hi all looking for some ideas about my Baofeng GT-3TP. Been in the truck for a few months before lockdown so brought it into the house and the charging station is constantly flashing red/green. The battery is completely dead and the charger will not charge it. Any ideas?????

Better to change board out of those desk chargers, bit dangerous. I use XL4015 separate box which can also be used in the car. Needs any voltage supply above 9v to 36v to run. 2 amp about the best. Made some dual 18650 battery packs so loads of power all day operations.

I had the same problem. SOLVED -- changed the 12V charger for a 10V charge (Beofeng) and it has charged up without any further problems. Intamike
