I have a Casio EX-Z77 and the second time i went to charge my battery it doesnt seem to be charging, the red light flashes as i put it in the battery charger but when i put it into my camera nothing happens. what do i need to do

Hi, once you put your battery to the charger and the red light is blinking its means yor battery is damage you need to buy new. if the red light is steady only it means your battery is OK.

good luck and thank you my friend

hi, once you charge your battery and the red light blink it means your NP-20 battery is damage and you need to buy new one.TIP- charge 1.5 hours only and if youre not using you camera for a long time its better to remove the battery.

good luck and thank you my friend

Your battery maybe drained, you can try to leave it in charger for hours( it will take long for a drained batt to start charging) blinking led may indicate that charger is trying to supply current to batt, anyways I strongly suggest you to buy a new one

It's a known Fault with the NP-20 battery don't order one and pay for it, ring or e-mail casio customer service they should send you one out for free!! When you receive the new one don't let it die, make sure and keep it partially charged at all time or the charger won't recognize it. Really casio should recall this battery but for some reason they insist on replacing faulty batteries with more faulty batteries!??!

it your batter light is blinking a red light then you should call up casio's technical service and they'll send you a new one:)

call 1-800-435-7732 for technical support! :)

The blinking light indicates a charging error. Try connecting a 9 volt battery to your camera battery. Sometimes if the battery has lost all charge, the charger doesn't recognize it properly.

Aye, jpierre's solution was right on the money. Touch the positive (+) end of the 9v battery to the positive (+) end of the camera battery. Leave them touching for a few seconds (10 seconds should be more than sufficient). Seems these lithium-ion batteries are subject to a 'digital memory.' Subjecting it to a volt surge almost three times higher seems to clear it.

In short, it works like a charm. Thanks jpierre

Here is how you fix the problem (without using a 9V battery method...).

The battery doesn't charge because it's been fully discharged.

What you do is you put the camera into the cradle. Now you see that the Red LED comes on solid for a while. It's charging for a few seconds. Then it starts blinking. When it does that - TAKE THE CAMERA OUT of the cradle.

Now put the camera back and repeat. Do this six or eight times. Each time what's happening is that the battery is getting a tiny bit of charge. After 8 times the LED will come on red and stay solid red.

Bingo, no problem!
