Hi,
After a visit to the pub on a Christmas night ride I left my Magicshine light on for 2 days! Battery is now very flat. It is the new type with the LCD gauge which is totally blank. I think the circuit in the battery holder has shut down as the voltage has gone too low.
How can I resurrect the battery? Can I remove the cells and charge them in a better charger or can I buy new cells?
Thanks
have you tried charging it using the magicshine charger?
Tried the magic shine charger and no red light came on, so I thought that maybe the charger cannot cope with a very flat battery.
Tried charger again last night, but it seems to have blown the 1A fuse in my shaver adapter plug. Put a larger fuse in and the charger went bang!
It could all be related, maybe charger failed when presented with overly flat battery.
Anyone had this problem?
Can I buy a better charger?
I will try Smudge if no joy here.
Thanks
Big thanks to Smudge and his charger. I recovered the batteries no problem!
