Question regarding Vapor King wall charger

[smogharp]

Hello all. After researching for weeks, I finally settled on ordering via Vapor4Life for my first vaporizer. It arrived today, to my excitement.

Quick noob question: I've hooked one of my batteries up to the wall charger. The light was red at first (to indicate charging), but within maybe half an hour, it's changed to green (supposedly indicating full charge). There's no way it's done already- I'm leaving it in for the full eight hours advised. Has anyone else experienced this? Just hoping I didn't get a faulty battery.

The batteries come maybe half charged already. If the light i green it is charged.

Many batteries come with a charge already in them. My 3 ego's all finished with in 20-30 minutes when I first got them.

Huh, maybe so. I'm just hesitant to unplug it as I was informed the first charge should be eight hours.

Many batteries are shipped with a full, or near full, charge.

The 8 hours bit is a legacy that nobody's gotten around to cleaning out from the documentation, from other things I've read on this topic. These are modern lithium ions, that you're getting with a near full charge -- you should be fine just topping it off and using it.

Works for me. Now I don't have to wait a painful eight hours. Thanks.
