Hello Glen frazier,
Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear about the experience you have encountered with your battery/charger. Here are a few troubleshooting suggestions to check out. 1) When the battery is inserted, the light should begin flashing green to indicate the battery is charging. If this light is not igniting or is flashing red, this may indicate an issue and we would be interested in hearing more about this. If the light simply goes solid red, try removing the battery and unplugging the charger for about 10 minutes and place them both indoors in a room temperature setting, as this might indicate the battery is at the incorrect temperature to be charged. 2) Ensure that the battery has been fully inserted into the charger. Sometimes this requires a firm push into place to make sure that it has been properly seated. 3) Try resetting the charger. To do this, simply unplug it for approximately 10 minutes and then plug it back in and try reinserting the battery. If the charger has been plugged in for extended periods of time, this can sometimes cause the charger to malfunction. Should you still require further assistance, we would be interested in hearing more about this issue. Please submit an email using the customer contact page on our website or give us a call at 1-888-909-6757 (1-888-90WORKS).

Hello George02,
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that you have experienced an issue with this product The charger can at times go into a false defect; this means it's unable to correctly read the battery and may show the battery as being defective when it's not. This information is located inside the charger's manual. To resolve false defect, remove the battery from the charger for 1 minute, then reinsert. If the status LED blinks GREEN, then the battery is properly charging. If the status LED is still blinking RED, remove the battery and unplug the charger for 1 minute. After 1 minute, plug in the charger and reinsert the battery. This should resolve the false defect detection. If you have followed the correct charging procedure and are still finding that your batteries are not holding their charge as they should, we would be interested in hearing more about this issue. Please submit an email using the customer contact page on our website or give us a call at 1-888-909-6757 (1-888-90WORKS).
