Well i have a 6 volt battery pack from www.onlybatterypacks.com, its the 5cell one seen here http://www.onlybatterypacks.com/showitem.asp?ItemID=10005.2.

The thing is, i lost the original charger for it, that one always charged it. I go over to my LHS to buy a 6v battery charger, but when i plug it in it doesn't charge. No light comes on when I plug it into the charger like it should. and yes, i made sure the polarity is correct.

Due to this, my beloved maxx has seen 2 WHOLE DAYS of down time, makes me wanna cry. :(
 
Neither of the two links worked to your batteries. Are these NiMH batteries or NiCD batteries? Is the charger the correct type of charger for the type of battereis? What is the current voltage on your batteries? Is the output on the battery charger too high to charge your batteries?
 
What is the output of the charger in mah? If it is a wall charger it could take up to about 12 hours to charge the pack. If the charger has an indicator light and it is not going ON, then you probably have either a bad charger or pack.
Lesson to be learned: " Never Lose Your Charger" :doh:
