Mine did the same thing so in desperation before disposing of it I did the following and it worked. I turned it on and while strobing, I locked it in place wanting to run the battery completely dead before recharging. It ran that way for about 45 seconds, it beeped and started working correctly. It may only be temporary, but worth a try.

mine did the same thing. these are garbage. I looked at stanleys website and found no info on it at all. They are so ashamed of it they dont even admit they make it. Lemme guess...you got it at wal-mart? I quit going there years ago and now i remember why. It was the only thing open in town and i needed toilet paper, I should have jus t used a smooth rock.

If both lights are flashing after you put a cool battery on the charger, the battery is bad. It could have a bad, worn or shorted cell or other problems inside and the charge will not charge it as long as it reads it as a bad battery. Rechargable batteries do have a finite life determined mainly by how many times you recharge them.

If there is a way to plug it in using an extension cord, then do so.
Instructions can usually be googled specifying the make and model followed by the word "instructions" or "manual".
:o).
The batteries are probably no good or your charger is bad. But I say the batteries themselves are bad. All batteries will only last so long. And it also depends how often they are keep charged and discharged. Basically all batteries require some kind of maintenance (recharging / discharging).

OR the electronic controller is bad.
