Battery Charger For The GoGo

[Pink Floyd]

I have a question on how the charger lights react. This is in reference to the supplied GoGo charger.

I have several chargers from different types of ecigs, and other electronics equipment. But the GoGo charger seems to do something different from ANY charger I own. The ecig chargers I have are pretty much the same item no matter what ecig you have.

I plug the charger into the AC supply, and of course the green light on the charger itself comes on.
Light on the end of charger where the GoGo screws in is also green.

Screw on the battery and light changes red.
2 1/2 three hours later the light goes green, claiming the battery is now fully charged.

BUT

After several minutes of the battery being charged (green light), the green light goes out/off!
(normally, to the best of my knowledge, it will stay green till you unplug from the AC supply)

This doesn't happen on my better half's GoGo charger. And I haven't read of this happening on any other ecig site. Course doesn't mean it doesn't happen. But it sure does happen to mine.

I wont know if the battery took a full charge till I start using it. (I like draining battery's before I go on to the next one in line)

My question....

Has this happened to anyone else?

I might add, I did not have to do any tinkering around with contacts to get anything working like a lot of others have had to do. There is no "making contact" issues with mine. (yet)

This and a few other things I may write about in another thread is really getting me ticked off.
Nothing is consistent with this supplier!
The supplier these two GoGo dealers deal with are a total joke in my book.

Hopefully it turns itself OFF so you do not start a fire. Batteries should never STAY on a charge.

Unfortunately my GoGo hit green and stays green. Maybe you have a newer one?

I did get the kit this past Saturday. But have never heard of the green light going off after a charge.

You have the suppliers telling you to give a full 8 hour charge for the initial charge...well if the green light goes off, I'm guessing that means no more juice going to the battery, which means so much for a full 8 hour charge.
The manual doesn't say anything about the light going off completely after a charge either.

This along with so many other questions/complaints posted on numerous ecig forums, leaves me (and I know others) to question the quality control of the makers of this crap.

It only take 4 hours to charge it dead empty

If this was made in the US it would be $100 or more. You get what you pay for. Chinese products cheap with QC issues are normal in most all small batches. It is the same thing in my other hobbies but, they eventually get it right.

But my green light goes out around 2 1/2 hours. How do I know its charging, or even trickle charging after the green light goes out. And why don't other chargers for the GoGo, or any other item go completely out?

I'm starting to think I have a bad charger...maybe.

And I agree...QC has gone to pot in this whole world.

Well without a voltmeter I would say take it off and start vaping. If you get to smoke it for 12-24 hours you are good to GoGo.
