topic Battery not charging properly in Camcorders https://community.sony.lu/t5/camcorders/battery-not-charging-properly/m-p/347924#M123 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi I've had my bloggie since Nov 2011. When I try to charge the battery it seems to work ok, light starts off orange, then goes out once charged - but when I try to use it there is virtually no battery life. This happens whether or not I use the usb extension. Is there an update I need or can I get a replacement battery as it's less than a year old? </P><P>Thanks <img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://community.sony.lu/html/@3191CA7235A406D833094BA2DD1CF2FF/images/smilies/011.png" alt=":slight_smile:" title=":slight_smile:" /></P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 01 Aug 2012 13:28:57 GMT naphili 2012-08-01T13:28:57Z Battery not charging properly https://community.sony.lu/t5/camcorders/battery-not-charging-properly/m-p/347924#M123 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi I've had my bloggie since Nov 2011.

If this is the case, you would be well inside of the manufacturer's warranty period and it would make sense to try this first.</P><P></P><P>The contact details are in the following forum thread:</P><P></P><P><A class="loading" href="http://www.sony.co.uk/discussions/message/651957#651957" title="http://www.sony.co.uk/discussions/message/651957#651957">http://www.sony.co.uk/discussions/message/651957#651957</A></P><P></P><P>Thanks,</P><P></P><P>Simon</P><DIV id="ic_listener_added"> </DIV></BODY></HTML> Wed, 01 Aug 2012 22:16:31 GMT https://community.sony.lu/t5/camcorders/battery-not-charging-properly/m-p/347925#M124 blaireau_photo 2012-08-01T22:16:31Z
