Does this wall charger glow brightly when in use? I am looking for a charger for my bedroom, and I don't want any light coming from it ideally.

Anytime you have a glowing light on something (i.e my kindle fire charging) just cut a small piece of black electrical tape and cover it. I do this for all my annoying glowing lights. I had a razer mouse which I took apart and pulled out the light bulb. I didn't need a mouse scaring me at night!

If it has a light, all you have to do is put a little bit of electrical tape over it. Been there done that...Modem, router, etc. Hate that, too! ;)

It's pretty dim. The light diode is pretty small. It doesn't even the up the area around the outlet it's plugged into.

Yes, there's a dim blue light at the bottom of the charger when you're looking at the label. Most people miss it probably because it's dim and not on the face of the label. I hate super bright LED lights too. But a dim light on the same face as the USB ports is helpful.

Some matter of fact...no ... a very dim blue light is visible... Not intrusive at all...

It has a blue light but it is very dim. I don't think it would be a problem

Specifically, I don't know how long, but, the cool thing about this charger is it turns off when it's fully charged, that is, the lights don't flash any more. So, plug it in to charge, and lights flash on and off when charging --- when they stop flashing, it's done. Usually about an hour or so when fully dead. Also, leaving it plugged into the wall overnight hasn't affected it in any way. Hope that helps.

The light is supposed to be lit when charging. It might have a faulty or loose bulb. If it charges, I wouldn't worry about the light.

That's a good question. It stays on all the time, and seems to be indicative of whether the charger itself is getting power, not whether your device is fully charged. I have not been able to decipher whether it actually stops sending power to your device when the device is charged, so for that reason, would not buy it if that's the most important feature to you. However, it could work great for a night light for travel!

it lights up when plugged in, even if not being used. you can press button and turn off to save energy. have several, and love them

I believe the instruction say the light should not be operating during the charging cycle (USB cable plugged in). I remove the light from the mounting bracket when I get home and charge it in my house during the evening, that way it is fresh for the next day. I use the light on my commute about 30 minutes a day on the way home at night. I usually charge it up after 3 uses, but I suspect I could go longer.

It will turn green after you take it off the charger and it will not glow constantly. It will give you a vocal warning when the battery is low.

The LED's can not be disabled or dimmed. However, I feel they are great to have so that you know there is a connection and your device is charging. I use the charger on a desk next to my bed, and even with the lights in the room off, I do not notice any light from the LED's unless I look right at them. So at least for me, they do not disturb me.

The device won't turn on if it is plugged into the charger. Also, the light stays on as long as the charger is plugged into the device and the wall plug. Guess the former is sort of a safety feature, to make sure people don't use the device while it is connected to the charger.

I would say, yes. When charge it has a bright blue light. When done the light goes out, also note the heat from charge stops once the light turns off.

Does have a light on it while it is charging doesn't shine much light off( it is red) but enough to be able to see it it you had it unplugged it would make a strong night light not sure how long

Yes, This is a good working charger, I also got a new Battery I don't think the light goes off when charged, just use the recomended time listed for your battery.

I just tried it and yes it is, especially if you aim the light towards the wall. It illuminates a bright circle of light over a book or needlework but when you adjust the flexible arm to point the light at the wall, the light spreads out nicely & does a pretty good job as a night light. Thanks for asking that question, I'd not of thought of using it for that purpose or tried it but it works very well that way. ☺

I was having a few problems to when I use a wall outlet type charger, but I find it works perfectly find when I put it into something else with a USB port (examples: HD TV with a USB port, game console, computer desktop or laptop.) so give that a try oh an I'm sure your not doing it wrong it's kind of hard to but make sure you put the small tip into the device an the USB tip into your choice of charging port an the device should turn red when charging. Oh an by the way it do charge on a cell phone charger as well hope this info was helpful.

OK Susie P., so you've used the battery until it is completely exhausted and now it won't recharge, correct? If you have checked to make sure there is power to the charger, the charger light should glow red when no battery is inserted, red while the battery is charging (a couple hours) then green when the battery is fully charged. If the charger glows red and you never get to a green light, then the battery is defective and should be returned for an exchange/refund.

I have 2 of these hooked up via usb cable, to a double usb wall outlet adapter from staples. works great, and yes, it has a blue glow like the pics.

The light on the unit does not. The charger in the socket lights up green when it's finished charging. Hope that helps.
