since the day i got it my angel has been reading 3/4 battery, and then yesterday it just died... i tried charging it and now its at full, but i'm not sure if it was trickle charging or charging... it was going
bar1,bar2,bar3,bar4 again and again, is this trickle? because it seemed like the gun was drained and in 2 hours it was full again

that is correct....however the manual says you should charge it for a full 7 hours before using it....also the first couple of charges you'll probably get a code 1 fault, there is no problems with this, just turn it off, and then turn it back on.

yes, it is the original battery.... time to save up for a new battery... damnit , oh yeah, and another thing.... i turned the gun and it was on safe and all of a sudden it fired off what was left in the reg from earlier that day....

did you buy the marker used? If so the previous owner probably did not know about nickel calcium batteries crystalizing if you dont drain it all teh way before charging. Other than the memory effect, it could be your wireing harness.

they crystalize? tell me more about this process, i just thought that they messed up and wouldn't charge full if you didn't drain 'em
