Triple Flashing Lights

kcoleman805 · Jul 8, 2017

Just took my Mavic for a flight using two batteries. Finished flying and brought my Mavic inside to charge the batteries. I placed my two batteries into the charging dock, as I usually do, and when I did so the light on the charging dock went red. And the green light closest to the power switch would blink 3 times, and then again and then again. So I took them off the charging dock and tried to just charge them individually to see if that would work, and the same thing happened, 3 blinking lights from the light closest to the power button. I have a third battery and tried to charge it and it worked fine. The two batteries that are having issues are the two I just used to fly with. What is the matter? Please help! Thanks!

Thanks. Just tried charging them now that they have cooled down and all is well!

Yeah, probably hot battery. Since summer came around I leave them out of the case for a little while after flying and let them get some airflow since they won't cool down in my bag.

Just leave them on charger and they'll be fine and charge.

When they're too hot they won't charge. Just leave them in the charger. They'll eventually start charging on their own.
