The batteries were close to full charge, each cell measured 1.3 volts, give or take a little. And the charging supply is set to 14.5 V. So the BAT ERR may be from being full charged, or a bad connection somewhere. I pulled the charger board, unplugged the connector, checked that both sets of contacts showed proper voltage then plugged it back in, then plugged charger board back in. Guess I should have included that in original post. Time to call the guys at Elecraft I guess.
