Batteries Won't Charge

I have purchased the Fly More combo, but today, I am met with a problem. The past couple weeks with the Mavic have been great, but I can no longer fly due to this problem. I've documented it below. Anyone with suggestions, please reply. I need this drone for a shoot I have coming up. Thanks in advance.

Did you think to try another Wall Outlet (dedicated) rather than just the Power Strip you're currently using? If that's not the problem, then you probably have a defective Charger. It happens..

Yeah, I used 5 different wall outlets. All did the same thing.

Try the car charger then you will know if it's the main charger or the Remote.

Car charger works fine. Just tested it.

Could you take wall charger into a local electronic shop for repair. Could be a simple job or get a generic type charger. At least it doesn't seem to be the RC.

I guess I could. I just spoke with DJI support and they told me I'd have to send this one back before they could issue a replacement unit. Also no electronic stores near me sell the charger, only the car charger. I might just have to buy another one. For a company that makes such good aerial imaging devices, they should have better service and support.
