It says on the charger thing that goes in the wall, I think it is 12 hours for a full charge.

Take the Battery Mah rating, divide that by the Charger output, and that will give you the length of time.

Example-- Check the back of the wall plug for the charger. It will have an output rating (ex. output 500 Mah). If you have a 1500 Mah cell in your ignitor, take 1500 (Battery Mah), divide that by 500 (Charger output) and you get 3. That is how many hours to get a full charge. If a battery is NEW and being charged for the first time, you should let it charge for 10 hours, or overnight, to ensure a full charge.

I have charged mine for 2 hours and it has lasted me a week! Usually I just put it on the charger the night before and it was fine for a whole day of racin.


Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

most of those wall chargers are around 150mah and the cheapy batts that come with those igniters are around 800-1000mah so just throw it on for about 10 hours and it'll be definitely fully charged.

150mah times 6 hours= 900mah, so just charge it a little longer to be sure.
