Hello, how are you? You know I dont remember for sure. I'm thinking the original charger had a light that never showed if it was charged(it was always on). I went ahead and bought a fast charger that goes from solid to blinking when charged.

I have one charger that works, one that is toast. When I plug-in the one that works (without a battery in it) the LED comes on green, but flashes red about every half-second or so. If your charger does that, your battery is probably bad. I had one bad battery, and 1 bad charger, and I was going crazy till I connected with someone who had working chargers and batteries so I could do some tests. Hope that helps.

Sounds vaguely familiar. If you press the button, does the light turn on at all? Have you tried removing the batteries, waiting a few moments, then reinstalling the batteries? If it's the problem I think it is, I think it's the light's circuitry going into a protection mode. When you charge the light, do you plug the charger cable into power source, then plug the mini-USB plug into the light? Or do you connect the light to the cable first, then connect the cable to a power source? If the former, then I suggest switching to the latter to avoid the problem. I suspect it's an issue of the powered cable touching part of the light it shouldn't if you're not inserting it "cleanly" into the charging port, tripping a protection mode.

That was one of the problems... nothing appeared to indicate it was actually charging. So I just made sure I had it plugged into a good socket and let it charge overnight... But the next day it still didn't work, so I returned it.

Mine worked great. I did charge it when I first got it, but it also worked right away.

Mine has been charging for 6 hours and still red, not sure what to do...Only time I saw green light was when I first put the batteries on the charger while still unplugged. I thought this was odd.

My charger's light has long ago refused to turn on when charging. The Gold Cells charge just fine in my very old charger, but the red light doesn't come on.

That is my question as well. The charger keeps stalling, and I have to plug it in over and over again, but it only works for a few minutes (or less). Sorry to add this as an "answer" since it doesn't help.

Need more info - like was it plugged in when the screen went dark?.. Have you tried plugging it in to be recharged to see if the green battery lights up? (May have to push the power on button momentarily while charger is plugged in).. If "yes" does it hold a charge and have you tried to turn it on while plugged in?.. If it's a battery or a tablet issue it need a tech - it could possibly be a charger issue.. Contact the factory, who knows they may stand behind their product and repair/replace - depending on many factors..

Gosh. I wish I had an answer for you. Mine never worked. The blue light came on and that was it. I never got the opportunity to try it out. I tried different chargers thinking my charger was bad. Truthfully, the thing is a piece of junk.

I would conclude that the charger is defective. I used mine yesterday and the lights worked correctly.

Well I ordered new one & tried without charging it but still it was working, & I charged after that & was working perfect.If you tried for 18 hrs, than check your charger. May something wrong with it.

Same thing has happened to me. What I did was wait and tried again, held power button down. I also made sure charge was full. When u plug in charger there is a small red light. Be worried if the red light doesn't show

Can't tell if you have the same problem but a note to all owners: After using my mower I plugged in the charger but the charger light stayed green even though the battery was discharged. Contacted Customer Service, who said take it to a repair shop. THEN, I read, in very fine print, that the light is green if charged OR if disconnected. So, I jiggled the charger plug (at the mower) and the light changed to red. Problem solved.

Are you sure the charger works? If it's charged it should start. That happened to us. WE used an old NOkia charger from a previous phone, and it charged up.

The red light should turn on. Perhaps you don't have it set well? That happened to me. It took some twisting and turning to get the light to come on. Check the phone. It should show the phone charging if it is working properly.
