Exclamation Dynamite charger

I have the dynamite vision peak 2 charger. Sometimes when i plug the battery in, it starts to charge fine but then all the led's light up and it stops charging. Any idea what causes this? would greatly help, can no longer just plug in and walk away, gotta baby sit to make sure it charges.

I had that charger and I had no luck with it. Other people told me that it was a junk charger. I went out and got the dynamite passport ultra and that things is great. I havent heard anything bad about the passport ultra.

The LEDs flashing indicate the charger thinks the batts have peaked. Its pretty obvious its a false peak so you just have to re-start the charge. Like you've found out, it may take a few times.

Is the charger on a circuit in your house that has a lot of appliances and other items running? I had an issue with a Piranha charger on AC and the false peaks were being caused by other electrical things on the circuit turning on/off while I was trying to charge. Move to a less used circuit in a diff part of the house helped, but didn't eliminate the false peaks. A charger with a peak delay setting did though.

im pretty sure he is talking about the three rectangle lights at the bottom. first make sure that you are on the right voltage setting... this same thing happend to me and my settings were fine. I never found the problem

I would contact dynamite to get a refund or just talk to them about it

I had one of these chargers for awhile, now a friend has it. Mine did the same thing often when it was new. Once I cut the Tamiya connector off it worked like a charm.
