Does the charger's shake to charge have and on and off feature? Does it just keep turning on every time you run or move?

The lights will turn on whenever there is a movement. It does not seem to affect the battery life though.

You do have to shake it, but nothing serious, just a bump and you will see the light come on, and the charging begin.

I thought it said it does in the directions? I can't use the feature because my charger doesn't stay on when car is off.

I know this feature can be turned on or off, but I can't remember off the top of my head how. All I know is mine always vibrates when it reads the correct yardage. I suggest revueing the owners manual.

It does when you first put it on the charger to let you know.it's charging then also when its fullychagedYou can Also change the tones hope this helps

It usually starts with one or two pulls of the starter cord so it's really not an issue. It will re-charge itself when running. If it's an issue any trickle charger will do but is really unnecessary.

Yes, after a charge it runs without being plugged in, it works both ways. I just wish it had some sort of light to tell you when it needs charging and when it is charged up.

I don't have a definitive answer for that, but I have charged mine many times, and it seems to stop when the charge is complete.

The charger is very quiet. I don't remember if it goes off when it's done charging, it's that quiet.

I do not have this charger anymore, but if I recall correctly: it will turn off. However as long as the battery is completely charged it is in my opinion just cosmetic. R.

I haven't really payed much attention to the time to recharge, but it hasn't been a problem. My problem with it is that sporadically it quits and I have to turn it off and turn it back on. When this happens it does it repeatedly, typically till I get frustrated with it and stop using it. It only seems to do this when I am using it in a vehicle, plugged into the radio from the earplug jack. I have been charging it from the computer USB port.

i believe the charger turns off automaticly after the battery is charged at least some do tho some chargers tell you that you are useing unnecesary electricity by leaving it on but i would suggest removeing the battery once it is charged.

No, it has a separate battery with charger. I keep two, so its easy to switch out when one runs low.

Yes it has a switch to turn it on and off if you don't want it oscillating.

This is normal. It does not change, it just stays on to let you know it is charging.

This unit is not a "constant charging" design. That is what makes it a cut above the rest. It charges to full charge, and then only senses that battery's charge level. When charging is needed to bring the battery back up to full charge, it turns on again. I have had one on a stored car's battery for almost a year as I have never gotten the engine back together. Another sports car I have may sit for a week or more without it being started. It has a Battery Tender attached to its battery too when that car sits.

No, as far as I've experienced it would just continue to charge. There's no on/off switch. The button on the side is for battery check and double-click-for-flashlight.
