    Hello
    I have a raleigh impulse ir hs electric bike.
    I have a problem with charging the battery
    I bought a charger because the old one was damaged by a fall :)
    Exactly a 36V 540Wh battery for 4 days
    Normally the charger glowed red after being charged glowed green
    The new charger starts flashing red and after about a minute it switches to green.
    I left it for 5 hours and the battery is not charging,
    I would like to add that the battery has about 30% charge, it is not discharged to 0%.
    Help plzzzz? I bought the wrong charger?

    Do you have the housings of both chargers in front of you? Compare the voltage values (if too low, you will not charge) and the output currents (responsible for the charging time). How can you measure it if the voltage coming out of the charger is around 44V. If it's below 36, you surely won't be able to charge. It will be difficult to tell you why it is not charging without seeing the charger. PS you didn't get the polarity wrong?

    Hmmm, there is only one connection option. Here is a photo of the plug and a description of the new charger. I do not have the old one because it was massacred.
    This is what I can say for these moments. If there are any suggestions, I'll try to get it right quickly.

    Determine the output voltage, compare if the corresponding values match the original one (search for it by the model). I found the same charger with a different DC plug and a higher output voltage of 43.8V. we will not move on without taking measurements. Maybe the charger is OK and the voltage is not reaching the battery. Measure everything and write conclusions.

    In answer to the question, 42 V outgoing voltage

    Measure which pins in the plug from the power supply do you have voltage and what? Also measure the voltage in which "holes" in the socket you have the battery voltage. They are numbered.

    I don't understand, since it fell, you just probably broken. Maybe it can be repaired, glued.
    Maybe you can at least see the parameters and on which pins what is connected.

    In the power supply, 1-3 and 3-4. I'll check the batteries tomorrow. AND

    Measure and give voltage to 1-2, 1-3, etc. (each with each) both in the charger and the power supply. What were you suggesting when buying this one and not another. I mean, the seller advised you, is it for your bike model, etc.? From the previous charger you do not have either a housing or electronics? The battery had less than 30% charge before being charged for the first time?

    Unfortunately I do not have. I had my bike on the balcony on the 3rd floor; / It fell from a considerable height; / good that it did not fly over someone's head. Now I work in the basement for safety. I will measure all the configurations and give it when I come back from work. Thanks

    Hello, do you have any information about these pins from the power supply? what does 1-3 and 3-4 mean?
    Best regards.

    I sent the batteries back to the service that deals with batteries. After putting on the foot adapter, everything is fine. Greetings

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around a charging issue with a Raleigh Impulse IR HS electric bike's 36V 540Wh battery after the original charger was damaged. The user reports that the new charger flashes red and then turns green without charging the battery, which still has about 30% charge. Participants suggest checking the output voltage of the new charger, comparing it to the original charger's specifications, and measuring the voltage at various points in the charging system. The user later confirms that the output voltage of the new charger is 42V. Ultimately, the user resolves the issue by sending the battery to a service for repair, which involved using a foot adapter.
