Hello, I unpacked my two cameras yesterday, Started charging them to be sure.

 

The first one, blinked rapidly blue to start with and then went out. After a while the LED was solid blue. That's the way it should be, as I understand it.

 

The second one, blinked rapidly blue and then one long yellow blink. Then nothing. Charged it over night, disconnected in both ends a few times.

 

Can't find answers to my question, what is wrong, if any? Battery and all cables are tightly mounted.

 

Thanks.

Hello..!

 

The battery charged well, in both cameras, at least it says 100% in settings. It was the different LED behaviour that puzzled me.

 

Thanks

The battery packs are supposed to came charged ( tho there always is a small amount of self drain over time )

 

I would set up the cameras ( the one in question if need be can run with the ac cable/adapter , with or without the batttery installed )

 

Once set up, it is easy to see the charge level under Settings>camera

 

If you have any issues, you can always test the seconf camera by swapping battery packs ( from the one that operated correctly )

mgtontop,

 

Did the batteries show a charge after you completed setup? Please let us know if you're still having any issues.
