Title: Panasonic G6 battery is flashing
Post by: dragonblade on May 18, 2017, 12:21

Ive just started to charge my Panasonic G6 battery tonight. Normally the charging light appears solid and constant green. However, it's currently flashing. It's never done this before. Any ideas on what's causing this?

My gh4 charger did that too....i cleaned the battery contacts with alcohol and the charger contacts.  Amazing how dirty they can get and screw up charging. Works fine now.

Ah thanks for the tip. I'll give mine a good clean.

Edit: That seems to have done the job. Charging light is now solid green. Thanks again.

Yeah, the manual says too hot, too cold or too dirty.
