[QUOTE="XLOOX, post: 636647, member: 16174"] For some reason I am struggling to charge either of my 2 genuine SDC2300 Lithium batteries using the 12V charger. No problem with using the 240V charger - plug it in, get flashing green light and a few hrs later have a solid green light & good to go again. But when I use the supplied Minelab 12V charger ( just a plug, lead & croc clips) sometimes it goes ok for a while - flashing green but then starts alternating red & green. Other times it starts alternating red & green as soon as plugged in. I then charge them with the 240V charger without issue. I contacted Minelab and they kindly sent me another 12V charger but exactly the same thing happens. I am connecting the charger to a fully charged (12.8V) car battery ( my aux battery in the car). Even with engine running (13.4V) still have issue. Anyone else had similar problem & how did you solve it? [/QUOTE]
