BOTW Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 I've been noticing that the light on my Ninebot S2 charger never turns green as it should when the charge reaches 100%... It is not a big deal, but I am afraid to fry my batteries. Suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The green light starts once the charge current drops below some charge current threshold. This takes some (?1-3?) hours after charge % displays 100%.

BOTW Posted July 2, 2020 Author Share Posted July 2, 2020 (edited) I think I left it plugged for like 90 minutes, but as the battery was showing 100% I thought it was going to be fine. So... what I am wondering now is if I should wait for the charger to get green or if when the battery shows 100% I am good to go.

So... what I am wondering now is if I should wait for the charger to get green For a full charge and cell balancing - yes! Maybe even some time after the green led shows up. Depends on the current threshold of your charger. 23 minutes ago, BOTW said: or if when the battery shows 100% I am good to go. Once it shows 100% the first time the C(onstant)V(oltage)/saturation stage of charging starts. This is the stage were balancing happens. At the start of this stage the cells are charged to about 85%.
