Titanium M-8800 question

[Bluebizzer]

My M-8800 charger and 8 eneloop batteries from batteyjunction came yesterday (just in time for x-mas!) took it all out, and put the batteries in to check them out. Was showing 2 bars on all of them.

I put them in refresh mode, and left it over night, when I got up today all but 2 were filled with the last bar (the full F bar) flashing. The booklet says that when full the F bar will light up, but in another part it says if you put batteries in and the full bar is flashing it means bad batteries and will stop charging.

Eventually they all went like this, and I left it for another hour, and still all on flashing F bar. Now I"m confused, it says if there bad it will flash full and stop charging, but they started as 2 bars and charged till the point where its flashing the F bar. When full it says it will light up, which I assumed ment go solid not flash, but they just kept flashing.

Can anyone with an M-8800 charger tell me what their's does when fully charged?

As long as the last bar with the F flashes, it is in charging mode.

The cells don't finish all at the same time, charging channels are independant. I also used the refreshing on all my cells once, it can take quite a long time until the last cell has finished...

I provided some details on how to read the M-8800's LCD readout in post number 13 in this thread:
