I did not have that problem. It should have switched to green by now. Are you sure you are using the right power cord? Maybe it is not getting enough juice. Let me know how it works out for you. I keep mine in my car and it gets powered there as I am using it. Have never had a problem with the green light showing.

Bro this was the worst device I ever bought. I do not recommend buying it to anyone and left a review accordingly. If you are experiencing problems already then you may be best of returning it. It is a limited MP3 players to begin with, so it really isn't worth the time. Trust me it was a pain to deal with, just wait until the button begins sticking. Just Return It.

Dear Aya,That's normal. The new charger blinks instead of having the steady red.After the full charge you will see a steady green light. Please contact our customer service if you have more questions.all the best,Team Tendlite

If it is the 24BC5000TF model, then the top light located closest to the edge is the charge light and should turn green when fully charged. If it does not turn green you could have a bad battery system.

I left mine on charge for several days. The light never turned green. The light on the charger went out, and now nothing works. Evidently, at these prices they do not include technology to stop the charger from over charging the battery. I will be attempting to return mine forthwith.

The light either goes off or turns green I dont remember. I always left it over night so I knew it was fully charged. Hope that helps .&#9786;&#65039;

I bought one of these ones. it takes only 2 hours showing purple eyes and then they change to consistent blue lights. It may be worth to try to charge it using a different usb cable

The light supose to come on red. When its charging and when its fully charged it turns green. But the ones that i got didnt turn on at all

I agree with the first two answers; if you are sure the battery is fresh ( confirm with meter or another light), the polarity is correct, and the cap is tight, then you probably were one of the few to get a defective one. The switch, a solder connection, or the LED/driver assembly could be bad.

Mine does not light up green as well. Never gets lower than 80 so it does not bother me.

I'm not sure. Usually, the light is orange, then turns green once the battery is charged. The contacts are particular, but if they're lined up, and you're still having the same issue, I would think there was a problem with either the battery or the charger.

I bought it to maintain charge on a battery over the winter. The green light soon came on and I assume it is maintaining a charged condition. I won't really know until I put the battery in the car when the weather improves and see if it starts up okay. Quick charging was not a factor in my purchase decision. Maintaining a charged condition was the main consideration.

Hi! I have an older model on which the lights never turn green. For my charger it usually takes 12 hours (overnight) to charge up the battery pack. Once fully charged,I can mow for an hour or so. This probably doesn't help too much -- I guess you could test the battery with a voltmeter if you have one to see if it's actually charging. Good luck -- hope it works out...

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.

I don't think the light color is a working estimation of whether the battery is charged or not. I believe mine is always green, I usually look at the light strength to monitor it when its charging.

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!

With mine, all the green lights are on when it's fully charged, but now always. I have no idea what the red light means. It may be just for show. I wouldn't buy another one of these, though. It works 95% of the time. Sometimes I pull the battery off after a few hours, and it hasn't charged. It didn't come with any type of documentation.

The LED light on my unit remains red until the battery is charged, at which time, it then turns green. I don't know how a new battery would solve the problem. Is the unit actually charging the battery? It may be the LED light on the charger that is the problem.
