Cree 1600 headlight help

[chris435]

Has any one got one of these? Just got one, used it last night till nearly flat, put it on charge for a while, then took it off and it's the same as I put it on, is the green light ment to be always light on the plug??

I will be charging mine for the 1st time tonight so if i work it out, I will report back.

had the same problem with mine. the chargers are terrible and the plug adapter has no fuse in it either cheap and nasty and dangerous.
i just bought a seperate charger where you take the batterys out and dock them for a tenner.

Mine is the same it's the charger! Something wrong with them. I found 1 that fitted the headlamp and now it charges perfect

Thanks for your replies, where can I get a charger? Or a separate one?

 

[TeamTrip]

I don't know where I got mine from ie shop. But take it to any electrical shop that sells chargers probably BNQ you might be able to get 1 there

thats the one but id still get an adaptor with a fuse in it

donot use the 4.7V batteries they might damage the headlamp because of the higher voltage, you need to get a battery with a higher mah number for them to last longer, but they will take longer to charge.
