Ours is just over 4 yrs old and never had any trouble but it hasn't had heavy use specially in the first couple of years.

I tried charging my coil last night together with the headphones and controller .. I couldn't get the coil to charge at all .. I then swapped leads and the coil charged fine .. One of the three heads on the charger has just stopped working

Did you try swapping the lead heads about?

Tried a new battery in my 13" coil and it worked cant believe it the other battery must have been faulty.
And the 9 " coil is working I just went back to v2 and every thing is working.

Mine did exactly the same. Thought i had a faulty 13" Coil a few months back and was getting very annoyed. Then in a moment of genius i swapped the USB lead over to another one and it started charging fine and has been charging great ever since, although the coil has no developed another problem...but thats a different story.
