How long does it take for the replacement battery to charge ?

My plan was to let it charge for 24 hours, but it seemed to work right away. I ended up forgetting about my plan and using it even before it had charged for 24 hours, and it worked fine. I have had this for a few months now with no problems. I have even had the phone with me for several hours while being on call for work, and it has stayed charged.

I put the phone on the charger for 4 hours-then when I went to bed I took it off the charger, and it's worked perfectly for more than 6 months. Hope this helps-lisa h.

I just charged it as I would any new phone for at least 16 hours and it works just fine.

probably a couple of hours if substantially discharged. The batteries I'm charging are not totally discharged - I just top them off every couple of weeks to keep them fully charged and it takes 15 - 30 min.

Less then an hour. However, I never stood there to check for every 5 minutes to know exactly, but when I am checking back in an hour the charge is completed. I am actually very pleased with this. I got a second battery also that I am charging when the one in the camera is toward its end...

No. It should take about double the time than the original battery. Are you using the original charger? Some chargers deliver very low current so it takes longer to charge.

Sorry I'm not sure maybe an hour. Since I've had I have not needed to charge it again.

I haven't actually timed it but I guess it takes between 2 to 3 hours. It depends on if you are using it while charging.

It can take between one and a half to two hours to charge the battery if charged when about 15% of the charge remains. I usually do not let mine completely run out but based on the time it takes for 85% of the battery to charge, I would estimate two hours and twenty minutes to two and a half hours for a full charge.

Are you getting the message at the control panel that the battery is charging? I think my new battery took 2 or 3 days to fully charge. Give it another two days on your battery.

not very long at all..I only charged it about 2 hours and it was ready to go.

I am not sure, but I had it running for about 2.5 hours straight. Then, I did recharge it when I got home, but it did not take long to charge.

Probably about 1/2 hour to an hour. There is an indicator on the charger when fully charged.

I normally charge it overnight, but if I had to guess, it's about 3-5 hours. However, the length of it being able to charge other things far surpasses three hours.

I charged it overnight. Don't know how long it takes for it to start working.

I bought my battery as a replacement and I charge it about about every four days. I haven't had a battery strictly as a backup

I know this sounds stupid but make sure the battery is inserted properly and that it is in all the way. My charge time has been 10-20 minutes. My original battery charge lasted 6 months.

Perhaps an hour when I got it to charge it to a full charge and the battery last about 6 hours until next charge.

It seems to only take a few hours. I plug it in overnight and it's charged in the morning.
