Both of my HC's are dead.

Ok, that's weird Joe, the batteries shouldn't have anything to do with the "Faulted No Power" message. The batteries in my original HC-2 are nearly 9 years old at least and don't hold their charge that well but I've never seen that message unless I plugged the charger into the HC without it being plugged into a powerpoint .

That said, your edited post said your chargers are working so that parts good but you didn't say if the HC's now charge with the new batteries in them or not.  If you haven't tried that I'd do so. Let us know.

Hi Tim, I only used the HCs for a little while to confirm they were working. Will trying to charge them when they are showing a full charge do anything? Also, I may have been a little dramatic when I said they were dead. I should have said they had no power.

Hi Tim, I just checked both HCs with both power supplies and they both said exactly what you said they would. You are a genius, thank you for all the times you've helped me.

Hey Joe,

Charging them while they are showing fully charged should be fine. Because the old HC's mechanically detected the charger plug being inserted into the HC as the signal that it's charging the charging page should show when you plug the charger into the HC. After that you should either get "Faulted No Power" if there is still a problem or you'll eventually get the "Charging Done" screen if it's all hunky dory.
