As posted in the prior thread (that was closed) I am also experiencing the red charge light begins to blink after hours into charging with the new larger battery. I've only recharged a couple of times overnight after fairly deep discharges. Have found the flashing red charge light the next morning. Unplugged for a moment, replugged and solid red charge continues. Green light after a couple more hours and appears fully charged.
Using the included cable and adapter. Always have. Could it be there is a firmware defined time limit that the big battery is exceeding when needing a full charge after deep discharge. Admittedly, I haven't tried running down the battery for a short time and then charging. Have been away from my radio for the holiday. Never had this happen with the original smaller battery.
PS Jason Houk said "A blinking red charge indicator is a charging error" not an overheat issue.
Thanks
