Hey guys, first of all, LOVE the SI Volt. I've gone several days w/o analogs and that hasn't happened for years. Couple of questions about the PCC, though, and I was hoping someone knowledgeable could lead me in the right direction. The PCC came w/o directions (accidental ommision), but I watched/read plenty about it so I thought had a good understanding of how it works. The problem is knowing when it's actually charging the battery. I push and hold the button for 2-5 seconds, and it does indeed blink just as mentioned, but sometimes it blinks and shows two full bars solid with a third blinking (presumably meaning it's 2/3rds charged and just needs a little more to fully charge it.
But...here's where I'm confused. Sometimes I push and hold the button and instead of blinking bars on the right side of the display, I get a blinging infinity symbol (you know, a sideways 8). What is that about? Does that mean it's already fully charged? If so, why would it do that when I put a half empty battery on the unit? Also, I notice that only sometimes the battery that's being charged will light-up the LED at the end of the batt; which to me means it's actively charging; but other times, the LED is not lit at all while it's on the charger and the batt is surely mostly empty. What's going on with this? How do I know when/if these batts are being fully charged?
I know. . . too many questions to ask at once. I'm a noob at forum posting. TIA for anyone with input. Greatly appreciate it.

What are you trying to do, Wuzz?
You can either: "Go Advanced" and upload a photo from your computer (file size will be small though, and it'll show up as a thumbnail here)
or go to one of those sites that hosts photos (like Photobucket or Flickr), open a free account and upload it there, then right-click to copy the link to it and paste into the "Insert Image" box...
Is that where you're stuck?
Congratulations Guinness! Someone other than I can answer your questions as I've yet to purchase SI's PCC
Are you related to Os and Jenny Guinness?

Okay - You can blame "Me" all you want . . . I can take it
Now if we could also get "Lax" & "Wuzzntme" to join you, " eyebedam", & "DM" we should have all the regulars faces posted here
Don't worry, I'm working on it
There are lots of other regulars around here without pics posted, YET 
Not to mention our fearless leader, I think Imagine should lead the charge to get everybody to post pics 
OK - just playing around and I will gladly remove if you want me to imagine!

Wow, that sounds like a lot going on - and someone with infinitely more knowledge than me will chime in, don't doubt it. I just noticed that infinity symbol for the first time while trying to do it myself to describe the steps I use. It was a fully charged batt, so I wonder if that isn't something telling you the PCC is recognizing the batt as fully charged? I got the symbol, and the batt itself flashed a few times, then all went out. I haven't used my PCC lately to charge, but will try and report back as soon as I have one to plug in. I can say that I've had very good experience with the thing -- can I ask how long you're vaping before you put the battery on the charger?
Oh, and btw, Welcome!
Surprise are a comin'
AND - Tell me about it
Worse is I'm back stuck on a damn smartphone - one finger tapping / typing away till iget back home to my computer

You're gonna be on the payroll in a minute.
First, welcome and congrads!
The blinking infinity symbol usually indicates the pcc doesn't think there's a battery in there. Not sure what to tell ya, maybe just unscrew the battery and reinstall it in the pcc.
As far as regular use, I just press and hold the button until the left side of the charge indicator starts scrolling the bars. I have run into some strange indications when the pcc was low on charge, like the LED on the end of the battery lighting up for 30 seconds then turning off when the pcc lights went off.
I like the top one best too!
