If the red light is flashing after inserting a NP-20 battery in the Casio Lithium Charger BC11-L, it means that the battery will not take a charge. Normally when putting the batterry in the charger, the light will be a constant red. After charging is complete, the red light will go out. Battery is then fully charged and ready for use.
I found this while trying to solve my exact same problem.. It worked for me after about 7 times. Some other people on the site said it worked for them after 20 times. Good luck!
My NP 20 gave me the flashing red light of death and I got Casio to replace it. Then I had the same problem with my second NP 20 so I dug around for a way to fix it and I found the following advice on a site called FixYa. It worked instantly and I didn't risk ruining my battery. ylu1 writes: I had the same problem as this. what i did was... i kept putting the battery on the charger then took it off as soon as the red light came on. i did this about 6 times. doing this puts a bit of charge in the battery each time before the charger starts to flash. after the battery as got enough charge in it it can start to charge. hope this helps.
I had this exact same problem. Here's a solution. I had to do it about 7 times and others on Amazon said they had to do it about 20 times. But it does work! My light is a solid red as we speak! Good luck!

Okay I just fixed this on my camera the same thing. First make sure your battery is charged. You will need to get a paper clip. Take the battery out and unfold the clip so that you can use it to pull up the contacts between the battery positive and negative and the camera. The conductors need to touch the positive and negative on the battery. If you battery is dead you will need to do this as it will not charge your battery on the cradle becaue there was no connection. over time I think that the battery loses its connection and the spring is not strong enough to push up the battery far enough. I ordered a battery charger and new battery and it still didnt work so I started to tinker with it. I held the battery with my finger pushing it up and holding it, and simaltaneuously powered on the camera. Thats when I figured it wasnt the battery but it wa the connection with the battery and the camera.
I had the same problem. Here's what I found that worked for me. I had to do this about 7 times but others that I read had to do it about 20 times but worked for them as well. Good luck!

I read that if you connect a 9V battery (+ to +, - to -) to the NP-20 for 10 seconds, it will jump start the battery and provide just enough charge for the battery charger to recognize the battery. The problem is that the NP-20 battery becomes so low that the charger will not charge it. I also read that you can use 2 D size batteries if you don't have a 9V battery.
Just make this connection to the NP-20 battery, not while in the charger! Only connect it for about 10 seconds or so. Everyone who tried it was successful and the battery would charge when it was put back into the charger. There should be no need to buy a replacement battery.
When I place my battery in the charger, the light flashes red, but wont charge it.
