How much delay to load? How long does the battery charge?

1- I had little to no delay. 2- I ran the battery dead and just charged over night but I think it will charge in about 4 hrs

I saw no delay at all. Battery is amazing, I have gone a month without charging and I use it every day.

I have one working, battery holds up fine and is not an issue. The issue is the usb distance, I finally used a usb hub and it started working fine. When plug direct in usb I had problems.

It probably took about two hours for the battery to fully charge. I have used it off-and-on for maybe an hour a night for two weeks. The battery is still going strong. The unit goes to sleep after 15 minutes of non-use to save battery. Hope that helps.

I have used mine more than 30 times between charges without a problem. I have never had the battery run low so I do not really know how long it takes to charge. I just charge it after it has been more than a week or two since I used it.

never timed it, but usually i charge at about 50-25% available power and seems like it takes several hours--It just leave it in charger in the AM and remove later in afternoon..Sorry not exact..

You should be able to turn the computer on as soon as it's plugged in, but in my experience it takes about an hour to fully charge.

Takes about 1.2 hours at a 1.0A rate, higher would be shorter but shortens battery life.

Brandy, It takes maybe 30-60 mins to fully charge. It died on me the other day, so I just charged it for about 10 mins, just to be able to finish my other leg, and it did great. No, you can't use it while it's plugged in.

It does not take long. Charge an hour or so before using and leave the second battery charging while you use the first one and then just alternate use of each.

I don't know, there was some charge on the battery when I received it, and I plugged it in and left it, I don't think it took that long. Since then it didn't take long to top off the charge since I hadn't used it yet.

It seems to take a while (hours) but I haven't timed it. My routine is to charge the battery after use or the night before I plan to use the hedger.

Seems a long time to fully charge. Has it always been 12 hours or less in the past?

The battery charges up fairly quickly. Probably from totally dead to fully charged in about 1 hour or so. Once charged, depending on the use (i.e. video, pictures, combination of both, viewing pics, etc), I went a full day without any issues. Safer to top it off at night so you'll not have to worry about it.

I have found there is a slight delay of 1-2 seconds. I turn it on then take a deep breath and I'm good to go.Hope this helps.

I've never really timed it, but it seems to take a couple of hours to charge from fully discharged

Not sure. I let it charge over night but am not sure if it takes that long to really charge it. Sorry

I charged it over night. So I don't know how long it actually took to charge. I do know the charge is good for a few hours of use, though. Sorry i can't be more specific.

Sorry, I've never really timed it. I know it is at least 4 hours, and maybe it is more. But the last computer I used had had a bad battery for so many years, that I had almost forgotten I could ever use a computer that was not plugged in. Not that it matters, but I purposely ordered this computer with Windows 7 because I did not want to use Windows 8 on a computer that was not touch screen. I have had the computer for about a month and haven't had any problems so far, unlike the person who wrote the previous comment.

Typical charge time from fully drained is about 3 hours. If it doesn't clear during that time, the battery is bad. I ordered 2 of these, both had old manufacturing dates, so they are most likely used and were pulled from recycled units. I powered down both servers (2x 2950), installed both batteries, powered up the servers and the ROMB errors were instantly cleared.
