It does suck, and I like the Dewalt blower better. Too many bad batches of chargers. They really need to have better quality and to double check before they are released.

I went back to Home Depot for a third time and this time we tested the battery. The third unit also did not blink when charging and the green light in the back of the battery was only showing one light. This was a very disappointing experience. This was my first Dewalt product and now my confidence with them has gone down. They had a Ryobi battery blower at the store that has a little less power but it was $50 cheaper.When I plugged in the battery to their charger, it blinked and the green light on the battery in the back showed it was charging. Oh well. Live and Learn.

I went back to Home Depot and exchanged the entire blower with a new unit. Guess what? Same problem with the new unit as well. The battery does not charge even though there is only one green light. I have to take it back again. ☹️ I might try to test the third unit battery at the store. If the third one does not work, I will have to go with a Milwaukee blower.

I just purchased the Dewalt 60V blower. I went to charge it after I figured out how to remove the red cover. As soon as I plugged it in, the red light did not blink but stayed red. Based on this information I assumed it was fully charged. Without 10 min's it died. I pushed the button in the back and only one green light would lite up. So I put it back in the charger and also decided to charge it inside since the manual warns about charging it below 65 degrees. The red light stays red and the one green light says on. I thought it was suppose to blink when charging. I read a lot on line about people complaining about battery issues after I purchased it. Hopefully the battery is not defective.
