I just received my Vamo with a trustfire T-001 charger and 1 18350 and 2 18650 batteries. I go to pop the batteries in the charger and the lights just stay green. I thought,ok they came charged. I then popped them into the vamo and it reads both batteries at 3.8v and from what I read they top off at 4.2. So what's going on? I tried wiggling the batteries around and the green lights just stay green,even when I take the batteries out they stay green.

I have the same charger and charge my 18650's fine. It sounds like a bad charger.
Man that sucks 
I'm going to leave the battery in for a couple hours and check on the vamo,hopefully the lights just don't work and ill atleast get a full charge for this weekend....if not,bummer.

My batteries took over 12 hours to charge fully the first time. But the lights did turn red right away. If you have a volt meter you can test to see if its working. I have heard of bad chargers before tho so this seems like the most likely problem.
BTW.. those chargers are more common than you would think. That charger has the ability to charge I think 6 or 7 different batteries which have a wide variety of uses. You might have luck trying a sporting good store that would sell high quality flashlights. Even some walmarts may have them. If it's an emergency that may be your best bet. Good luck man! Not having batteries is the WORST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
well I feel like a schmuck, it was set on 3V. I flipped the switch to 3.6 and poof,it works.
