I cannot get the battery to recharge. The green light flashes while charging for more than 8 hrs. Battery still not charged. I have cleaned the terminals as recommended by the company, but no luck. I am willing to buy a new battery if I could just find one.

i searched ebay a little bit and found a battery cover/holder. i don’t know whats normally in the leapster l-max - but this holder looks like a 4 x aa battery holder: CLICK

Hi.

  1. you can buy a wall charger (charge the battery connected to the wall socket) and connect to the ipod.
  2. electro Shocks to your battery. You can use a power supply of 5V (for example an AC adapter with this power) and connect with a terminals to the pads of the battery this only has to be for a seconds, otherwise the battery will be burn. after this process you can chek your battery with a multimeter

You plug in the charger to the wall, and then put it into your leapster device.
