SlowMo Posted November 24, 2005 Report Share Posted November 24, 2005 Hi,so my gf got herself a rh10, and it worked fine until today, since it refuses to charge its akku. it seems not to recognize it at all. if i insert the battery from my nh900 it charges it correctly, and if i insert her akku into my unit, the akku gets charged as well, but the unit simply refuses to charge its own battery. it doesn't load when connected to usb either.i'm stuck here, could this be some "burning in" that the batery still needs, or is it perhaps super discharged so the unit doesn't recognize it ?the unit is almost brandnew btw, and shows no other flaws different from this issue.thx.

greenmachine Posted November 24, 2005 Report Share Posted November 24, 2005 Charge it with your unit for the first time and avoid deep discharge in future (don't leave the battery in the unit with quickmode on if it doesn't get used for a few weeks).

SlowMo Posted November 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2005 (edited) well, the unit is like a week old, and it hasn't had the opporunity to discharge over a longer period, the battery has made about 2-3 charge/discharge cycles. it ran dry while playing, and the battery couldn't be recharged since.i'm currently trying to charge it with my nh900, but it acts as if the battery was already full, meaning the charging sign appears for about 2 minutes, then disappears again, and the battery remains uncharged.i already believe the battery might be broken.//edit: i just tested it with my digital multimeter, and it turned out to have a total voltage of exactly 0.00. that's bad, right ?

greenmachine Posted November 24, 2005 Report Share Posted November 24, 2005 It should never be significantly below 1.0V without load. Seems like it is defective for whatever reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rei-gouki Posted November 25, 2005 Report Share Posted November 25, 2005 Check the shrink wrap around the negative terminal as well in case it's interfering with the MD's contacts with the battery. Just shave it if it's covering too much of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
