Will this run too hot on battery recharger?

If you are asking "can I use this to power a battery charger" the answer depends on what the charger needs for power. There should be a label somewhere on the charger listing volts and amps. If the label lists 12VDC and no more than 1 Amp or 1000 ma then this power supply will work. If you are asking"will this work for my 12V battery charger" the answer is no. You need a power supply rated at 14.5V to charge a 12V lead acid battery.

This is a extended life battery. It hasn't appeared to get hot with me. Getting hot is one of the items that are listed for return or replacement. Anker will replace the battery. If it continues to get hot, after a replacement is installed, then something could possibly be going bad in the power adaptor or laptop. Unfortunately, the only way to verify if battery is working, is it will tell you in windows that the battery is charging at so much percentage. Anker can be contacted directly for troubleshooting issues. Anker is good people. I used them and they were excellent! I would get a replacement first and see if that clears up the issue. If it is the battery, this problem should go away. It is not unusual for batteries to get warm, but It should never be hot to the touch. Directions that came with your first battery, should mention about battery getting to warm. Hope this helps. Feel free to write again. Have a Blessed day.

The real answer: Nothing to worry about if the current draw of the device is less than the maximum output of the battery. However, if the current draw of the device is GREATER than the battery's maximum output current, you will possibly experience the battery overheating and/or experience a thermal runaway.

Yes, this is normal for lithium ion batteries. Charging and discharging will always result in some degree of heat output.

My big freezer out in the garage gets real hot on the sides when it is uper hot outside here in chico and i have to unplug it, to make sure it does not catch file. but the freeer does have insillation so it should not start on fire. but it is better to play sife thatn sorry, but make sure that you remeber to plug it back in a couple of hours later.

I don't know. It gets so hot when it is plugged in to "recharge " that I would never leave it plugged in unattended.

Do not use this charger, for the first two charges it worked fine , but now it does not shut itself off and over charges. My 24 Volt lead acid batteries got hotter than heck I was afarid it could catch fire. I am glad I checked on it and disconnected it from charging.

Well, most of the time high temperatures means way up in the 100s degree, I don't think anybody uses that battery charger in those hot temperatures, and the only reason they say that is because heat decreases the battery life, you are not gonna use that in high temperatures are you?

Your phone shouldn't get that hot unless there's a problem with the battery... as long as the battery life itself is okay, if you can put up with the warm phone I don't think you necessarily need the extra battery. My factory battery gets very warm as well and it seemed to be affecting the battery life, so I bought this product. I've been using these batteries instead of my factory battery.

Nothing, what should happen? The reason you shouldn't use it above 32 degrees is you could overheat the the element or the battery. I don't use it as a battery warmer. It operates at temperatures well over 32 degrees but you have to have enough of a heat sink to dissipate the heat or turn it off and on.

mine has gotten quite warm. I don't use it longer than necessary - only in emergencies, not as a substitute for a regular charge. I'd be careful where you place it while charging.

I've had mine about 40 days. Everything is working fine, better than expected actually. Have charged both batteries twice with no issues. As stated earlier, the charger does get warm. Probably warm enough to 'burn off' dust if it has any. As an HVAC mechanic, I generally get calls in the fall for dust getting burned off ( particularly in gas units), and people think their house is on fire. Can't guarantee that's what you're experiencing, but that would be my first guess. If in doubt, send it back

When I got it, I fully charged it. When I'm just on battery power. it lasts about 4 hours max. Each recharge slowly decreases the battery life. Yes, it does make the laptop hot. I use a laptop cooling pad and it keep it pretty cool. However, the pad connect to the laptop which uses more power if you're just on battery power alone.

Any battery under a charging condition will get hot,reason as elecricity passes to its inner cells to charge them,they will get warm/hot,same as using an electric blanket,where one will not feel the wormth of it until it is pluged in.I hope I have answered your question to your satisfaction.karl lawar

I bought the same exact model of Sony charger a few years ago and even though it took more than four hours to charge the included AAs it overheated so badly it blistered the plastic off all the new batteries. SO, I would say this charger could easily DESTROY any brand of batteries.

Yes, as long as you keep the power on, it will alway be hot and running. I had mine on for about 3 hours.

No, the directions say you shouldn't because it could overheat. But it charges very quickly (5-10 minutes) and stays charged for weeks.
