I charged everything up 1st of April for a trip to Arkansas and when I got there it rained steady and didn't get out at all. So the detector has been shelved since then. I went to the park yesterday to do some detecting and didn't notice the coil wasn't active until I got to the park and turned the control unit on and the coil wasn't connected. That's when I noticed the coil light wasn't flashing. So went home and connected to the charger and it charged in the normal amount of time and when done I removed the clip and still no flashing indicator on the coil and it doesn't connect. Anyone have any issues with this on the HF coils. Reckon I will have to send it in for warranty repair. My other two coils are still charged and connect ok.

I was thinking the same thing. The charge clip needs to be on there just right...
Yes it pretends to be charging normally except when I first attach the charge clip the light blings 3 times and goes off for several times and then stays on steady and charges and when done the coil light flashes about every 3 seconds, and when I remove the clip the coil light does not flash anymore. It is dead. I am using version 4.1 and everything is ok using the other coils and the pinpointer works flawlessly. Thanks for the suggestions. I think it will need to go in for repair or replace!
I did remove the battery from the stem and unscrew the connector and check across the battery pins for a voltage check with a digital multimeter and it reads 0.0. So I think for some reason or another the battery has conked out.
