  • Cree 1600 headlight help

    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??

      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.

            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

                  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.
