My USB battery meter is saying that the unit is being charged at 0.09 amps... Must be a bad battery?

I have no idea what was wrong , I have discarded this item as it never worked.

Whoever posted the first answer, original poster did say the battery is depleted. Pay attention.To the OP: perhaps your battery is too small to be charged with a larger current.

The USB won't charge it; I think it says that in the manual. Or I read it on a customer review. You may have a faulty charger. You can probably pick up a charger at Radio Shack. If it's the unit itself, I guess you'll have to call the 800 number or go to the website and contact Customer Service. They'll tell you what to do. I hate that for you. Good luck.

The battery might just be fully charged. That was the case with mine.Use the battery a bit then plug it back into the charger. Make sure the charger is plugged into the USB port.

I've done it from an OLD 0.5A/500mA usb wall charger. Computer usb ports put out 5v at 0.5A/500mA, whereas most newer usb chargers put out 5-5.1v at 1A or more, so the battery may not be able to handle the higher amperage.

I Don't know. Mine fully charges fine. Could be a bad charger or battery. Contact the seller.

i think you should start with trying another charger. since its a micro-usb port it shouldnt be too much of a problem finding one. you should also try different sockets... the electrical output may differ a little bit. if the problem still persists, i assume its the battery. try discharging it and (however) charge it again up to 100%. your next option would be buying another battery... good luck!

it is normal. all charge will charge above 1.2V (NiMH rated) for a while.. and that 1.45V will drop back to 1.2~1.25 quickly after you use for 10min.

The charging unit does not appear to charge anymore (it's about a month old and maybe a week or two in use). I will try a third 9v battery to see if we can get it to charge later on today. However moments ago I tested for any voltage and expected to see none; to my surprise the charging unit appears to be allowing 22 - 23 volts through. Does anyone know if this charger is prone to problems? As soon as I locate the batteries that were delivered with this unit I will use them to test on this charger.If anyone has any info please email me at springfieldcomputers A T yahoo D O T com.

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.

Check the rated output of your charger. I've charged mine with chargers rated from 1 to 2.1 amps. Obviously, it charges faster with more current.

Sounds to me like you may have a faulty one. Mine charged up just fine, and I am still doing well with it. I would contact the company. Sorry I could not be of more help.

Connie,It sounds like the voltage on the battery is too low to charge. Has this battery every worked in this system before and is your charger plugged in and working ? Make sure you check the outlet that the charge is plugged into to confirm that it's getting the 110v it needs to charge the battery. Here is a good article to help you with your problem - best of luck to you. http://www.batterystuff.com/kb/articles/battery-articles/troubleshooting-a-battery.htmlRegards,Ken

I'm having the same problem. (-1 displaying instead of battery voltage) Battery appears to be charging. Voltage at battery was mid to high thirteen volt range with panel hooked up, and mid to high 12 volt range with panel disconnected. Battery level is up after a day of charging. Battety load tested good at RV center during spring check up.

OK, Lisa, the unit I purchased has worked perfectly and I haven't had any issues. I set it up for charging and it charges fine . I can't honestly say I have any complaints. Not to seem unimaginative but if beleive the unit is defective then I'd contact Amazon customer service. There are also written instructions with the unit. I hope this has been helpful.

yes, if its usb powered, guessing t100? cause my t100 charges off of most things, its just slow to charge when under 2.amps

I would definitely say that the unit or the battery you are trying to charge is defective. Mine gets warm, but not even close to frighteningly hot!
