The Xtar VP2 charger I picked up about a month ago showed information on the charging display panel when I first started charging, but sometime in the middle of charging my first battery, the display just went blank and no longer shows anything. When I returned to check on the status of my batteries, I could see nothing except the red/green LEDs for each battery.
It should look like this:
but, instead, it stays completely blank.
The charger still works--after a while, the LED goes green and the battery reads fully charged on my Vamo--but I'm operating on pure guesswork for selecting the charging rate (shown in the center column on the display). Pressing the button above the display appears to still work (the time it takes to charge a given battery lengthens or shortens if I press the button in between charges); but I am not sure if the charge rate resets each time I unplug the charger, so I'm never
exactly sure of what rate I am using.
The instructions for the charger are rather minimal, so I have been unable to figure out if there is a way to turn the display back on. Any thoughts?
