Mine has been plugged in for almost 3 full days and its still blinking. I'm returning it at this point since I don't know if its even at full power

After initial 24 hour charge, I have mine plugged into the socket on the bathroom mirror, only charging when I have the light on during the day, and it hasn't failed brushing my teeth at full power every morning for over a year. I recently read a site recommending not overheating a lithium battery.

The first time, I was surprise when it finally finished. It really takes 24h! My old one doesn't have the charge progress indicator so I assume that I never charged it entirely!

It takes about 4-5 hours from total depletion, but I'm not there monitoring it. It is recommended to charge only when depleted. Some folks leave it plugged in all the time which is not recommended.

The first charge right out of the box may take 24 hours to fullly charge the unit, but after that it would take just a couple of minutes if you put it on the charging stand when finished.

Now that I have used it for awhile I can answer that it can take a bit over 24 hours to recharge when you have received the low battery warning. I let mine charge overnight, use it in the morning and then put it back on the charger. By evening it is fully charged.

Hi Diane L. It takes up to 2 hrs to fully charge and it will hold a charge for up to 5 hours .

I would recommend charging it for between 3-4 hours. There should be a blue indicator light on the side where the power button is that may turn off when its fully charged(if the device is already powered down)

Then there is something wrong with it. It should only take a few hours to fully charge. I don't know any other way other than with the charger it comes with. Sorry

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.

Yeah that's normal. Charge it overnight. That's actually a good sign. A slow charge is better. Same with mine. 6-8 hours.

So far it takes about an hour to charge and it will last for at least 3 hours!

The initial charge is 6-8 hours. how long mine took after that they charge full with in 1-2 hours lasts me like 3/4 of the day

Mine. only took about 2 hours. I think It depends on how much of a charge it has when you get it.

My experience thus far is 3 hour charge capacity. I have no complaints about the quality aspects for the price that I paid. Hope this hels

it must give you like 24 hours of use or more cause i got mines 45 days ago and charged it once ... i have used it like 3-4 times a week

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.

It takes about an hour also to charge your device, be sure to press the white buttum to activate the charge!If it doesn't work after an hour, you should suspect you may got a defect adapter, replace a new adapter and see the result!

I'm not sure how long actually it takes to charge but it does take quite a while or so it seems.try a little bit longer. I hope it does charge for you.

Original charge after purchasing takes several hours. It will "go" quite awhile before needing a full charge (2 hr charge maybe). I have my child charge it on a daily basis. ...45mins.

In my experience it depends on how far it has been discharged. The times I have needed to fully charge it, it usually takes about 2-3 hours.
