Hello Robert,I I did charge mine when first received and it holds charge for a long time.

Mine worked great. I did charge it when I first got it, but it also worked right away.

it's always best to charge any battery at first use. I have trouble with my charge light also. The flashlight work great for the first few months, now it doesn't seem to hold a charge for very long at all.

not sure. I think I used it a little bit and then charged it fully. I use it till it gets low and then charge over night. In other words, don't put on a charge every night. I like so far.....hope that helps.

Never happened to me. Does the battery charge? Do the lights change color accordingly? Might be a bad charger.

Mine turned on right away. Try to give it 2 hours of charging. Otherwise you've got a defected one.

You SHOULD charge it just to make sure its actually working. It could mean nothing that you received it that way.

When to charge is still in question. The unit flashes until it is fully charged. SO far it is a good light, I have had multiple comments on the brightness and have crashed with it and it held up fine.

make sure it is charged. if it is, contact the company and they will repair it free of charge. i had a problem with mine not charging and sent it back. they fixed it and i've not had a problem since.

If all four lights are lit up, it is already charged and ready to use. It served it's purpose and charge my phone twice completely but then failed to recharge itself. I ended up returning it.

Yes it must be charged first. Lights are blue. You can download a manual that will tell You everYthing about it.

Well I ordered new one & tried without charging it but still it was working, & I charged after that & was working perfect.If you tried for 18 hrs, than check your charger. May something wrong with it.

Has the light been going on when you set it into the charger base? Sometimes mine will sit crooked in the stand and the light doesn't go on therefore it isn't charging.

mine did that initially. i left it charge for 10 hours then used it till it was dim. After the second charge the light went off when i assumed it was charged. hope that helps.

You have to fully charge it via the USB cable before you use it. Once it's charged the indicator light will come on. If it doesn't. There may be something wrong with the charger

Hey Mike, I just received mine a few days ago. I did charge it overnight, and when I woke up the next morning (and after 10 hours) the green light had gone off. Not sure why yours didn't.

There is only one light in this charger. When you plug it into the device, it will turn red and then it will change to green when charged. Check the side once you plug it in. Took me a couple of looks to make sure it was functioning - I did not think it had a light myself.

Supposedly you plug it in. Mine charged once, then never charged again. Good luck....

Hi. I started charging mine as soon as I unboxed it. It had some charge to it but not 100%. So far mine is ok but I hope both of us didn't get a refurbished product. Maybe someone else will reply too.

usually when you charge it , it should have a blue / red light that pops up. if it doesnt, it can be broken or you didn't charge the charger yet (:
