18650 Battery Bad?

[nodramaclothing]

I have a Sanyo 18650 2600mah Li-ion Battery That I received on Thursday and a New Trustfire TR-001 Charger. I have charged the battery for 12 hours and the light is still red. I put it in my apv and checked the voltage and it reads 3.8v. I put it back on the charger for another 4 hours and then checked it on the apv now its 3.9v. I used it for about 20 mins and it dropped back to 3.8v. The charger has a slide switch for 3v and 3.6v and it is in the 3.6v position. Anybody have any advice?

As an Update I contacted Litecigusa.net tonight at 8:30 via their website. At nine they emailed me this:

"It could be a weak cell battery. We are currently out of stock on them. I can refund you the price of the battery, send you when they come back in stock, or I can send you one of our IMR batteries. Just let me know which you would prefer."

As far as I am concerned that is great customer service. I will continue to recommend them to anyone looking for a great source for vaping supplies.

i'd grab the IMR since they offered it, the Li-ion cells are more volitile
