Charging says to charge a 12 hour period before 1st use...there is no indication of when it is fully charged so, how do you know when to unplug it? Then it says to charge at least one time every 3 weeks. Still don't know when it's fully charged.

Just charge it for eight hours and it will be fully charged. There is no indicator light. There are some helpful videos on YouTube

No it won't charge. The first time that you charge it's going to require a full charge 6 plus hours!

How long are you letting it charge for? I let it charge for a few hrs the first time, since then I have rarely had to charge it. Try letting it be charged for hrs if you haven't yet...if that fails to make a difference, or if you've already done this, I'd attempt to return the item.

8 to 9 hrs the first time. After that it depends on how much it is being used. After initial charge I usually plug it for about an hour.

You can use it right out the box, but I would estimate 2-3 hours to be fully charged. While its charging the light blinks and when fully charged it will turn off. Hope that helps...

I re-charge until the green light goes off. This is only when I know I'm going to need it soon. Obviously if it will be weeks or months before needing it, I don't re-charge.

I think it takes 3 or 4 hours to charge completely. I don't wait on it. I use it in my living room & kitchen, then put it back on the charger until the next day.

The instructions tell you how long to charge it initially. I've only recharged it once since then.

The first time you charge it, it will take about eight hours of uninterrupted charging. After the first full charge, it won't take that long.

No - Max Charge Time is 30 Hours .... per the manual instructions which advises to NOT leave plugged in all the time. And, the light should be charged for 24 Hours minimum with each charge cycle. So - you should not do any charging until the indicator light changes from green to red .... then charge it for 24 Hours Minimum and 30 Hours Maximum.

The first time for full charging is close to 12 hours, regular charging after that will be one our or less

How long you have to charge it depends on the charger you are using. I use a wall plug charger and I would give it at least 8 hours for a full charge. On a computer, I would say at least all night or more. I have had mine in my locker at work for weeks and it never lost it's charge and still charged my phone.

There is no way to know when it is totally charged. I just charged it up overnight and it held a charge for a long time.

From what I read it takes about 4 full hours... another way to tell if unit is fully charged is to look at light on the plug. When you first plug charger in it will turn from green to red, then will be green after it is fully charged. Just make sure to do as the instructions say and not leave charger plugged in for more than 24 hours.

I found the charging time to be about a 1.5 to 2 hours. There is a red/orange light that illuminates when you first plug it in. It will go out when it is fully charged.

Not sure where I originally got this info, but for years I've sworn by a complete first charge followed by a complete discharge, followed by another complete second charge (and keeping the machine turned off during at least the first exercise). All future use minimizing actual battery usage, so basically keep it plugged in whenever possible or at least charging every night. My 3 yr old LG cell phone still gets 3-4 days/charge (vs 5-6 days brand new) and 4 yr old laptop gets 2 hrs (vs 4 hrs brand new)...Hope this helps.

It has been charging 23 hours, still the lights are blinking.... Probably it is going to be over soon. I am now fully charging for the first timeUpdate! - it has just finished charging. SO, it took almost 24 hours to be fully charged for the first time.
