How long does it typically take to fully charge a battery? Thank you.

Well I used them in my solar lights, and they work fine, so I wouldn't be able to really answer charge time. I plugged them early in the am, and that night the lights were working fine.

I try and leave on over nite so i don't watch them if i am changing them i need them so i keep some fully charged on standby

That depends somewhat on the charger. I have a very compact Energizer charger (#CHDC8) that will charge 4 AA's in about two hours. Some quick chargers are faster, but I've been told fast charging is not good for the batteries.

It depends on the charge and how much current is pushed through the battery. Faster charging heats the battery, which is not good for it, so you have to balance speed vs lifetime. I use a smart charger (a small LaCrosse) and keep it at the lowest setting, and fully discharged batteries take about 8 hours to charge. I put them in before work and they are ready when I get back.

I have a hi-tech peak detector charger that can safely recharge any good the battery quality NiCd or NiMh in under 15 minutes. Fast charging does not over heat the battery, over charging at any rate does. Good quality charges cost big bucks, but if time is money the at a good investment.

Full charge in about an hour or at the most, 90 minutes. Charge lasts about 3 or 4 days.

Yea, it takes about 46 to 62min for my 3cell battery to be fully charged. So it's pretty fast in charging

I normally charge it overnight so I'm not sure exactly how many hours it takes to give it a full charge. I'd guess about 4 hours, but that's just a guess.

My current charger (output of 600 mAh) charges my battery in about 3 to 3.5 hours; this charger has an output of 350 mAh, therefore I would expect this charger to completely charge your battery in about 5.5 hours.

I usually get a full charge on an empty battery in 4-6 hours. I have two so Irotate them.

I'm not sure how long it takes to fully charge; I've left it charging for up to two days and the charging light never shut off. My guess for how long actually it takes to charge is like half a day or something, but that's pure speculation. And to answer the other question: Yes, as long as you're reasonably careful.

Generally speaking it takes no more than an hour to charge a completely depleted battery. With that in mind, it's good to have more than one battery for your camera.

To fully charge the battery when it has no battery left at all, it takes about 2 hours to get fully charged.

How long did it take you to charge this up to full capacity upon receiving?

Now that I have used it for awhile I can answer that it can take a bit over 24 hours to recharge when you have received the low battery warning. I let mine charge overnight, use it in the morning and then put it back on the charger. By evening it is fully charged.

On a normal battery 6-8 hours. I also have an extra life battery and it charges it overnight! ! I love this charger lol

My battery is a 3.6 950mAh Li-ion and takes approx 3-4 hrs to fully charge. I have 3 batteries; so I am not reliant on just one. I charge one while using the others. Hope this helps.

Barbara it takes 4hrs. + 40min. to charge 4 batteries and half that time for 2. Look at the arrows for where to charge 2 at a time or 4.

Probably an hour for a full charge. I finally had to replace my battery because it would not hold a charge. Pull yours out and see if it is bulged in the middle. If so it is bad.

Haven't really timed it out from drained to full charge, but my best guess would be 30 minutes.... :-) hope this helps God Bless

I haven't really timed it, but it seems to be taking about a day to recharge a pair of AA's. Longer than I expected, but I just replace worn out batteries with ones that are already charged up and then put the dead ones in the charger. Once they are fully charged I put them in a storage box until the next time another pair runs out of juice. Overall I'm very happy with the charger.
