On AA and CC won't auto shut off. Even overnight. Lights stay red. Using correct type batteries. Is it Broken?

The lights on my charger go out when the batteries are fully charged no matter what size battery. If you don't have one already, buy a battery tester (available from Amazon.com for $2.89) to be sure that the batteries can still hold a charge. If they cannot hold a full charge, this may be a reason why the lights stay on. Otherwise, I would return the unit. Hope this helps.

All I can say is that I have two of these chargers, one for more than 5 years, and I have never seen the red lights stay on constantly. Usually within 6 hours the batteries are charged and the red lights goes off. Hope this helps.

Dont charge AA but charge C batteries (Dont know what CC is) a lot - it does shut off. It seems that something is defective.

My light (green) stay's on when charging. It goes off when complete. Mine only blinks when the battery is low. It sounds as if your battery might be faulty. I never use tech support on anything. They usually know less about their products than we do!

The light on mine turns off when it's dead. It also tasks around 3 hours when I charge mine. Yours might be broken.

With the device fully assembled the end cap - the piece of metal surrounding the orange on/off button - will unscrew by turning it counter-clockwise while holding the boy of the light in the other hand. The AA battery goes on + end first. Good luck. SL

I would suggest you make your own battery pack or buy a different light. My battery pack was dead on arrival. I haven't opened mine up, I started to pull the rubber stand off to get to the batt pack but it's glued on. It'll be damaged if I can't find another way. It's probably got 3 AA cells wired in series to give 7.2V. If I can't hack this to use AA or AAA 'Eneloop' batteries I will dispose of it.

Sounds like power supply. Had it happen on mine. Check how many times the red lite turns on and off and then check unternet

Check all of the connections on top. Solar is kind of fickle. All of my soar light, of every brand, sometimes take a break. Don't know why. Try charging while off too. If nothing works, you've got a bum one.

Use the on/off switch. If that is not the problem, try replacing the rechargeable batteries.

My light did the same thing. I unscrewed the head with the LEDs from the body where the batteries are. I was checking for lose or burnt pieces. After I put it back together it started working and has worked fine ever since. I believe the lights worst problem is little to no quality control at the manufacturer.

That is odd. Did you let it sit for a while? I remember blinking lights for sometime before the constant green light came on.I'd contact Amazon or the manufacturer to see if you can exchange it. Personally, I love mine and even gave one to my best friend for her birthday. I use DuraCell batteries.

If It Isn't Doing Anything Then Your Batteries Are Probably Dead. I Went To Walmart To The Jewelery Department Handed Them The Old Battery & They Gave Me New Ones..Just Add Soon As You Install The New Batteries And Put It All Back Together It Should Automatically Come On. Mine Did Not Have An On/Off Switch. I Just Took The Batteries Out When I Was Done.

1.the regulator should not be shutting off the output from your Battery (if) you are sure it's getting charged fully.2.personally it sounds like a Load short or overload ?are you using a 12 volt photo cell to turn the lights on??3.try to just Light the lights off the battery,without the controller,see what happens,add a DC ammeter to the Load,see what it shows.I hope this might help some.

I think I solved it. Once you clean it as the manual says you need to reset the system. With it plugged in but NOT turned on, put a paperclip or something in the reset button and press the (I think) Timer button. Should work then. The reset procedure I just described is in the manual right after the cleaning instructions.Thats funny V. Montez, I did the same thing - put it away for a cpl months and finally decided to tackle that damn blinking red light. Its all working well now!

Maybe try unplugging it and then plug it back in...usually when the green light flashes it is because of the timer...it will automatically shut down after an hour then you have to power off and then on again....let me know if this helps if not we can try something else

Try taking the batteries out for an hour from both units. Re-sync. Good luck.

When the battery is fully charged the red light should come off. Are the shears properly cleaned and oiled a bit? (a tiny piece of leaf in between could cause it to stick.

Try changing the "AA" battery. If this does not work, I don't know what do to.
