Charger issues

[collie2011]

The cheap charger that came with my Kamry K200 has an issue. The K200 tells me the battery is flat, pop it in the charger and it has a green light. Left it in the charger for an hour and when I put it in the K200 it showed as 2 bars. No matter how long I leave them in the charger for, the most it shows on my K200 is 2 bars and it lasts a few hours at most. Time for a better charger asap?

I have a charger here that sometimes tells me the battery is charged when I know its flat, But if I unplug it then plug it back in again it recognizes the battery is flat.Weird but it works.

every cheap charger i have had from china has been crappy. i got the intellicore I4 -costs about £20 quid mark and works perfectly. charges all types of batteries and never a problem.

I have just one of these: www.vapeescape.co.uk/Vaping-Spares/Chargers/XTAR-MP1S.html

Works a treat, cheap and cheerful

collie2011 are you sure the positive (nipple end) is making contact with contact in the charger?

The cheap one's I have had sometimes have a ridge meaning the flat top batteries don't make contact. I solved this by using a bit of tin foil but a little magnet would be a better solution.

Yep, I've stuck a stick in there to make sure it's snug lol. had one on for 5 hours yesterday so i'm going to try it now. If it's still bumming about i'm ordering a new charger tomorrow.
