Did you have the gun turned on?It should cascade charging across the screen not prwn.Did you charge it in a car if so the car has to be running.I always tripple charge my guns when it goes safe i turn it off then on again and i do this 3 X.

gun was not turned on during charging, i didnt think the car had to be running...thats not cool leaving my car running for 4hrs....another way perhaps???

only way is to turn on the car and the marker and let it charge. or buy a house plug for the charger from www.fixmyangel.com and charge it at home. but the marker has to be turned on to charge it.

the gun is being sold to my local shop is why im asking (from me) and the next perosn that gets it will prolly make the same mistake that i did, i bought a new battery because of this...anyway thanks for the help, i will no longer be a angel owner =( gettin a mini cause im a gun *****
thanks again

You should not have to have the car running when charging the battery. If you plug it in and turn on the marker it should /will charge like that it is onlyis using a small amout from your car.

You don't need to have the car running, however you DO need to have the gun turned ON. How do you tell it's charging? Well... the little red led on the charger will be on, and the LCD should read "CHRG" and the battery should cascade.
