Motocaddy Lithium battery

[Liverbirdie]

My mate has just bought a new lithium battery and the red light is flashing when he is charging it for the first time, instead of just being on constantly.

It doesnt mention a flashing light in the troubleshooting instruction sheet - anyone had similar, as he doesnt want to leave it on all night, if dodgy.

Pete.

Is he using a legal domestic mains or the old 'leccy from the lamppost la' to charge it?

Mine did that last month, but was 15 months old, it was the charger mate, battery was fine, they gave me new charger.
If you know anyone else with one, get him to borrow their charger or plug his charger on to their battery.

What's leccy, we have classic steam generators here.

I always get a steady red light when charging mine.

Solid red light which turns green with mine.

Yep, same here.

is there a "safety" switch on the battery that needs to be in the "on" position to charge

Thanks for all the replies, he's reading in.:thup:

I think he's going to contact them again, as customer service weren't much help, first time around.

I had a problem with the charger a few weeks ago and after calling them, I had a new charger in the post in two days. Great service.
