It's charging in a MH-24 charger. it's completely safe. the charger will automatically stop charging when the battery is fully charged. however, if it doesn't indicate a full charge after a couple of hours, then the battery is probably defective. |

It's charging in a MH-24 charger. it's completely safe. the charger will automatically stop charging when the battery is fully charged. Think that's now what happened, I was expecting it to turn green or something rather than not blinking. different chargers have different indicators. nikon uses the blink/noblink. however, if it doesn't indicate a full charge after a couple of hours, then the battery is probably defective. Ah right that makes sense I did look at the Nikon website which was uselesss as it gave no indication of charge time. it should say a couple of hours somewhere. Stoped blinking but still amber so assume it's ready after 1 1/2 hours . I have a few sets of batteriss on charge all AAs in differnt chargers depending on how urgently I need them. 4 in a 2 hour charger which gets hot to touch if left on too long and another that takes 14 hours and I leave that on over night, without worrying. the 14 hour charger is probably timer based and not a good idea to leave it on all the time, especially if the batteries are not fully discharged. the 2 hour charger is almost certainly one that senses end of charge, otherwise the batteries could ignite. |
