Several factors might be at fault, but user error may be the primary cause. Don't screw your batteries so tightly into the charger.

Make sure you're not cross-threading them too. When you put the battery in, turn it a time or two backwards (counter-clockwise) to make sure the battery is resting flat against the threads; Then tighten down to the point it connects and the LED blinks a few times, no need to crank it down until it won't turn any longer.

My 901 batteries are finicky about going into the charger - I always have to futz with them before they'll screw in correctly. But none of my 510s, in any of my chargers, give me any problems. When the LED starts blinking I know they have contact, and I just tighten them down until it begins to feel firm.

I have to agree with Chef;
I screw my batts in until the LED turns red. That's it, I stop. Sometimes they might even be loose, but they charge just fine as long as the connection is made.

I'll have to go with centronix. If the threads are aligned, it should back out... if cross threaded it may not.

Exactly, i know that my 510 charge is different from my m201 and m401 chargers. The center contact on the charger is a plate with a spring. Screw it in until the light changes and give it a lucky half turn. It will be pretty loose still but like jim davis said. As long as it's making contact.

Mine was getting a bit stuck.... looked perfectly clean too (battery threads). I gave it a good wipe, and stuck a paper towel in the charger and spun it around a bit.... and found some crud. The battery went in perfectly at that point, haven't had an issue since. I give mine a random wipe now every few days.
