epower 14650 charging question

[deezdrama]

Sorry for so many questions but the instructions are vague,

I put one of the epower smoktek 14650 batteries on the charger, light went from red to yellow after about 30 minutes, then yellow to green a short while later....

i assume its charged now, i dont have to wait for the light to turn off do i?

Also, do these chargers stop charging and trikle charge once the battery is fully charged?

I mean, what if the battery was left on the charger overnight? Is it safe or do i need to pull them off as soon as its charged?

You are always safer removing the battery as soon as its charged. It is charged when it turns green. Have I forgotten to take them off? Yep, but its not a good idea to overcharge them. I don't trust any protective circuit on the very cheap chinese batterries or chargers.

Shouldn't hurt to leave them for awhile , but if your around , always better to take out the batteries , once fully chargedv. The chargers are supposed to have overcharge protection , but I don't really trust that particular fact .
