Hi All again,

I have just got a new battery for my Satlook NIT meter and have a problem with charging it. I should add that the new battery is for a Satlook Combolook meter, but was advised by the supplier that although the battery is bigger, it will work. I have two chargers, both 1.7A and have tried both for days on end.

Question:
When charging, the highest voltage the meter shows is 14.1V. When unplugged from the charger the meter shows that the battery is only about one third charged, more or less.

Is this normal, or am I doing something wrong?

I should add that I used the meter today for about 10 mins and the battery gauge hardly moved, so I don't think it's going to cause me a problem. Apart from this, the Satlook works great.

Hope you can help.

Roy
