I didn't put this under the Phantom 2 thread seeing that it might be the same problem for any Phantom.
I just received a new Phantom 2 to replace one that finally crapped out. The new battery that came along with it appears to be faulty. It looks fine (not swollen or anything) but I cannot get it to charge. In fact I can't get it to light up at all. When I press the power button one time it won't blink at all. I've tried holding it down...pressing it twice...everything. When I plug it up to the charger, the charge light stays green and never seems to charge. My other batteries appear to charge fine with the new charger.
Any ideas? Send the battery back? Any tricks to get it working?
thanks.
