Mine quit working after one month. It was doing the same thing. The company was no help at alland will not reply back to emails or calls.

Id have to dig out the unit. I thought there was a green light on top. Otherwise leave charging for like 12 hours with everything off. Hippie this helps.

If it fails to charge at under 75% or less, the battery is either defective or your electrical cord is not working. If you have a red/orange/white light by the plug into the laptop then it is not a problem with the cord and the battery is defective and should be returned for replacement.

What happens when you plug it in to your PC to charge? You should see flashing LEDs. If not you can try contacting VAAS at http://www.vaaselectronics.com/contacts/. Please post to let us know how you make out. Good luck.

Yes, it took a very long time to charge. It started yellow, then went to flashing red and I thought it wasn't going to work. But after several hours it charged and worked. Good luck.

No. It sounds like a defective unit. The LEDs should only flash when charging.

The red light won't stay on. I've plugged it both in the wall and on my computer and I have no indication that the charge is holding. Is this happening to anyone else or should I return it? I only got it today.

what type of connection are you using to charge the device? Some wall outlet-USB converters have an issue with that so that would be my first course of action. Ill search for the digital copy of an instruction book if I can find one I'll respond with it. Also try leaving it for a full 8 hours chargin after draining it all the way if you want to make absolutely sure it fully charges. Thats with ALL batteries that do recharging. frequently drainging fully then recharging fully is the best way to ensure longevitty

It doesn't seem normal. Mine will stay a solid red and then turn off once it is charged.

Mine has been charging for 6 hours and still red, not sure what to do...Only time I saw green light was when I first put the batteries on the charger while still unplugged. I thought this was odd.

I found the charging time to be about a 1.5 to 2 hours. There is a red/orange light that illuminates when you first plug it in. It will go out when it is fully charged.

I just had an issue with mine not charging. It got to zero and when I rebooted with it plug into the USB charger, I could see the little lighting bolt on the battery indicating it was trying to charge, but it shut off because of low batter. Kind of a Catch-22. I tried this cycle a few times and was fed up, so I decided to unplug it and let it 'die down' for half a day. Then I plugged it back in and the screen showed me that it was charging! I let it charge up for a few hours and it started up and continued to charge. If you are having charging issues, try letting it run out and "die", then plug it in. Worked for me, YMMV. I just had an issue with mine not charging.

I think it is greenish reddish kind of light. According to the user manual and I verified on my unit, it is supposed to be orange --indicating it is charging. When completely charged it will turn red. I guess they tried to create orange with combining the two led lights...Hope that helps. Best bet is to let it charge completely, and it should turn red. Make sure your unit is in OFF position before you start charging. Hope it helps.

I have the exactly the same question. The charging light of mine stays red after an overnight charging. That contradicts to what the manual said: "orange while charging, green when it is fully charged". It looks like it is a common problem so that mine is not defective, then I do not need to return it.

Mine is doing the same thing. Right out of the box. Not sure if it's the charger, the battery or the charge port. Neither USB nor the main adapter charge it at all.
