Troubleshooting
- Charger Not Powering On: Ensure the power cord is securely connected to both the charger and a working AC outlet. Verify the outlet has power.
- Battery Not Charging:
- Confirm the battery is a compatible 3.7V Li-ion rechargeable type.
- Check that the battery is inserted correctly with the correct polarity.
- Ensure the battery is not damaged or faulty.
- For 26650 batteries, ensure only 1 or 2 are inserted at a time.
- Indicator Lights: Refer to the Operating Instructions section for the meaning of the red and green indicator lights. If lights behave unexpectedly, re-check connections and battery types.
