I went to use my vexilar fl-8 this morning and on what I thought was a fully charged battery...... and nothing. Highly frustrated I plugged it in tonight and the charger went to green light immediately claiming it was fully charged. So it turns on and functions while the charger is hooked up but as soon as I unplug the charger the whole unit goes dead? Without being plugged in nothing happens as you turn it on. Is this most likely just a bad battery or is the whole unit shot? It is only 5 years old too btw.
I could be wrong but I believe that the on/off switch of the Vexilar should be in the "on" position while charging. It may be worth giving this a try before buying a new battery.
