Received the packet of 2 and plugged in to charge overnight. Have tried recharging, but one battery just doesn't work. I need a replacement battery...please. I have swapped batteries around, and both watches work with the battery that charged. Thanks so much for your assistance.
-   I have the same problem on a package I just opened. One battery was shipped stone cold dead. Multiple outlets and chargers tried, other battery works fine in both watches. The website listed as a Battery Replacement contact appears to have never been constructed (www.uselectronics.info), so I will try the attached phone number a little later (1-800-828-5208).

People like me at Fixya don't provide parts for warranty products, but its probably not the battery.
You aren't looking for advice ... but I'll provide a little anyway. Most of the time the customer has unknowingly plugged a charger into an outlet that turns off when the light switch (on the wall) is turned off. So the battery never charges.

I have two Bellsouth Model FW13Z Two-Way radios. The batteries still work and the displays still work. The problem is somehow one of them will no longer produce any sound at all. I gave it a full charge and also opened it up to see if the speaker wire was disconnected. I did not see any problem. Since it is impossible to get replacement batteries for these radios and it is cost prohibitive to repair I plan to toss them. Before I do this if you would like the set with the good batteries and one working radio, two chargers, instruction manual and one ear jack let me know. I will send the package to you for the cost of shipping. Big Al
