Should the red light stay on perpetually (6 days and counting) when battery is charging?

The red light on the plug indicates that there is power to the air pump. It does not indicate level of charge in the battery.

What you are experiencing is normal. The red light charge indicator lamp will glow and it will stay on until the plug is removed from the AC outlet.

The red light indicates the unit is plugged in, and that is charging. It does not go out.

My light (green) stay's on when charging. It goes off when complete. Mine only blinks when the battery is low. It sounds as if your battery might be faulty. I never use tech support on anything. They usually know less about their products than we do!

The red light won't stay on. I've plugged it both in the wall and on my computer and I have no indication that the charge is holding. Is this happening to anyone else or should I return it? I only got it today.

I do not think the light was designed to be left on continuously. I have mine set for one minute on when the motion control activates it. I think this setting is adjustable. Even though it is powered by solar batteries, I would think that a couple of hours would be the max on time for a full charge. It was designed as a security light to come on for a short time when triggered. If you need continuous light, a hard-wired device is your best bet.

Mine does the same thing. It is charged when I unplug it later. I wish the LED indicator would stay on.

When the battery is charging it will start as red and transition to blue. Once its blue its charged. The light will not shut off.

No, the light does not stay on. You should see that the phone is charging on the battery indicator.

A few hours. A red light should come on when you plug it in to indicate it's charging and will go off when it's fully charged.

The red light only blinks when the battery needs charging or when the system is being powered off. A continuous red light signifies a fully charged battery. Try holding the power button down for about ten to fifteen seconds and the red light should stay on. The same should be done to the record button for the recording to start.

The red light stays on the entire time it's charging. It turns off when it's done. I had an issue where it wasn't charging and the red light would go on and off, but that ended up being my usb port.

A red light comes on when charging. When fully charged the light goes off. It doesn't change color.

It stays on to show battery status. If you disconnect it from the charger it will go from green to yellow to red until the battery is drained. I actually took mine off as it kept draining my battery. They sell one without the light indicators.

No, it isn't....I don't think there is anything in the LED that could hold a residual charge, so I would suspect the timer isn't completely disrupting the current. Just make sure (in a dark room) that they are actually illuminating while "off" and not just reflecting some other light source. The eyes can play tricks on us...:)

Mine seems to, or at the very least, there is a point where the red LED is no longer illuminated. I've never been in a situation where the battery ran down, so if you charge it regularly, you should be fine anyway.

Mine has a red light that comes on and stays on while charging. I will update when it's done charging to let you know what it does.OK, after charging the red light went off. At that point I disconnected from the charger and reconnected it, the light came on for a second and went right back off so it looks like you're fully charged. Hope this helps and enjoy!!
