How long should it take to fully charge this device from a nearly dead status?

I tested mine yesterday, It was a 1 bar and it took 3 hours to come to full charge. Hope this help you with a guideline.

I haven't monitored to see exactly how long it takes to charge from dead to full charge, but I think 8-10 hours should be enough.

from a dead pack, I use my iPhone 5s charger and it takes roughly 6-7 hours

I tend to plug it in over night, but should fully charge in three to four hours.

I'm sorry to hear that. Mine seems to be working fine. I've used mine for more than 6 minutes. Make sure it is fully charged before using it.

On the manual, it states you should charge it for 4-6 hours, but I was able to get full charge within 3 hours.

Hmm - I don't know that I've ever really checked the amount of time it takes to go from completely dead to a full charge. I normally just plug it in to an outlet and leave it for an hour or two and then it's good to go. You can also use the USB to charge it on your computer - which is nice. It's really a nice little charger - I use it all the time on trips, or if I know I'm going to be away from the house all day I'll keep it in my pocket just as a safety measure in case my phone battery dies.

I'd start with a new battery....and since it has a memory you will need to let it run all the down in order to get a full charge and then leave on the charger about 3 hours maximum time.

Mine was totally uncharged and I plugged it in and started using .. It was ok .. I dont know about indefinitely but certainly for those 10 minutes, it worked without a hitch.

I am not really sure, i have a total of 3 batteries, so when/if one goes dead, i just pop it in the charger and it stays till i need it again. My android phone takes a while to charge, even on its own w/o any apps running. My guess it takes about 3 hours from completely dead to charge.

It sounds like something may be defective or the battery is dying out, as it should only take a couple hours to charge. I cannot recall it taking more than hours. You may want to use a power block instead of a computer to charge it to make sure the problem isn't with say a weak laptop battery.

It would take an empty to 20% in about an hour, to get full charge would take longer. I have not try that yet.

I haven't charged it from being completely dead, but usually just a few 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)

Regina, that's a good question. The info sheet that came with the device claimed I think 150 hrs. of continuous use, which seemed like a misprint to me. When I plug the charger in the blue light comes on but goes out within about 5 minutes, which may mean it's charged. I think I'll wait until it runs out to learn the answer as I can always go back to the onscreen keyboard while it charges. You might ask someone who's owned it longer. Charles

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

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
