Question about e-Go 900mAH batteries/kit

[invader_mew]

This should be a pretty easy question, yet I can't seem to find the answer anywhere...

I just got an eGo mania 900mAH and I need to know what the charging time is for the battery. I need to know this because I'm trying to find out if one of the batteries that came in my kit is dysfunctional or not. I got it in the mail today and one of the batteries was charged, the other was not, so I put the dead battery on the charger and watched a movie with my roommate. I then took off the battery, put it in it's case and put it away. I go back tonight to switch the batteries and charge the one i'd been using all day only to not be able to get more than 15 minutes from the unused battery. Does that sound like a bad battery to anyone else?

I'm going to let it charge overnight and see what happens but needless to say, I'm kinda worried/upset...

I would try charging the other battery just to see if it's actually the charger that isn't working. Some of the chargers lately have been bad. If that's the case, then the vendor should replace it for you. Normally it takes around 3 hours to charge a 900mah. Sometimes it can take a little longer depending on if the battery was fully depleted and if you're using it on a USB port or on the wall adapter.

I have had a charger issue a couple times, battery did not charge (ego). I found that screwing the battery into the charger "all the way" as you would an atty was too tight and the charging contacts did not work right. Now I just turn the battery in far enough for the button/light to blink + about a quarter turn/barely snug. Not a charging problem since.
