[QUOTE="RedDirtDigger, post: 296973, member: 2964"] Hi Stru, as Mbasko says the issue is common and it happens with nearly all my friends. Also sometimes there is a bad connection where the lead plugs into the charger. I don't like flashing red lights so I always use the clips directly to the car battery. (if charging under the bonnet regularly...take care not to drive off with the battery under the bonnet...like some idiot did.) Another problem with the cigi lead is the ultra thin wires breaking and shorting with use. This has happened to many people. The tip of the cigi lead is hard plastic with no flex so the wires bend around and break there. A friend brought the plug that goes into the charger and a quality cigi socket from ebay I think, and made a new cigi plug lead with some nice heavy wires. cheers RDD [/QUOTE]
