HC-2b charging problem
Morebassman:
Just downloaded the update for the HC-2b Charger the other day.
After the update my controller said it was fully charged.
Don't know why because I had to download the update and it would have lost some power along the way.
Anyway... I downloaded some other updates to controller to update sound on modules until there wasn't enough power to continue.
I tried to charge controller and it was at half way after i checked it later. My fault... I didn't set my timer to charge long enough per manual.
When I tried to fully complete the charge the next day, I get this message in abought 2 min:
Faulted
charger under current
Any suggestions?
William Brillinger:
You mentioned a timer. Do you have the charger plugged into a timer device, or is it plugged into the wall?
It sounds like you may have a faulty charger.
Unplug the charger and let it sit for a while, then plug it directly into the wall socket and try again.
nodcc4me:
I haven't seen that one before. It would suggest the charger is not putting out enough current to charge the batteries. It might have just been a glitch. You should be able to unplug the HC from the charger and finish charging later. If it happens again I would call or email Ring.
Morebassman:
I plugged charger into wall socket like you said and had the same results.
Faulted
charger under current
So any suggestions on a new charger?
I didn't see a replacement on the Ring Engineering site.
A direct link to a recommended product would be appreciated because my knowledge in very limited.
nodcc4me:
I'm sure Ring has chargers available. If your charger is no longer under warranty, or if you just want to get one on your own, this is the same charger under the manufacturer's brand:
