[cao232]

Posted this in the new member forum but thought maybe its best i posted it here.Just got my new itaste svd with these batteries: PANASONIC CGR18650CH HIGH DRAIN 10A Hybrid IMR

This charger: eFest LUC V2 intelligent Smart Charger

With the new kanger aerotank.Charged up the batteries until the lcd lights stopped flashing and had 4 solid bars.Put a battery in the svd,turn it on....and get 7-8 red blinking lights and a "low". Now im not sure if i screwed up and got the wrong batteries,there somehow not charged all the way or my svd is messed up.Tried to hold the power button for 5 seconds for a restart and nothing...Im clueless on what to do coming from an ego-v v2 everthing was much easier.lol.Hoping someone can show me what im doing wrong.thanks

Putting a 'charged' battery in says 3.5 and does the red yellow green on the fire button.

Assuming you've tried both batteries with the same result, and assuming that it's unlikely you've gotten two bad batteries (although that's certainly not an impossibility)... then as you have guessed, you ether have a bad charger or a bad SVD (or, again, not out of the realm of possibility, both devices have issues).

Buy, borrow or otherwise obtain a DMM to test the batteries voltage... this will point you towards one or the other device as being faulty. That is - with your apparent luck - you don't get a problematic DMM. ;-)

I ended up getting it figured out but thanks for the response.
