How do you charge the batteries or is the instruction wrong and it means change?

As far as I know you must replace the batteries, not charge them. And it is poorly designed electrically/electronically to use any type of rechargeable battery. I know as I tired. It drains a rechargeable to darn quick. Alkaline are not much better, even though it was designed for those. I went back to using manual mechanical ones.

I think it means change the battery . I changed the batteries and never charged them. Hope this helps.

You might want to check to see if you put the batteries in the right way. I made that mistake. The pictures aren't that clear which way you put them in. Good Luck-it works great once you get it going.

I had to charge the batteries after I got them and they work fine. Try charging them.

To change the batteries, you need a very fine phillips screwdriver. It is like doing surgery, easy for something to slip out of place.

I normally move the left pin all the way to the left end and adjust the right pin so that the two pins aligned to the battery's - and + pads. It is awkward because the pins can move. My battery has three pads. To charge the battery you only need to use the - and + pads and ignore the center pad.

Whoops. Thought you were asking how to "charge". According to your manual: Replacing the BatteryUses one 3.0 volt "CR2" lithium battery (Tri-Tronics #1181300). Remove the collar strap from the Bark Limiter. Unscrew the 2 screws on the bottom of the Bark Limiter, alternating between screws, until the two halves can be separated. Remove the old battery and install a new battery, matching polarity.

charge ones not charging by themselves, first on one side then on otherside getting orange light, until you get a green light. Then repeat for other once. I have two batteries out of 6 that I have to do the same thing on. It is like you have to find the spot where it will charge. Phil

They fixed it for me. I wasn't going to even deal with it because having the extra batteries was a plus, but after posting a negative review they contacted me and ultimately ended up sending the correct charger without requesting the old one back. I was fairly impressed. Hope that helps.

Hi Thomas Q., I ordered mine and plugged it in and I believe it has charged the batteries. I will check tonight when I get home to see if they were fully charged and let you know. I do know the charger red light came on when I plugged it in which should signify it is working and charging.FD

I'm confused. I bought this for my son for xmas and it came with the batteries but how do I charge them. There wasn't an adaptor.

Very easy...turn the device over..there is a round cap with a slot in it..place a coin in the slot..turn it counterclockwise..the cap will pop off.. pry the battery out taking notice which side of the battery is facing up..replace the new battery the same way.. replace the cap. It is a good idea to check the battery in both the sending and receiving units..I own 3 of these.. and 2 of them had weak old batteries rite out of the box.. I really like them.

Double check that you have the batteries in the charger correctly, charge them and it should work. Return it via Amazon

Hi, there are instruction with it,,they seem to work. Charge it over nite, run your computer until you get a low battery signal, do this a couple of times, mine will hold a charge for about 5 hrs.

I bought 3 in 2011. I don't recall any instructions. It is designed to charge a 12 volt or lower system. Care must be taken not to over charge the battery. I hooked them up to my car battery for a trickle charge. There is a diode in the black box on the back so at night it will not discharge the battery. Make sure it is hooked up right. check the voltage in sunlight to be sure which is positive and negative. Hook up solar panel positive to battery positive etc.
