itm60 Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 I've just got a new G10 system and have a couple of questions regarding charging: - the transmitter has been in the charger (firmly seated) for about 4 1/2 hours for its initial charge, but the LED is still flashing green (it never went to solid green). The transmitter is also feeling very warm. Is this normal for a first charge? - is it OK to leave the receiver connected to the power supply 24/7 (with the transmitter inserted)?

itm60 Posted December 28, 2019 Author Share Posted December 28, 2019 Today I took the transmitter off charge, used it for about 90 minutes and the red LED came on, indicating < 30 mins remaining charge. So I put the transmitter back into the base unit and the LED went straight to solid green - indicating fully charged. WTF???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrillow Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 If you can, I'd recommend returning if for exchange. If it's a new product, it should be considered defective and replaceable. The retailer should accommodate that. I don't think you should have to file a warranty claim against Line 6, if it was this way out-of-the-box. (Just layman's opinion, not a legal one...) I have read that it's recommended to leave the transmitter in the receiver and connected to power when not in use. If someone chimes in with different information, I'll try to find and cite the source where I read this. Good luck! And be careful with that micro-usb connector -- have you read any threads on that yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itm60 Posted January 1, 2020 Author Share Posted January 1, 2020 Thanks - I've contacted the reseller and requested an exchange. Yes I started reading about issues with the micro-connector while researching this problem. This will be sitting in the same spot in my study (no gigging), so hopefully it will be resilient enough for me, but I am beginning to wonder whether I should have gone for the Boss WL-50 :0( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrillow Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 I've been very satisfied with my G10, although I'm only a casual user. I have played a couple of gigs with it and had no problems. It sounds great, IMO, and the range is suitable for my needs. Hope yours also works to your satisfaction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
