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

Sounds as though the charger transformer may be shot, test it with a tester or hold it to your ear see if it buzzes, or feel it see if it gets warm. Check connections also. Assuming of course it is the correct charger for the batteries.JT

You bet!! Replace it as soon as you can. The hot could cause sparks, then fire! Good luck!

i had the same problem and I send it back and got the new one. These chargers are so sensitive

Your battery is most likley dead or fried, your best bet is to get a new one. If you still continue to have the same problem, get a new charger. I hope this helps you!

Do not leave it connected to the charger when you are not using it. If that is not it then contact Stanley..........

Mine has become really warm when charging but nothing hotter than what you can comfortably hold bare handed. That was after about 4 hours of continuous charging. The battery I was trying to charge must have had a drain on it while I was trying to charge it. I didn't disconnect the battery leads. I use this charger quite often and has worked great for me.

No, it's not normal, you should send it back, mine has always charged to 100% in the 3 months that I been using it.

Yes it does get very hot while charging and mine only lasted for a month. I would say spend a little more and buy a durable one. That's wat I learnt the hard way.

I would report that and exchange it for a new one. That can cause an electrical fire.

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 temp is set to high. set it lower. If it less then 1 month old return it. If you don't have the packaging then reorder and return old with new package.

I have not experienced that, so i would guess there is a problem with the battery or your charger. I know that chargers can damage a battery, so you might check that.

Suire you checked that the charger wasn't the problem. I would contact Sena and see about returning the bad unit.

I had the same problem. My first attempt at solving it was to order a new charger from Newton. It seems to have solved it for now, although now I have to keep is continually charging to keep the charge level in the green area. I'm not sure why.
