Just plugged our battery in the charger and yes, the red light is on. The trick is to not over charge. I try to plug it in where I can see it. I think they recommend not more than 8 hours. We have replaced the original batteries on two older sweepers. Replacement batteries work fine.

I've been getting about 15 or 20 minutes run time on mine. I just use it for blowing off our patio at our apartment and takes about 4 or 5 min. So I'm only charging it once every 2 or 3 weeks. I think it does an awesome job. Clay Messer, Dawsonville,Ga

Hard to determine. My wife and I use the same unit with different brushes three times a day. There has never been an instant where it wasn't fully charged. However we are in the habit of putting it back in the charger after each use. We have only taken it on an overnight trip once and it remained fully charged.

I have not timed it, but I think 6-8 hours is sufficient. Two lithium batteries came with mine so I always have two charged and ready to go. I bought the weed whacker- leafblower combo. They work wonderfully for small jobs that you do often. Very pleased with them.

I charged mine up about 6wks.ago used the cleaning brush today for about 15 minutes when I got thru it showed no signs of needing recharging that's pretty good in my opinion.

Hi ... my charge lasts for several days and that is after using this little appliance in my 4,000 sq ft home ... it is great thus far ... but I have only had it for about two weeks ... I highly recommend this product. It is great ... especially on hard wood surfaces ... great picking up pet hair ... I love it thus far!!!!! I think that one should use it until the charge expires ... then recharge it ... don't keep it charging all of the time ... charge it ... use it until it expires ... then recharge it. DO NOT KEEP IT PLUGGED IN ...

I don't know. I just went and checked mine was has been plugged in for the past 3 days and the light is red. So I took it out of the charger and put it in the Sweeper.

Depends on if u run it until empty (25-30 min). Hardly ever happens with me. But completely un-charged to full charge is about 3 hours. Vacuuming front foyer, main hall, guest bedroom, bathroom and kitchen can be done on less than a charge. That's the downstairs of a 2800 square foot lake house with two beach going, mud going, and water going labs. We love our cordless motor head dyson even more than our 10 year old corded animal and six year old ball animal. We love those VAC's also. 10 year old Vac does the upstairs lair of the cats. Boat and car are a snap with cordless. Stairs are easy with 9 pound machine. Hank

Yes, through Amazon for only $12 or $13 or so. Did you get a charger when you got your swivel sweeper? You should have received on with it. That would enable you to recharge it. It never hurts to have 2 batteries. I keep one on the charger until I need it then I put th dead one in the charger and install the newly charged one. Works great - you never have any down time. Your original battery must have been very old to go out so soon. Even ones that have never been used can go dead if they haven't been used in a long time. If you didn't receive a charger with your sweeper you might check through Amazon to see if you can purchase one. Good luck! Yes, through Amazon for only $12 or $13 or so.

I leave the batt on charge. Have had the unit for about 5 months and have noted no degradation. Unit is " lightly" utilized as sweeper for 40x20 patio and 60 foot walkway.

It depends on how long you're gonna to use it or it may just a personally issue since I seldom do the household work. 5 mins is fine for me and the power can only keep for around 10 mins (fully charged) anyway. So it may not brother others. Besides, it's not very helpful on cleaning the carpet. Other material is ok though.

Charger's AC plug into receptacle (one usually on the wall), and the other DC end to the back side of the sweeper. When properly connected red light comes on. Manual says this red light does not go off when fully charged. This is unusual.

The 10 hour charger that comes with it takes too long. There is no need to wait until the battery is depleted. I bought the $40 30 minute charger and it speeds up the charging process, so for smaller yards like mine I can quick charge it in like 10 or 15 minutes and finish my job.

The sweepers are the size of a Swiffer they each have one rechargeable battery. They were gifts and they love them. the only thing is the battery rechargeable battery needs to be replace every 2 years.

you have to plug a cord from the wall to the unit. Be in mind the battery dose not last long and I hade to keep my sweeper pluged in all the time to have enough juice for one area. You can sweep on the low nap rugs, That is what I used it for

It seems to charge in about an hour, but I haven't timed it. It lasts about 15 minutes, maybe 20 before it starts to slow down. That's all I expected and all I need. If I had a large area and needed 30-40 minutes, I stick with this unit and just buy a second battery. Remember, its light, nimble..meaning you can hold it in one hand and bend your arm upside down and backwards as the the blower is a wand. Dry or slighty damp leaves its perfect. Wet soggy leaves, forget it.
