Last night my Go Go Pro battery (with the led) ran down so I plugged it in to charge. This morning it was still charging and was at the 2 bar level. You know what I mean, while it is charging the led blinks 6 times with all 4 bars showing and then pauses for a few seconds with anywhere from 1-4 bars showing indicating the level of charge. After 10-12 hours it was still only showing 2 bars(it normally charges fully in less than 5 hours). The red charging light was on and it seemed to be working the same as every other time I have charged it. Do I have a problem? I unplugged it and am currently using it and when it runs down I will try to charge it again and hope it charges correctly. Will this affect the long term charge level of this battery? I understand that these batteries have a "memory". Anyone have this issue? What did you do? Any suggestions anyone?

No way to answer your concerns at this point. I suggest you insure you have a clean connection between the battery and the charger and keep it on the charger however long it takes until it has full bars. If it won't charge up to full bars then send it back for a replacement battery. If it does charge up to a full charge then hopefully it will reboot and everything will be back to normal.

Hope everyone has a great Labor Day weekend! My Chopper Tank won't get here until after, but I'm excited to get one! Thanks to chopper22980 for the fantastic design and everyone here for spreading the word! I'm coming up on 6 months of using the Go-go only and pretty much give it credit for my no analog life! Rock on Go-go!!!!

As mohawk suggests, you should make sure you have clean connection. Cleaning by sight isn't enough with the Go-Gos, sometimes you need to clean the battery ends with Alcohol. (Rubbing alcohol) I've had my batteries not fire or charge and then after a q-tip swab dipped in alcohol to clean them off, they charged and/or fired right away. If this doesn't help come back and let us know!

mohawkx, txtumbleweed, Devonmoonshire, old buddies, I didn't think disappearing from these places would set me so far behind :p Glad ya'll are holding things up! How do the Go-carts work on the 510 batteries? I've ordered some 510 to Go-go adapters since I have 8 of those eGo-T batts!

Hehe Yep, we are definitely keeping things Go Going :D Yeah actually these adapters are very well built and work flawlessly. I put mine on my Provari, started at 4V and gradually bumped it all the way up as high as 5.2 volts. That is where it choked me with the huge cloud of Lung Filling Vapor that scared me to go any higher :D It was awesome!! I have not tried it on the Ego T batts because they are such low voltage they would not really work all that well with the Go Carts I have as the ones I have are registering at 3 Ohms or higher.

For the Ego Batts I Highly recommend the Dual Coil Cartos that are now being made, they Rock on the Ego Batts. That is all I use on mine now except for my one 650 I use my 510-T on and the 650 I use my 306 lr Dripper on.

I just put in an order for some dual coil mega carts. I will let you know my impressions on the xl2 when they come in.
So far, this xl2 in my opinion is a clear ego killer.
I also ordered 9 kinds of juice from eric.
Smoking the lemonade now.
I like it. I would give it a 4 out of 5. It does taste just like lemonade.

I've been looking for a USB charger/adapter for the car cigarette/power socket. I have read a lot of negative reviews for various ones at Newegg and Amazon. Does anyone have a recommendation for a particular brand/model? The one I got with my Go Go Pro has an output of 5v-.5A. How close to this do I need to get?

Thanks for catching me up on the on the eGo batts voltage and its effect on the Go-cart! I'm glad you survived the Provari!!! :toast: Now I'm thinking the use for my adapters is Eric's XL1 battery. Has anyone tried it? :vapor:
