Hey another quick question. To all of you that have an njoy penstyle. My charger turns green normally after about 3 hours. Now.. I have seen elsewhere on here that some people say to charge for 12 hours etc.. But.. My main question is.. on the njoy charger.. is it still charging after 3 hours when its green? I can pull the battery off use if for a couple minutes and then put it back in the charger and it tops off the battery in oh.. say 10 mins then its green again. If you cant tell im bored at home today so i thought i would ask.

Most electronic thingies with rechargeble batteries have a "cut off". they charge at the full rate until the nominal voltage is reached, then once that is detetcted, they go to "trickle charge" which could be anywhere from 1-10% of the full charge rate. It'll stay like that until you cut the power. Really the idea of the first long charge is to really push the battery capacity to it's limit, making full use of all available battery power. IF you keep charging it at the full rate, it can easily overchage and leak/rupture/catch fire/go mental/turn into black hole/etc. At least that's the way I remember it being explained to me.
