Received 3 new cameras today. Trying to charge them before setting them up as instructed. Using the included cables and wall plug ins. Saw flashing blue lights then it stopped. It’s been 3 hours so far. How can I tell if they are charging? And how long do they typically take to get charged enough for the supposed blue steady light to come on?

hate to waste this much time if nothing is happening.

The XL camera batteries need 6-7 hours to charge - they're that much larger than the standard ones. When first connecting power, the blue LED should briefly flash but then be off until 100% is reached.
