How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the charger immediately if you notice excessive heat or a burning smell. Do not touch a very hot battery with bare hands.

  • 1. Allow to cool: Place the battery and charger on a non-flammable surface and allow them to cool completely.
  • 2. Check environment: Ensure charging is done in a cool, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
  • 3. Inspect charger and battery: Look for swelling, cracks, or burn marks. Do not use damaged components.
  • 4. Try another charger or battery (if available): This helps identify whether the charger or battery is at fault.

Replace any component that overheats abnormally. Do not continue using a battery or charger that has shown signs of overheating.
