KX3 - KX3BC code 27.27.27

stan levandowski
After 14 hours of charging and with 2 hours to go, the display showed
"t=27.27.27"

Couldn't find any such error code in the documentation supplied with my
KX3BC package.

Can anyone clue me in?

The batteries I was charging at the time were Radio Shack NiMH 2400 ma
cells and they were totally drained prior to charging.

Charging was via my Astron RS-20M shack supply.

KX3 now reporting 10.9 V on battery power.

Stan,

It's a miscommunication between the KX3's MCU and the MCU on the  
KXBC3. We have a new release of KX3 firmware that fixes this in our  
tests. I'll send it to you.
