CTX 3030 - Charging the WM10 module (lights)

[TrpnBils]

Did a 10 hour hunt on Saturday, charged the WM10 and the detector battery on Saturday night, but had to unplug my WM10 from the charger after about 3-4 hours to charge my phone. I figured since my detector battery was at 1/2 that the WM10 would be mostly charged on Sunday so I didn't bother to charge any more. The WM10 died on the afternoon of the 10th. I drove home for 2.5 hours with it charging in my truck, and then plugged it into the wall this morning (about 14 hours ago now).

It's still plugged in and the only light on it is a fast-flashing red light above the power button. I was under the impression that the light was supposed to be green when it was fully charged. Is this normal, or is something maybe wrong with my WM10?

have you read the owners manual about the charger?

Got the detector used with no manual, but I have seen the graphic related to stuff with the actual battery charger's lights. Is it the same for the WM10? I'm finding conflicting information, but if it is the same then the flashing red light means there's an error or defect with the WM10.

the detector doesn't come with the manual. Its free online as a PDF, but yes, that what it means.

I got the red light once when I left the WM10 on charge overnight. I just assumed it meant it was overcharged. It worked OK after that.
