Tornado Charger

[Numfluff]

Hello, I've had my tornado for three months now and their have been no problems, but recently my charger broke, so I got a new USB tornado charger that seemed to work fine for a day. But the next day when i screwed in the battery into the charger the battery diden't flash and the charger stayed green, I tried it with my other battery but with the same result.

Is their anyway I can fix this?

You need to check with the tonado people and find out thru P.M.'s if this is normal or what. Have you tried your charger on another plug?

Yup, I've tried the USB charger on different plugs and it still doesen't seem to work properly. think I'll contact the company i bought it from and see if i can get a replacement or refund since I don't see any way it could be fixed.

I've noticed even on the mains with the adapter type charger (vs. the usb quick charger) that if you go too far you can get a green light. Screw it in slowly and as soon as the red light on the charger comes on (batt led also flashes) - stop. If that doesn't do it, return it.

I recieved a bad one with my Ego, it was the one that has the USB on one end and the other end has the female end that the bat screws into, Mik at Janty is the man, he replaced it no question asked, just about.

I tried your advise and it still doesen't work, I've been thinking it could actually be the batteries, they have been out of power for a couple of days now, though with that said they where working fine when the usb charger came the other day.

Return the charger and if it was the charger that caused the batteries to go (if they are indeed gone - a multimeter could tell you that - search multimeter here), they should replace them too.
