[Solved] JBL Xtreme Speaker Charging Guide: Battery Charging Time, Indicators & Tips

Hello,
I have not found anywhere in the JBL XTREME speaker manuals that were included in the charging information set:
- when will I know that the battery is charged?
- how much time should the speaker load?

I am asking for a detailed answer about charging if you know something about it.

The time of charging the battery at full discharge, ie when the device turns itself off is 3.5 hours, the duration of operation is about 15 hours depending on the volume and type of music. The level of charge is indicated by the diodes on the bottom of the loudspeaker, there are large discrepancies in the manual, says 2000 mAh and 5000 mAh, and 10,000 mAh on the manufacturer's website or in reviews, so the charging time can be much more than 3.5 hours. There were several posts on the forum that people with speakers from this manufacturer reported a problem with charging the battery after the situation in which the speaker turned itself off while playing because the battery is discharged, so it is better not to lead to such a situation and recharge the battery if we have the opportunity.

After all, all this information is in the instruction manual.

Actually there are diodes that are flashing while charging this speaker. However, I left the loudspeaker for 7 hours and the last LED was still flashing.
There is no information in the manual about when the user will know that his device is charged. What's more, there is no given time after which the loudspeaker will be charged. Unless Freedy you have one in which it is written is to share because such a statement does not help.

The first better found in the network, and delivered with the equipment - charging time of 3.5 hours. What do you complain about, do not you read the instructions?

And here you are wrong because I read. and I do not have a grudge. And what about the diodes when charging?

I received such answers from a JBL representative:

Quote:

LEDs on the speaker indicate the battery level, the fifth flashing white LED indicates the maximum charge.
Charging time to fully charge the battery needs 3.5 hours.

In the JBL Xtreme loudspeaker, you can hear the quiet noise caused by the power supply. This is the normal behavior of JBL wireless speakers.

I asked in detail but it did not help:

Hello,
The last LED should be permanently lit, if during charging the diode blinks, please disconnect the charging and check the diode's behavior. If it is steady, please check the battery life. If the diora still blinks, please connect for further charging.

As for me, the answers are not full. There is no information about whether the last diode during charging should flash or stay on. At my place it flashes even after 5 hours of charging. So you really do not know when the loudspeaker is fully charged. No sound signal or specification regarding LEDs, i.e. flashing / continuous light.

Does anyone know anything about this?

After all, you have clearly written whether to blink or shine and what to do as it blinks.
If the equipment is under warranty, please return it to the service for repair.
If it is not under warranty, please measure the feet and make basic measurements.
