Yes, in my experience that means the batteries are bad news, and should be nowhere near the working 280c. You can find Duo batteries on eBay fairly regularly. Good luck.

It will not start up with the batteries in place. If I remove the
battery and plug in the adapter, it starts up just fine. If I plug
either battery in while it is running, it suddenly stops after a few
seconds. I tried letting the batteries charge for an hour or two, but
it would still not start with the batteries in.

Does this indicate that the batteries are the problem?

Thanks in advance.
