I put my battery on charge and did not have the battery in correctly so was flashing red. Put the battery in and is ok. Half an hour showed green, and know this was false as I completely discharged the battery.

Tool the battery out, put it back in and an hour later is still showing the red charging lights, so warning everyone there maybe the odd time it says your battery is fully charged and is not.

is it possible to kill the battery in the charger? :confused:

Some times it stands a hour with the red light, before it turnes green, (and then I can play with Percy for around a hour) but other times, I kind of had to put it in the charger a few times, as it only were red for a few minits....
I fully charged the battery yesterday (at least I think so), but didn't get to play with Percy at all, so I let the battery stay in percy trough the night, and here this morning, where I wanted to play with him, he only worked for a few minits,

Right now I have the battery charching agian it stands a little with the red light, then it flasches green, and go over to the red light again a little before it goes into green and back, and some times the light dissapere all from the charger, (not the flasching thing, this is different) and right now it is red again...
well if I did kill the battery I can't kill it again, so I will let it stand untill it lights green again, and then see what is going to happen..
I kind of hope that the battery wasn't fully charged yesterday, and that it died all out over the night, so that I just need to get it charged right again, to be able to have fun with him ...
right now it looks like it is charging right, but I'm really not sure about anything at all....

(I will keep you updated, on this) but really be careful with the battery, I do believe I killed my battery:mad:

I just did charged the battery, and it lasted about one minit, before Percy was run out of battey, I can't think of anything els, thant I killed to battery . . I'm so sad about this

from what i understand it shows green because its overheated, and so you have to take it out to let it cool down for a bit, so no its not fully charged....what i do is leave it in overnight so when it gets hot it stops and when its fine i think it starts charging again....but this is what i understand and you can correct me if im wrong :D

LOL...

I just talked with Lawrence from the online support chat yesterday, he said, that I should leave my battery in the charger for 3 hours, no madder what color it had, and that it don't kill the battery...:)
Oh and he said, that if the battery is all used, it will flasch green and then turne red, when put into the charger.
And he told me that I need another charger..:(
