Just leave alone on the charger and walk away for a little bit. Come back in 30 mins and give it another try. If it's making contact with your tank and you're able to vape with it, then the contact is post should be fine. Take a break.

I have a couple of cheap chargers that I inherited from some eGo kits. They take ages to charge my Spinner 2, but I noticed that one of them has a slight issue with the USB plug itself; It has to be pushed over to one side in order to get it to start charging, regardless of which battery is connected to it. Maybe this is your problem... Try wiggling the USB plug in the socket and see what happens. Failing that, I would suggest a new charger... At least they're not expensive :D

• The Vision Spinner II like all ego & 510 batteries, requires a standard usb charger of 420mah as well as a wall adapter of 500mah output. Any use of non-standard chargers with higher outputs such as iPhone & android chargers, can likely damage the battery and cause unwanted consequences therefore the useof non standard chargers on Vision Spinner II's is strictly prohibited and immediately invalidates the warranty.

I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it.

I am charging my vision spinner 2 for the first time but the usb light is green as soon as I plug it into my pc but when I twist my vision spinner onto the usb nothing happens, the light on the usb stays green and nothing lights up on the vision spinner what is wrong?

i also have a spinner 2 and noticed that it doesn't charge all the way even though i get a green light. what i do is unscrew it from the charger and then screw it back in a second time and leave it until i get another green light, which takes a few hours. unfortunately you have to do that every time you charge it but it fixes the problem.

Sorry, I should have been more specific... That's EXACTLY what happens to me with that faulty charger that I have, not only with my Spinner 2, but each of my other batteries. The other charger that I have works perfectly, every time.

So its a faulty charger? And if so whats some actually high quality chargers for the spinner

This is the one I have. Notice the short cable length.

That's the same thing I have. Every charger that I've seen looks the same. Some have logos printed on them, some don't. The only one that looks different is the one from Kanger. I really don't think there's much difference between them...

How tightly are you screwing it onto the charger? I've found with mine that it's better to not tighten it all the way. I'd also recommend plugging it into a wall adapter rather than your computer - you'll get a better overall charge.
My Spinner 2s are exactly the opposite, they charge much better off of there computer... Weird...

OP, make sure you turn the battery up to 4.8v when charging. Mine do the exact same thing as yours, they'll go blue and turn off the I gotta take them off of the charger, turn them back off, then back on the charger...

I got a new charger and it works thanks for the help guys, although I am getting constant burning tastes for some reason

When did you last change or clean your coil? Burning taste is usually a pretty good indication that you need to change it out; you could also be using too high of a setting.
