How long for 1st charge of Sony 18650 vtc4 2100 mah on a Luc V4 Charger(0.5A Charge)

Im really fiending to try out my new sigelei 150 Watt box! How long do the sony vtc4s take on first charge, charging at .5 with a lucV4 charger?

I was considering charging at 2A but I never charge any batteries at the highest setting always the lowest, so hopefully wont take 8 hours or something.

Thank you! and on the Luc Charger I guess I just wait until all the bars have filled up the battery to indicate a full charge? Im so excited to be vaping with some quality gear!

VTC4's are 2100 mAh. If they are half empty they will need 1050 mAh stuffed back in them. At 500 mA (0.5 A), that will take 1050/500=2.1 hours plus about 1/2 hour for the constant voltage part of the charge to finish off.

They should have been shipped at around half charged
