ok...i went to turn my gun on the other day, i couldnt get it to come up to the safe screen, so i figured the battery was dead...so i went out, started my car and charged it for a half an hour....i went out and checked it again...and it was fully charged....doesnt that seem a little fast for it to be charging???

Note: if it matters i do not have the stock board in it, it is the newer LCD board....

Was it showing 888888, all the menus, then went blank?

it's just liek a cell phone battery....when you put it on charge for a few minutes it shows a full charge, it will just discharge really fast. I'd seriously recommend letting it get a full charge I think the LCD's were 7 hours.

warpedkid: yes it did show the prompt(all menus, etc)

emmit: i will give that a try

also, who makes a good regulated wall charger adapter, i bought one from pbgear, but it ended frying my board....

I just ordered a Cobra Wall charger, havent been able to use it, but on the cobra site it says it was approved by WDP and works and w/e, it's 30 bucks. When i get it i'll tell you how it works.
