This camera uses a Rechargeable Li-ion Battery EN-EL19 If you let these type of batteries fully discharge then you may not ever get it to take a charge again. You can go for a cheap third party battery and see if that works. It may be the cheapest option. Have a look here

Testimonial: "Have a new battery in place,turned on first time after fully charging the battery, but now will not turn on. No light comes on. Dead as a dodo."

More likely to be a battery issue than the camera.

Do the batteries work in another device? They may have just deteriorated with age or being left uncharged.

Are you sure they are rechargeable batteries?

Try replacing them , even with cheap generic batteries if they are AA/AAA just to verify the camera works.

Double check you have them oriented correctly when putting them in.

I have a 2006 new beetle, just put in a new battery about a week ago. It drove fine. My problem is, the car won't start when i turned the key. I tried many attempts, but just won't budge. Is

Hi there, with this kind of problem in general, you have to look on any source from where your battery is being drained. Check your new battery if it is drained again. If the voltage is below 12V means there is a close circuit that is using your battery while it is stopped. Recharge your battery and try starting your car or ask a friend to jump your car. If it wont start check your starter motor. Another factor to think of is maybe your alternator is not charging your battery.

My Samsung N145 Battery does not power the notebook

If thelaptop battery is more than 3 - 4 years old then the battery could be worn out.Rechargeable batteries have a finite number of charge and discharge cycles andwill lose their charge capacity over time, i.e. won't charge to 100% and graduallythe charge reduces until the battery won't charge up at all. OR The batteryshows a 100% charge but when the adapter is disconnected the battery drops offto zero capacity in a very short time. If the battery drops to an unacceptablecharge level then the battery needs to be replaced.
