    Faulty Technoline BL-700 (La Crosse BC-700) charger?

    Me neither! Weird, it was in english when I posted the link.

    Faulty Technoline BL-700 (La Crosse BC-700) charger?

    A lot of sources suggest they are equally genuine. eg: https://www.bviphotovideo.com/en/technoline-lacrosse

    Faulty Technoline BL-700 (La Crosse BC-700) charger?

    Paying more for mine did not prevent these problems, but it is 10 years old, which seems like a reasonable lifetime. It is a pity that the other highly-rated chargers (Powerex MH C-9000; Opus BT C-700) don't currently seem to be available in the UK (except at silly prices), so I'll probably go...

    Faulty Technoline BL-700 (La Crosse BC-700) charger?

    In case it helps anyone else with a similar problem, the borrowed charger has helped confirm that the problem is my charger. With several of my batteries my old BL-700 will only charge for an hour or two and if I run a discharge test they discharge about 200-500mAh. In the borrowed charger, they...

    Faulty Technoline BL-700 (La Crosse BC-700) charger?

    Faulty Technoline BL-700 (La Crosse BC-700) charger?

    Thanks, Chris. So you are suggesting that if my batteries have developed high internal resistance, this could be triggering the charger to think they are full, prematurely? That seems plausible. However, why would the charger not just continue to say the battery is full if I put it back in...

    Faulty Technoline BL-700 (La Crosse BC-700) charger?

    I think my Technoline BL-700 (La Crosse BC-700) charger has developed a fault, but I wonder if any charger experts have any thoughts on whether I'm right. (It is 10 years old.) I have a few dozen LSD AA batteries for various uses, but the biggest consumer of them is a digital radio that I use...
