My Epson 800 just arrived a couple of days ago. First thing it said to do was charge batteries 3 times. They said it would take about 3 hrs. first time then unplug and do again, then one more time. I figured about 6 to 7 hrs total according to manual. First time only took about 2 hrs. and other times just a few minutes. I can't get the camera to work as long as manual says. Like 100 pictures with LCD on. On a full charge ????? I can get about 15 pictures and thats with messing around with the buttons etc. before it starts cutting out and the low bat. indecater is on the screen. Anyone else having this problem?

Re: battery charge
Put 2 batteries in flashlight and ran completely dead. Charged them in 1hr. 50min. Pulled plug per directions for first time charge and plugged back in. Light went out in about 10 - 15 min. Plugged in third time with same results. Is this normal. Haven't tried them in camera yet.

My Sennheiser HDR 140 headphones charge whenever you hang them on the charger. The charger will "trickle" charge them to keep the batteries fully charged. If you find when you use it the batteries discharge quickly it's time to replace them.
My batteries are about 2 years old and I still get about 8-10 hrs of use before needing to recharge
I ran into the problem and it was corrosion on the battery terminals. on the inside against the battery. also check the the terminals for good connection.
Stay warm
it clearly said on the box it will play for 12 hours at 50% volume is your charger in good shape most people pull on the wire of the charger not good for it. Did you turn your radio off to let it charge? the last thing did you let the radio charge for a long time more than the manual said. this can cause the life of the battery to die sooner and not hold charge anymore.
Hi,
The problem lies with the battery. If you are within the 90-day warranty, the unit can be replaced. If you are out of the 90-day warranty, contact the manufacturer for a replacement battery. Keep in mind, to replace the battery, if you are handy you can do it yourself with a soldering gun. If not, take it to your local repair facility. It should not take more then 5 minutes to replace the battery. The cost for a battery is a $6.00 Money Order. Contact Coby Consumer Care / Technical Support

Hi... I have the same problem, I got my shaver 2 days ago, and it is written that you need to charge it for 4 hrs in the first time and then the light willl start blinking as an indication that the batery is ful !!! I noticed the following :
1- After 15 Mintues the light simply turn off without any blinking !!!
2- The shaver is charged and runs for almost 1 hrs !!!!
Is this is a fault ??? shall I bring back ...
Please answer me what was your case ??
This happened to me also. In the manual it says the flashing light means that the battery/charger needs to be cleaned, or if that doesn't work, it is dead. My husband called customer service and they actually sent us a new battery which we recieved within a few days. The number is 1 800 706 2534.
