Gee, hang on I'll get my crystal ball out :-) I'm afraid it's impossible to say. It could be anything from a dirty battery connection to a full blown power board meltdown. Without having it on the bench it's impossible to say. Try the uwsual silly stuff, make sure the batteries are inserted the right way, make sure they're fully charged, make sure the battery ends are clean, make sure the battery connections in the camera are clean. Try your power supply instead of the batteries, Try a different set of batteries. Next stop, your friendly repair man.

How to recharge superex jumpstart/compressor

Plug in the cord with the switch off. If the battery is still good in the unit then it will take a full day to charge. If you charge it for a full day and you still have nothing the battery is bad. If this is a new unit, check to see if it is under warranty.

2007 Yukon XL Denali won't turn over. Extremely cold out. This is new vehicle for me...has sat for a few days. No lights clicks...nothing. If battery is dead, can it be boosted or recharged? What do I need...

Giving it a boost should work. Could be a bad battery or a short in the electrical system causing a 12v draw which will run the battery down.

Won't turn on (with full batteries)

Bad battery, low battery, bad battery contact, or a short. The camera won't turn on if the battery can not sustain the camera for more than a few seconds to prevent corruption of the pictures stored in the internal and external memory.

You can replace the battery with other new batteries, that way, you can tell whether it is the rechargeable batteries or the iron that are faulty.

Battery life

The rechargeables are only meant to last a couple years maximum (pretty good that you got three out of them). Also rechargeable NiMH's have approximately 5 times the power of standard alkaline batteries. Alkaline batteries should only be used in emergencies in digital cameras as they will only last for a short while before they are drained (as you've discovered).

The obvious solution is that it's time to consider purchasing a new set of rechargeable NiMH batteries. Look on the package for a power rating of at least 2,500 mah. Avoid batteries that do not list the power rating as they are generally inferior batteries.
