How do you know when the amp is fully charged?

hi, purchased Pignose yesterday but unfortunately I burned the adapter, I immediately bought another one here in Italy, I loaded it all night, seems to load but there is no green light, why? but when it is attached to the wall the light is always red

When you plug it into the wall, if it is fully charged then the light on the power plug is green. I believe that as the battery gets low as you are playing it, then the power light on the front of the amp changes color, not totally sure of that. The solution is to just keep it charged at all times, so you know you always have a full battery.

I generally use it plugged into a 120v line, rather than relying on the battery solely. It has a finite life, which is extended when it stays fully charged. It will die eventually, just from sitting, which will prevent the amp from functioning even when plugged in, because the line current passes through the battery on the way to the amp. If you have any doubt about the battery charge level, it's fairly easy to take off the back and check it with a battery tester. If the battery is reading, say 3.8 volts after charging when not plugged in, it's time for a new one, which is available from most battery stores for a lot less than Gorilla/Pignose charges...

There's a light on the charger that is Red when it's charging and Green when it's finished. Sherri is right - you should keep it on the charger whenever you're not using it. The Hog uses lead-acid batteries, which like to be kept fully charged like a car battery.

the charger that comes with it is automatic when its charged it stops charging it has a red light that goes green when charged

There are some LED lights on the unit which let u know when it's fully charged but if u just leave it in your car the charge runs out so you should check it every week or so and top it up if it needs it

When charging is complete, the unit stops and displays how much current was delivered to the battery. In this state, it draws about 60mA.

I charged mine on 2 amp automatic battery charger. It was nearly fully charged when I received it.

When the light turns red; it's charging. When the light goes off; it's fully charged. Hope that helps.

The automatic setting ... it will indicate when the battery is fully charged. Hope this is helpful.

Simply plug the USB cable into the device and the other end into the USB port on your computer and it will light up to indicate that it is charging and the light will let you know when it is fully charged....easy and charges fully in about 4 hours....

I haven't had to charge mine in a while, by my recollection is that when you plug in the charge a light on the side will be read (uncharged) and will turn green when the device is fully charged.

The red light should be on whenever the amplifier is plugged in. The manufacturer should have a way to troubleshoot (instructions, website, customer service) to figure out what's wrong. Saludos

It indicates that it is actually charging. When the lighting bolt is gone and the "battery" icon is all green it is fully charged.

Yes. Fully charged, the battery box holds a 60 amp-hour charge @ 12VDC or 6 amp-hour @ 120VAC. If your amplifiers consume 250W @ 120VAC, thats a little over 2 amps x 2 = 4 amps x 12 minutes = 48 amp-minutes or 0.8 amp-hour. Theoretically your amplifiers will work for 7.5 hours. Realistically, something less than 7.5 hours, because of line loss, resistive heating, battery age, etc.

I havent noticed any overcharging issues with mine. It indicates when each battery is fully charged.

Push in the rubber button on the side. If it doesn't start, check if the charge cord is charging it--it may not have a full charge yet.

When I charge I am able to see each LED glow before it becomes fully lit. When all 4 are lit, it is fully charged.

sir, i am confused by your statement. i would verify the battery is being charged. since it is DC current a simple multimeter will provide this information.i purchased this battery for a back up security system. the system becomes active in the event of a power loss.
