my mnke 26650 imr battery displays full charge but doesn't output power in my ecig. why?

sounds like a problem in the ecig. to me. test the battery with a meter and you'll know for sure.

Ben, it is probably the type of battery. I had the same problem with a flashlight,and had to get batteries from Hong Kong to get the light to work.

My battery tester works fine. Making sure the battery is laying on the flat metal area than pushing it against the metal wire-like strip should give you a read out. If no action, request a replacement.

I was able to replace my battery. But right now its always blinking on one bar. It seems to be charging now though so I will be patient and let it charge. Hope fully bars will return. When its charging the bars blink right? Mine doesn't do that anymore. @Richard L How did it strip the battery case?

Check all the connections first. Still continues have the battery checked to see if it's holding a charge.

Need more info. Do you have the unit connected to anything else before you hook it up to the battery. If not, you most likely have a short somewhere, in other words, a bad unit. Send it back for a replacement and maybe even think about going up to the next larger size inverter for your needs. Better to have too much than not enough.

Make sure in charge mode by holding "battery" button while radio is off. Should say CHA ON and nimh battery image should be in upper left of display. I haven't had any problems, but the 1000 ma batteries don't last long.

The primary problem is that NiMH batteries do not like to be force-fed/overcharged, andthat is exactly what NiCd "low-end" chargers do: they are basically constant-current"trickle" chargers (low current, takes many hours to charge, then keep feeding thissame charging current even after the NiCd is fully charged). NiCd batteries just shrugoff this excess charging current, but it will eventually "cook" your NiMHs.That said, NiMH will pack much more punch into given size...so if you don't leave it onconstant charge (drain it, charge it overnight, then unplug it once "properly" charged)it should work quite well.Of course if you ditch the crappy little wallwart "charger" and hook it up to a properNiMH charger, it'll work Great!

I think you're using the wrong charge mode to get a real capacity reading. You'll get the correct capacity reading in the Charge/Test mode. Start in that mode then cycle through the display until the screen shows ----- The charger will fully charge the batteries and then switch to discharge mode. At the end of the discharge you'll get the mAh reading instead of the ----- Then the charger will switch back to charge mode. The display will switch to FULL when the cycle is complete. If you just stick the partially charged batteries in the charge mode you'll only get the mAh reading that it took to recharge from that point. I would expect 2000mAh rated batteries to be somewhere near 1900 initially and get closer to 2000 after a few more cycles.

no idea. the computer might not recognize it. i have a feeling thats what happened with mine and thats why i cant get a full charge

Not certain. When running low I plug in for 4 hours and I seem to get a full charge.

It needs a new batttery, or the charger is bad.Check the volt output on charger.

Sounds to me like you may have a defective battery. Only sure way to find out is to try another one or ask a dealer (if you have one in your area) to check it for you. Thats the best I can tell you as this is the first thing you should always check. Its also possible your charger is not up to snuff. Good luck. -js

I would think that it might be the plug-in adaptor since it works with the battery but not the adaptor. try testing the voltage output on the converter with a multimeter.

I had the same problem. I used my I phone charger I also tried pluging it into my computer to charge. I didn't get it to show more than the battery blinking. I also tried new batteries it still did not show a full charge. The radios died after a few mins use.

It may be weak batteries. Do you have the a.c. adapter? That may resolve the problem. I am assuming that you are referring to missing segments in the characters, not missing the entire character. Beyond correcting low battery power, I think your meter is due for servicing by a knowledgeable repair person. Have you contacted Omron about the problem? The may provide a replacement depending on the age of the meter.

From what I understand from reading the owners manual, that indication is the chargers way of telling you that the battery is very discharged and is only at about 25% of its capacity. The LEDs are supposed to blink, not light up solid, as the charger is charging. If there is nothing wrong with the battery, the charge level should start going up after a while and in a few hours, the LEDs should read at 100% (solid, not blinking, red, red, yellow, green LEDs). I hope this helps you Mary! Michael R

My Ipod charges fine on this, the remote works fine. I have had the AC charger plugged in for 24 hours but nothing works if I unplug the AC charger?I assume the IM600 comes with a battry installed - if not where is it?
