How long does it take to recharge the batteries? Does the charge last longer than other batteries?

And to answer the charge question they take 4+ hours or so to charge with this charger (which wasn't a great charger) I now use an efest ELUC charger it was $35 and it charges a standard 18650 in about 40 min to an hour

Takes a while to charge, so i just let it charge at night. But the good is they stay charged for a long time. My husband charged over a week ago. he barley uses them but we went fishing and the light they are used for worked and bright.

I no longer use these ... I used them at first in a vaporizer but the regulated batteries would not output high enough to heat the coil quickly. The batteries last longer than an imr18650 that is the standard high output 2000mah but that's because these seem to output at a lower wattage or something like that... these are low output longer life .. but for Vaping I'd stick to a Sony or Santo imr18650 high drain

Hi... It takes up to 30 minutes when I use the discharge/charge sequence. Amazing battery.

I charged it over night. So I don't know how long it actually took to charge. I do know the charge is good for a few hours of use, though. Sorry i can't be more specific.

9 to 10 hours depending on setting and batteries used. I usually get at least 9 hours using rechargeable batteries.

yes, it takes about 3hrs to recharge after an initial 5hr primary charge. works good.

probably a couple of hours if substantially discharged. The batteries I'm charging are not totally discharged - I just top them off every couple of weeks to keep them fully charged and it takes 15 - 30 min.

Ours took 20 min to charge. It last about 30 min if u don't have LED lights on. If u put LED lights on it uses more of battery. I've bought two at different times. My kids love it as well as my husband:) I would buy again.

It takea a while to charge about 3hr. I keep 2 charge at all times. The replacement batteries are really good.

I recharge about 1-2 weeks. I wait until the battery drains completely and it basically shuts down on me. Then I recharge fully. It's a lot longer than every few days.

One takes about 4 or 5 hours I have a charger for every battery speeds things up. It's a long wait but the fun you have with them is worth it.

The battery that came with it lasted about 7 hours. I also bought re chargeable batteries and a charger. They seem to last about 8 hours.

Not exactly sure how long it takes. It comes with two batteries so I can get a day out of the one while the other is charging and the next day I just switch batteries. The battery holds a charge for the entire day and then some.

About a half hour. Then the charge lasts about 10 minutes. Purchase multiple batteries!

I just got two of these batteries about how long does it take to charge them. Also do you use a standalone chargers.

The original batteries charge lasted about 3 1/2 hrs. The replacement batteries charge last 1- 1 1/2 hrs. Not worth the price.

I only have one set of 1200ma batteries. I now only purchase the 2000ma size. But to answer your question, I believe the charge time depends upon how discharged they are but normally it takes me about 3-4 hours. I just plug them into the wall and go on with my computer work and when I stop for a break they are usually done charging. The 2000 ma ones are ~67% more capacity so get those if is convenient. Not much extra cost either. Hope this helps...

Depending upon the actual age of the battery, the recharge period may take about 4+ hours or so. Unfortunately, these batteries do not last long at all and their 'charge hold' capacity greatly diminishes over time. Even with those batteries which I have labeled as 'good', I am only able to blow the leaves off half of my driveway before the battery goes dead.
