Headset won't recharge battery must be dead - Radio Communications

It likely that rechargable battery is not taking a charge any further or the contacts point of plug are damaged. Sorry to say "it's dead, Jim."

Have you thought that maybe it's time to buy a new battery?

replace a new battery.

Try letting the battery go completely dead on the headset and then recharge it. This should fix the problem.

Have you made sure to replace the batteries with the right kind? Placing non-rechargeable batteries in a charger may damage both the product or the batteries themselves. It may also be that the batteries are dead. If you are adamant about using alkaline, try replacing with a fresh set.

I would suggest leaving it on and draining the battery. Once the batter is completely dead, recharge it. This has helped similar problems with the same headset.

Based on the manual you are supposed to get a cable that connects to the transmitter and that would be the charger, make sure that you get new rechargeable batteries because most products provide you with generic Chinese batteries and those would last just a few recharges.
I'm giving you a link to download the manual I'm not sure about the model but the principle is the same. (click on the support and manuals tab)

BATTERY INSTALLATION AND INFORMATION
Your wireless headphone unit requires two rechargeable AAA batteries.
Rechargeable batteries are uncharged when you purchase them. Before
you can use the wireless headphones, the batteries must be charged for
16 hours. Follow these steps to install and charge the batteries.
Installing the Rechargeable Batteries
Take care to follow these steps to correctly install the batteries.
1. On the right headphone, locate the battery compartment (1).
Use the finger depression on the compartment to turn the battery
compartment cover counterclockwise to remove the cover.
2. Insert two AAA rechargeable batteries, carefully following the
markings inside to ensure the batteries are inserted properly, with
the + and - ends in the correct positions.
3. Replace the battery compartment cover.
Charging the Rechargeable Batteries
To recharge the headset unit, follow the directions below. Note: The
cradle/transmitter on the WHP141 is not a recharging cradle, although
you may place the headset in the cradle during recharging.
Follow these steps to recharge the NiMH rechargeable batteries.
1. Make sure the ON/OFF switch (2), located on the right headphone,
is in the OFF position.
2. Connect the AC/DC main power adapter to the DC IN power
supply socket (11), located on the back of the cradle/transmitter.
3. Plug the adapter into an electrical outlet.
4. Connect the charging cable (10), located on the back of the
cradle/transmitter to the recharging input (3), located on the right
headphone. The headphones can either be placed in the
cradle/transmitter or placed next to the unit. If the headphones are
connected correctly, the charging LED indicator light on the
cradle/transmitter (8) illuminate.

Usually Lithium-Ion batteries have a Memory effect, ie. the battery should be 100% consumed then only recharged. If the battery is only 40% used and recharged then the battery will give you only 40% of it's total charge. The battery starts showing you empty after it is 40% consumed even it was 100% charged. Now there is solution for this-Drain battery upto full, store it in a cool place like Frigde then charge it full then again use it upto last. Repeat this procedure for 2-3 times.Your battery should come to normal state. Also check the charging current of the charger.The charger might also be faulty.
