Hello,
I have approx. a two year old Uniden Powermax5.8 cordless phone with 2 phones and bases. Most recently both of the cordless phones are not holding charges for more that maybe 20-25 minutes. I'm going out tomorrow to buy 1 replacement battery. I'm an electrician and familiar with multimeters. My question is: I would like to use my meter to check the charging capacity of the phone base. What setting should I use on meter (ACV or DCV) and what output range should the base be putting out?
Mine came with Nickel-Metal Hydrides. You can find them on the web.
Have the same problem. seems the handset is too warm, showing too fast a charge rate for the battery ( methinks ) even with a replacement battery. havent checked current, charge voltage yet, but this is a GREAT phone, as phones go...so worth figuring out.
any chance it came originally with lithium batteries, rather than nkms?
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
1.Check that the base unit's AC adapter is plugged into the both the base unit and electrical outlet firmly.
2.Wipe the base unit's handset holder's connectors and the connectors on the bottom of the handset with a soft cloth/rag or pencil eraser to remove any loose dust and dirt from the metal connectors.
