I have two Barbolight U04s, purchased about five years ago.
They have not been used for about two years, but have been stored with the batteries separate from the torches.
I've just recharged both batteries in the Barbolight chargers that came with the torches, and both indicate the batteries are fully charged.
However, the torches will just not switch on.
They were working last time I dived with them, have never been flooded or in any way damaged, and have no sign of damage, corrosion or other problems.
I'm new to this site, and have next to zero technical knowledge, so apologies if this is posted in the wrong place, or if there's a stupidly obvious answer to my question.
But any help would be greatly appreciated, as they're the best dive torches I've ever owned and I'd be very sad to lose them, especially now Barbolight is no longer manufacturing.
Thanks in advance.
Matthew
