Today around 11 CST....I am just following the suggestion to charge it before use...I have no cable so I had to order one, but I know the mindset.....I got a new bike and I cannot ride it because there is 12 inches of snow syndrome!And how long have you had it now? You have much more restraint than I. When a new toy arrives I can barely make it 20 mins before having a serious play session with it
