| idk about the one without lights, but the one that does light might just need to be trimmed in so play with the stick and trim settings a little

| Their rating of up to 24V is a lie! don't trust it!!
It sounds like they're busted. You can send them back and they'll fix them. Moral of the story, don't run high volts. We had problems with anything over 14V on those. Also, don't forget that those packs are 16.5 NOMINAL. So when they're all charged up, they're more like 17.5. | |
