how do you know if the battery is fully charge? I've been charging it for about 3 hours and the light still show red

It will take longer buddy. Make sure you have the right adapter and plug it directly to an outlet in the wall.

Sometimes it takes 12 hours, I bought 2 battery packs, They last me about a week of riding for about 40 minutes every morning before I have to change. I leave them plugged in to the light so there is always a bit of current draw even with the light off. I have ridden for > 3 hours on a charge and still used it the next day. I really like this unit even if it does take 12 hours to charge.

The red light will turn to a solid green. The first time you charge the unit it will take a while. My first charge took 8 hours.

It will turn green. I usually charge it overnight once a week. I have it on about 20 minutes 6 days a week.

In the directions it says that the red charging light should go off after charging is complete. Unfortunately it doesn't. I let mine charge for over 8 hours and the light remained on. The red light only indicates that it's charging. It will hold charge. Haven't had any other problem with my unit.

OK Susie P., so you've used the battery until it is completely exhausted and now it won't recharge, correct? If you have checked to make sure there is power to the charger, the charger light should glow red when no battery is inserted, red while the battery is charging (a couple hours) then green when the battery is fully charged. If the charger glows red and you never get to a green light, then the battery is defective and should be returned for an exchange/refund.

My experience has been that the red light stays solid while charging and turns to green once fully charged. I normally let mine charge overnight so I do not know how long it takes but it is always done by morning.

Is sounds like it is defective. Mine charges and the red light goes out and turns on real easy.

Red means it's still charging. Mine sometimes needs to be left charging overnight before it turns green. Not sure if that's the case with yours but it's worth a shot.

My red light eventually goes off. I have not had any issues. I typically charge the battery for a couple hours - less may work. Not sure.

Hi, When the light is green its not charging any more, Battery is at 100%. its supposed to start discharging.

Hello! From what I could tell, the light is red when charging. Once charged, the red light goes off.

The red light should go off when fully charged. If it doesn't you could have a defective battery that never reaches full charge. Try another battery before you conclude that it is a charger problem.

When you plug it in with a dead battery, the light should be red., When it is done charging, the light will be green. If your charger does not do this, you have a bad charger. I had bought a lower priced model, and it did not work. So be sure to get a quality charger.

My battery came charged but not fully charged. It would start the bike BUT when hooked to my charger the "red" light did NOT immediately go green. I charged it overnight and haven't had a problem since.

The first time I charged mine, it took over 3 hours. The light goes out when it's fully charged. The light on mine is reddish-orange when it's charging.

Eventually after the battery is fully charged the light goes to a steady green. If the battery is defective, a red light will indicate that. This charger is a little more critical of the overall health of the battery. Some people have commented that the charger says to replace the battery were other chargers say it is fine. I have only had this happen to me one time and I believe the battery probably should have been replaced.

Switch off, and you will see a red light while charging. The light goes out when it is done charging.
