I bought a 150mW Cyber laser from Lazerer with the battery and charger. How long does it take to charge the battery and what color is the indicator light supposed to be when you start charging and when the battery is finished charging? It's the 18650 battery and charger. Thanks alot
 





The light is red and turns green eventually. I doubt the ultrafires provided are protected so don't try to charge them overnight.

As he says dont leave them unattended. Ultrafire are not a brand you should trust(or any company ending in Fire). Monitor the batteries while charging, making sure they dont get too hot. You dont want them to overcharge or they can turn your laser into a pipe bomb. I would suggest getting some Panasonic 3100mAh 18650 batteries and charger from LarryDFW's website. They should take from 2-6 hrs to charge. Also take readings of the charge, i have had a few stop holding a charge. I still have them since i have no where to get rid of them...

I think he meant to say that any company with "fire" in the name such as Ultrafire or Trustfire are NOT to be trusted. The little double negative in there may have confused you. :beer:
 
It's all good. I'm pretty sure he could understand what you meant, I just have a habit of being a grammar Nazi sometimes :P.
