quincey43, It isn't anything you are not doing anything wrong, I have had the same problems with these batteries, they are not worth charging so they are in the dead bin, cost me replacing wall chargers usb connectors. But I have read that others have no problems with them...luck of the draw?

Must be luck of the draw, I have exactly the same problem - I've seen some websites have 'vision spinner 2' chargers, but whether they will make a difference I don't know. I'm tending to stick to my 1300 Evod VV for now. Use the spinner as a spare

Out of interest.......when you put the battery on to charge, does it (the charger) indicate that charging is complete after about 20 mins to half an hour? If this is the case, as it is with mine, turn the charger off, wait a minute then turn it back on and it should then charge for the full length of time needed. Don't know if this helps quincey43

I have to do the same as sleedale otherwise it doesn't fully charge. Has been getting worse over the past few weeks. I'll just get another Vamo V5 for the same price

Same hear mine charges to blue first time then after turning off and on again it will go on and charge to white very poor. I have a £3 battery that charges better.

I have 2 Spinners and they both need a reset whilst charging to get a full charge in them.

Ok this is just my thoughts and not confirmed.
When the vision spinner II batteries are charging they have a 'heartbeat' i.e. the charger flashes green every 5 seconds. so I think that some chargers get a bit confused with this 'heartbeat' and think that the battery is actually fully charged when it is only around 50%.
I have 2 chargers and 2 spinner batteries. The stopping halfway nonsense only happens on one of the chargers and with one of the batteries more than the other.
I don't have the kit at home to prove my theory and TBH I am too busy in work to mess round to check it out.

I've just ordered my first Vision Spinner, I was going to use my evod charger, will that work ok? Don't really want to have another charger on the go too. It's my first VV, treated myself with the Love Vaping sale.

Any ego charger will charge the Vision Spinner II. You may run into this half charge problem but just unplug the charger and then plug it back in to get to a full charge. I have 2 spinners and I only ever get this problem with 1 of them and even then it's not all the time
