - you can get adapters at Altsmoke.com...they're great!
