To Pete in Long Beach: From your description, I'd say the power outage has blown your built-in charger (i.e. the CSB/Control Shaft Base). If so, the CSB is unable to charge either of the battery packs that are attached, but sufficient power is still passing through the CSB to light the LEDs. Consequently, the front battery pack has already over-discharged, thus giving a red LED. While the rear LED is solid green it is not actually recharging the pack.

It is possible to test if the CSB is working. It is unlikely the CSB can be repaired, but maybe someone else on Segway Chat can help you with that...and also with your front battery.
