Troubleshooting

Batteries not charging or LED not lighting up:

• Ensure the USB-C cable is securely connected to both the charger and the power source.
• Verify that the power source is functioning correctly.
• Check if the batteries are inserted correctly into the charging slots with the correct polarity.
• Gently adjust the battery in the slot to ensure good contact with the charging pins. Sometimes a slight wiggle or spin may be needed to establish connection.
• Clean the battery contacts and charger pins with a dry cloth to remove any dirt or corrosion.

Batteries not holding charge or short runtime:

• Ensure batteries are fully charged before use (LED indicator turns off).
• The actual battery life may vary depending on the device and usage patterns. High-drain devices will consume power faster.
• If batteries have been used for many cycles (over 1200), their capacity may naturally decrease.
