How long does it need to charge fully?

Upon receiving the baton, I initially charged it for 3 hours. I then tested the flashlight to see just how bright it was. Brightness is obviously more apparent at night. I then activated the "Stun" button and determined by the sound generated by the spark that it was fully charged. It would be important to note that one should deplete the battery to the point where it would be apparent that the flashlight is considerablly dim and that the "spark" barely arcing. Then re-charge for no more than 5 hours.

8 to 9 hrs the first time. After that it depends on how much it is being used. After initial charge I usually plug it for about an hour.

The first time you charge it, it will take about eight hours of uninterrupted charging. After the first full charge, it won't take that long.

Leave it in the charger as long as you want and it won't hurt the battery. It takes about 9 hours to fully charge. Therefore, I suggest you have two batteries.

You use the USB charger and charge it when It is connected to your computer. I think it's supposed to have about 18 hours of charge when fully charged.

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've never timed it, but it seems to be only a couple of hours to go from dead to full charge. Keep in mind this device can be used while charging which will likely slow the charge down.

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.

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

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

Dear Sir or Madam, it usually takes 7-8 hours to fully charge the power bank if you use the 5V~2A adapter. if you use 5V~1A adapter, you may need to take about 13 hours to charge fully. Thanks.

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

Hi Robert, I don't remember exactly how long it took to charge, but I have had mine for over a year now and haven't had to recharge yet. I don't use it a lot, but it's ready when I need it.

Mine had a partial charge so I can't be sure, but I think about 4 hrs to fully charge.

I believe, I charged this new battery for approximately 8 hours before the first use. Now, it takes, perhaps 1-3 hours to fully charge. It's been a good battery...much better than the OEM.

I own 2 e280s, one of them since last July. I have found that it takes about 3 1/4 hours to charge fully. However I use a seperate charger to charge mine. I do not charge from my computer. I get between 15-22 hours on a charge.

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