Hi
What could this be?
The laser is a power rock 200mw green from o-like.
The laser they sent didn't come with a battery as the laser was a replacement for one that malfunctioned, so i used the 18650 lithium rechargeable one that i have.
This is over a year old. Could this be the problem & how can i find out? The battery hasn't been used for a few months, so i put it on charge & surprisingly only took a while for the charger to go from red to green, i then tried it for a few burn tests & the laser dimmed. I then put the battery in charger again & it seems to want to charge again as the light is still red on charger!
Can a battery need a double charge! I've read on here a thread about dim lasers & battery issues!
The battery after no use for 2 months or so needed surprisingly hardly any charge time, less than an hour. Then i used the laser for maybe a minute in short bursts & the battery is now back on charge & has been for 30 mins, thats after 1 min of use after 1st charge! Old battery?
Help appreciated
