Saber Battery/Charger Help

[Tony.RI]

I just bought a Saber I that came with a "may or my not work" battery, a used Motorola NTN4595C. It had what appears to have been a small charge on it when it arrived, but it is now depleted. On my 6-bank charger, it gives me a flashing red light. On an Impress charger, it gives the flashing yellow signal.

I also bought a new "Anderson ADSM-4592H" 2700mAh, Ni-MH. (I don't have the money to buy a new Moto battery.) It seemed to have some issues, but it now appears to be working on the Impress charger, however its giving me a solid yellow on the 6-bank.

None of my chargers came with any manual, and I've had no luck finding info online. Can you guys help me understand what they are trying to tell me?

The first questionable battery is shot... Flashing red in the bank charger or yellow on the impres is a defective battery. If the second one charges in the impres then is yellow in the bank charger it may be showing overheated

I just let them sit in the charger overnight and it seems to have reset something; it charged both batteries successfully. I'll see what happens when I try to charge them again...

I like my Impress chargers V3.4, but I have discovered this...If one has a questionable Saber or Xts battery try a regular charger first.
It seem the Impress series just do a quick analyzation of the battery and give either a never ending flashing yellow or red.
I have had batteries that charged just fine in the old style non-smart chargers that were supposedly bad and the impresses would not charge them.
Just my 2 cents...

I had a battery that stopped charging in the impres charger( flashing error), but worked just fine in the old saber rapid charger. I only charge it in my presence to be sure it don't go up in smoke, but over a year later and it's still chugging right along.

Thanks for the info! The new Anderson battery is currently 100%. I think I'm going to run down the old battery again, and see if my charger will work again. Right now, it only shows either flashing red, or solid yellow.
