Riva Battery Hell/Help

[Rigel4]

I am on my second Riva kit within ten months and as of half an hour ago, I have one battery left with a charge in it, the other snapped (Over tightened it) because it wouldn't charge.

The 400mah usb charger lead is broken too. I have several chargers all 200mah output but none of them will turn the the light red.

What can I do. I'm not in a position to buy more gear as i am unemployed.

It sounds like you've pushed the centre pin down by overtightening. See this thread

Also it's important to keep the connectors clean.

Your 200 mAh charger should charge ok, just take longer. Try cleaning the connectors, i use baby wipes or alcohol swabs and try gently lifting the centre pin.

If all else fails, this kit is reasonably priced, around the same as 3 packs of ciggies if you use code AAEC

It's a pity i didn't come here first as , the centre pin tip worked. But i broke a battery earlier trying to get it to connect.

Thank you for your replies and your help.

Can anyone suggest a good replacement battery as now i only have one.
