Did everyone try charging the unit while it is powered off? It seems to make a different to me. I bought three(3) and so far all battery seemed to be decently averaged out around 2.5 hours or so (mainly net surfing and video conferencing) after few months of usage. Power on while charging seems like charges don't hold too well even it shows 100% charged. Try it out...it may make some different.

It's probably a defect in the battery. If it's still under warranty, you need to send back. If you purchased through amazon, they should replace it without issue. The battery should last for more than a full day with normal usage.

Re read the manual . There are times you have to put the manual switch on for a few days to charge it to FULL capacity ....especially id you have the second battery attached to it. It always runs down slowly over a coule of months and will not charge if it is not down to @ 75% -80%. Then the manual setting will charge it to full. It may have come to you almost fully charged. Hope that helps. One more thing ..write or call My E they are very helpful w/ any issues.

i belive, you did everything correctly. It is something worng to the battery. Try to recharge again, just charge it whole night and try again. If problem is not resolved, just send it back, if its possible

How do I find out what is wrong with this battery? I did not know that you aren't supposed to use the regular battery tenders on these kind of batteries and I left it charging for a couple of days and now it is beyond dead. So if the tender didn't kill it, apparently (also read just now in the questions section) if it drops below 8% charge it is no longer anything but a paperweight? So tell me now if I should just go out and buy a new battery after wasting my money on the 1 ride I got out of this battery.

Should be around 8 hours. I found mine wasn't working so I open up the battery compartment and found the battery wasn't hooked up. Once I hook the battery up to the unit it work perfectly. Your battery could be disconnect hence is not holding the charge. Worth looking into this. Good luck.

As others have said I didn't have a problem. However I did charge it over night. The battery life is rather short.

Hello, Naser. chances are, like me, you got a "reconditioned" battery, and not a brand new one from Toshiba directly, correct? As I had found out, after about a year from purchase, my Toshiba battery would only hold about 90 minutes of a charge, so I went to Amazon, and got a replacement. I was thrilled when I first charged it up and got over 3 hours of battery life! After 3-4 months, however, it dropped to less than an hour! I complained to the company here in CA. and was told that it was a reconditioned battery, which means that it is not as good as an original! If you want to pay over $100.00 for a new battery, contact Toshiba directly, but even they will not guarantee their batteries either! Sorry for your problems! Greg Stone

If you gave it time to fully charge, there shouldn't be a problem. I've had no problems with mine holding a charge. Contact Amazon. If it's faulty, they'll replace it quickly.

Try throwing it in the freezer overnight. Then thy re charging. If it still holds no charge. I would return it seller. It probably is defective cell/battery.

I believe they recommend taking it off charge when it is fully charged but I have ofter put it on overnight so I'm sure I've charged it for several hours after it is 100% and I've never had a problem. I think that all battery mfgs. typically direct users to stop charging when it is full as a precaution.

It didn't take that long to charge my new battery. I would think a few hours would be good. Maybe you got a new battery that was bad?? Hope this helps...

It has been awhile, but initial charge of 40 hours is too much. You have a defective product. Possibly a bad battery.

Mine holds it's charge for a couple of days. You must have a faulty battery as mine has been awesome (touch wood)Did you charge it right up at first? After that should not stay on charger for longer than 4 hours.

did you fully charge the battery before starting, using the unit, instructions suggest min 4 hours of charge time, but overnight is best

Wow i thought i was the only one... i bought it just over a year and a half and mine has stopped holding its charge aswell. I believe a new battery would solve the problem though. If you find one please let me know aswell.
