There are two screws on the back, one between the plug in prongs and the other under the sticker on the back. I do not sell chargers or batteries but use a lot of them. I don't like to just throw stuff away.Thank you,David WombacherThe Camera Hunter Bending that closer to the other one and cleaning the contacts fixed it. I am not big on writing online reviews.
I am an online retailer in business full time since 1999. This charger came with one camera I purchased and it is the best charger I have ever had. I do feel compelled to write one for this charger though. The one closest to the board was manufactured slightly off center.
Remove both, pull the circuit board straight out, bend the prong mentioned above closer to the other, clean the two prongs on the side that makes contact with the wall plugs with a pencil eraser, clean all the battery contacts with an eraser, put it back together and it should work. What I have found is that one of the internal contacts that connects the outlet prongs to the board when in the plug in position was bent. Last night I unplugged it, reloaded batteries, plugged it in and DEAD, did NOT work. I sell photo gear and get things in large lots.
I was so bummed I went looking for a new one, found this one, but before purchasing decided to try and repair the broken one. I hope this helps someone out.
It had moderate usage during that time (maybe once a month for 4 AA batteries). This charger has a limited 3 year warranty. It was easy to use and worked fairly well while it worked. I would not purchase from this company again. I purchased it on March 9, 2006. Warning: if you do not register the product within 30 days of purchase, the warranty is good for 1 year only. The charger stopped working on Oct 29, 2007. Based on this experience, I would not trust the quality and reliability of their products.
Just from the above, it has the telltale Made in China quality that makes me afraid to try it. 4 leds but it says in small print 2 or 4 at a time. I'm leaning to getting a Sony instead. Says "Hi speed" but does not mention hours. Very little info on package. Nice easy to open clamshell package though, nice little tab. Look at how much technical info Amazon gives you on this one.
