A brand new Emag, about 3 days old. Tried to charge my emag bttery, ive shot about 13,000 or shots on it. Im using a Radioshack 12v 500 mAh.

Light blinks green a few secs, then red a few secs, then STAYS green (trickle mode i suppose, according to the instruction sheet). Then i notice the smell of burning electronics. The chrger is very warm to the touch, the batterey is fine. Needless to say i unplugged it, im not doing that again.

Previously, i tried to charge the batterey in my car, blew 2 adapter fuses. I do not want to buy an $80 charger and have the same results.

Ive done a search:

Ive plugged the battery, then the cord, the the wall adapter trick. Still the same results.

Needless to say im kinda dissapointed this had to happen. I just bought an $800 gun im afraid to recharge. Please help me!

Thnx! word.
