I purchased a cheap baterry and it turns out it drains the device it charged if left connected for too long. Has this happened to you?

I haven't had that experience yet myself, but I usually don't leave it connected too far past a full charge.

I have never had that issue, I've had mine since last year and it works as described for me. I have had no issues.

Ok, this is a guess (my keyboard only drained once so far). I had the same experience, so trusting the light to be truthful, I assumed the device only charges when it is switched on. Given I had used laptops in the stone age that only charged when turned on, I thought nothing of it at the time. This is not a high spec device, so there is no charging feedback other than the single light. Best of luck.

I left mine plugged in for 24 hours then disconnected it and used it. There was plenty of charge left and I won't plug it in again for a recharge until it slows down.

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.

Mine wroked until after I charged it then it barley trickled any electricity. It might be the battery. These things are pretty much junk and you would be lucky to get a good one.

I've had similar problems with mine since I got it new. Barely keeps a charge and dies out after a couple of uses.

When mine died out on me the other day, I tried to plug it in and use it right away but it didn't work. When i let it charge for 10 minutes I was able to use it plugged in.

It did...it also just crapped out this morning when I was out for a walk. It doesn't want to charge or turn on. I'd keep looking for another option if I were you.

Not in my experience. The device seems to charge just fine while off or on, even while actively playing music. I have never been able to run the battery long enough to go completely dead so I don't know if that is the case with a totally dead battery.

No. My poduct started refusing to hold a charge after only a few months. Amazon facilitated my refund.

Try using Giff Gaff ,it's the cheapest one I found in the uk,you can recharge it at many places.

If the internal battery is drained then unit will not work correctly until the internal battery has some charge. I have tried to plug the unit in to the usb charger after the battery drained but then had to wait some time for the battery to charge before it would work right. I suppose as long as you keep it plugged in to a usb charger all the time then the battery will stay charged and so should work.

Yes. I had the same problem. Do you know what I did? I returned this piece of crap and get a mophie power bank. They're worth the price, trust me!

When I first got mine, I charged it for a least 24 hours. The On/Off switch should function easy to turn the device on/off. I am not sure WHAT is the problem with yours. It very well may be a defected device......?Sorry, Wish you luck...!

My girlfriends did the same thing, and what I did was drain the battery down using the led light. Once it was almost dead I charged it for 2 days, and now it seems to be working fine.

Haven't done that kind of research on the device, but to prevent draining, you could always unplug the battery from the light. Mine has been unplugged for months. I have yet to charge the battery since first receiving it, but connected the light yesterday and it still as bright as ever and runs all four phases without issue (high, low, intermittent flash, off).

I wouldnt leave it charged all the time. Could effect the life of the rechargeable battery.
