Indulgence Charger Not 3v/6v compatible (SOLVED)

[Dogsbody]

Ok I ran some tests on the 3v batts in the standard Indulgence multi-voltage charger and had the multi-meter hooked up to it to monitor the voltage.

I started with 2 semi-flat EM 3v LiFepo4's and put one in my DX 3v only charger and one in the Indulgence charger.

The 3v charger went green at about 3.3v which seems about right?

The Indulgence charger kept going up, I stopped it at 4.23 v so as not to damage it. It was still red and still charging.

Solution: get 2 of these $5 ea. free shipping. DealExtreme: $4.96 Nano Li-ion Single 3.0V CR123A Charger

I also got a 3v Soshine charger, but it is actually a 3.7 v charger so dont get it for the 3v lifepo4's.

yes, DB,

we have done this dance in a couple of other threads,
it seems that there are a few defective chargers out there--

the ones that do work, do charge and shut off and turn green at around --** 3.6v**

-- ** this from the previous post on this subject --
it is a dead issue and has been discussed and done - **

If your charger does not turn green after 4 hours, --
please contact customer service, ----

It is obviously defective and needs to be replaced.8-o
