how do you know if your charger going bad
1251049
On a new Swivel Sweeper, you can use your sweeper for days without having to recharge. If the battery is going bad, it starts slowing down and you have to recharge frequently. I just bought a replacement battery from Amazon, and it sucks. I can barely get through one use before having to put it back on the charger. Will probably just go buy a new sweeper.

My mother said the sweeper had worked the day before but then sounded slower. When she charged the battery and put it on the sweeper, it didn't work. We really didn't know, but took the chance to order the battery replacement. When it arrived, she charged it then put it on the sweeper and it worked.

Well, when I tried to charge my battery, it immediately stopped. The red light on the charger went off after two seconds. So, I just used my old charger. The old one worked fine, the red light stayed on until the battery was charged.

Buy a new one but don't let this one explode. Check your charging ckt sounds like over charge or short

I have been using the charger for a while now with no problems. My phone is up to date.

First is the battery new or relative new? If the battery is older it could not be taking a charge, the green light will stay on until the battery is charged. Second, if the battery is relative new and the charger has been on it for 12-24 hours and still green then the charger most likely is defective. You will have a better idea than I because of the age of both the charger and the battery. Note: The chargers do go bad after just a few years and you will get the results you explained. Will be glad to help more if you wish to give more information due to age of each item. Of course it would be an opinion but an educated one, I am a certified electrician. Maybe this will help..... either one is bad news because you can purchase the whole unit as inexpensive as you can purchase a Charger or Battery!

If connected to battery charger or battery is bad. Should be a red light while charging .

The charger has warning lights to show when the battery is charged or if it´s too hot and it should be removed from charger (or even when it is defected). In general, I keep it charging for 3-4 hours. It gets fully charged without overheating.

The charger is a little lose it happend to me TONSSS OF TIMES. All you have to do is make sure the end piece is plugged in extra tight and wait for the blue light to go on. If that doesnt work then you might want to replace it.

My best guess is to contact the company. They seem to be very active in gathering consumer support as they e-mailed me twice asking me to rate their product. I gave them two separate reviews, both rating the product as excellent and I am sure they will replace the charger.

I didn't keep mine long enough to find out. Both units I got failed after about a week (or less), so I asked for a refund. The failure was in the socket where you plug in the unit for charging. Pieces of it came out (both units) such that you couldn't plug it in and charge it anymore.

The only time that I have had this problem is when the battery is running low. One thing I've had to remember, if it's telling you it has more or less than one hour, the quality gets a little dicey. I've ordered this item quite a few times, mostly because I've lost them and this product is awesome. I can tell you that this was a consistent issue with each one, but at least I knew that I could fix it by putting it on the charger. If your's is fully charged then it might be going bad. Hope this helps.

I have been charging mine for years without any problems...I would think it would be the charger that is not working properly

Mine is the same way. It seems this is a weak point in the charger's design.

It needs a new batttery, or the charger is bad.Check the volt output on charger.

Without knowing the state of your battery it would be hard to say. Try the recondition button to see if you can get the battery to work, press the large button until recond light is lit. It takes a while to recondition the battery. Modern battery chargers will not charge bad batteries. If you started with a dead battery, then recondition may help. If the battery was okay then you have a bad unit. I would try it on a good battery before sending it back

Gosh. I wish I had an answer for you. Mine never worked. The blue light came on and that was it. I never got the opportunity to try it out. I tried different chargers thinking my charger was bad. Truthfully, the thing is a piece of junk.

Check on the battery occassionally while it's charging. Some times if the battery is to old, it will overheat and melt itself to the charger. I had it happen. If it hasn't been charged in quite awhile, the hot pack signal will come on. I took the battery out and let it sit for awhile. Put in back in the charger the next day and it fully charged.

When you plug it in with a dead battery, the light should be red., When it is done charging, the light will be green. If your charger does not do this, you have a bad charger. I had bought a lower priced model, and it did not work. So be sure to get a quality charger.
