Lumix Charger Question

1 year 2 months ago #729989 by doc47
Hi! New guy here.
I'm charging an OEM Lumix battery with an OEM Lumix charger. I get a green, flashing light. Does this indicate a battery problem or a charged battery? It does it with both batteries I have. 
Any ideas?

G'day mate

Just seen this post - hope you haven't been hanging on forever :(
As best as I can make out, the OEM charger is not a smart charger ... mine shows a green light while charging which goes off once the battery is deemed 'done'. There is no flashing

My 3rd-party charger for both house and 12v car use, is a better charger and it changes colour from red to orange to green as it does its stuff

To come back to your Q ...
flashing? not sure - are the batteries genuine or 3rd party (ps- I use both sorts).
performance? after spending some time in the charger, does the camera show charged or flat or somewhere in between?

Hope this helps
Phil
