Intellicharger i4 issue

[Spencer87]

So I have an i4 nitecore charger. Not the best, but it does the job.

Anyways, Since I have had it, if I put something in all 4 ports, it starts flashing 1 light, then 2 lights, then 3 lights, then shuts off only to repeat the cycle.
What is wrong with it? why does it do that?
I can use 2 ports fine, but is there a simple fix to this issue?
anyone else expereince similar thing?

I have the Nitecore Intellicharge i4. My charger doesn't do what you report when 4 batteries are being charged simultaneously.

I don't really have an answer to your question. It sounds like the board has an issue with charging four batteries simultaneously. I don't know of a fix for this problem. I do believe that the board splits power between bays 1 & 3, and bays 2 & 4, in a pulse modulation fashion.

I also have a Nitecore Intellicharge i4, and have never had it act like yours. Did you get it from a reputable supplier? There have been reports of clones. This is just one.... !!!!!!!!SAFETY ISSUE!!!!!!!!! Nitecore D4 clone - Take 2 | ALL ABOUT E-CIGARETTES UK
