I just bought a HMN9013B battery for my HT1250 when I put in a standard trichem charger the light will stay red when charging the instead of flashing green it flashes red then goes back to steady then flashes again. Is this becasue it is just a new battery or is it defective. The battery is from a reputable Hk dealer and it is a Moto battery not off brand.
Thanks
Steve

Re: HMN9013B CHARGING QUESTION
Dollars to doughnuts the battery has been sitting on a shelf for 6 months or more. The description you've provided sounds like a low-voltage Li-Ion battery, and if you keep it on the charger overnight when you wake up in the morning you'll probably find the light is steady green. If it's still flashing red in the morning then you've got a bad battery.
Re: HMN9013B CHARGING QUESTION
We see that on Li-On batteries all the time. Generally it's with the CP200 batteries but the theory is the same. When we get those we replace them. What is the date code on the battery you got? If it's over 848 you should be able to get a warranty replacement.
