Overcharged batteries?

Hi there,
I have been having some issues with a set of 10.8V, 800mAh Ni-MH batteries that are used in a Kondo KHR-3HV. The batteries are fully charged (using the smart charger that came with the kit) but when they are plugged into the bot, the power LED's flash and then nothing. I have checked the voltage of the batteries to be about 12.2V, which I think might mean they are overcharged.
Does the KHR-3HV have overcharge protection? If so, that's likely what's causing the problem.

Thanks!

Have you checked that it works with another battery or this one previously ?
