The LED indicates when being charged by pulsing. Right now mine is pulsing like crazy as I charge it as I forgot and left it on until it ran totally down. When it stops pulsing it is charged.

I found that, for me, at 300 hours, I wasn't crazy about the sound of the Predator, and I have stated this in my review. After that things started to improve and the journey was fun, after I looked back at it because the sound was good and kept getting better though there were changes up and down.

yes Jamato8, i have read all your post.
Great thread.
so, i'll continue the burning process.

For anadin, first change start after 50 hours (sound become more stable and homogene, but no as i want, see my post ).

For the dac,sound'll improve really after 200 hours.

the way is long but worth the value.

Mine has never pulsated. Always solid red when it's on. Anyone else want to weigh in?

I'm looking forward to the changes -thanks to your review jamato. I have about 40 hours too. Sounds pretty good so far to these untrained ears.

 

[Rico67]

It does? I'm not completely sure since I think I just went through my first full discharge but the unit just shut itself off.


I'll check it, not sure of the info with predator.
Sure only for the Hornet.

 

[jamato8]

There is no indicator that the battery is getting low, the Pred just shuts down but does not discharge the battery to a harmful level. The pulsing, when charging gets much less noticeable after the unit has been charging for a half hour or so and you have to look close to notice the now slight pulse. I normally don't even pay attention to it but just plug it in and do whatever I was doing, like what I am doing right now. :^)

Ah, okay. Not a concern really as long as there's a safeguard. I just wanted to know. I'm very aware of the dangers Li-ion's. I've seen one explode due to no protection circuitry.

And thanks Rico67 for checking it out but jamato confirms what I witnessed.

At 43 hours burn in, bass has started to tighten up and it doesn't sound as flabby.

 

[Rico67]

my light never pulsates either, but no problem. Just rechqarge on a regular basis and I'm OK

 

[Rico67]

mine pulsates and i can heard it with my headphone during the process until baterrie is full.

 

[robojack]

Mine pulsates when charging (when it's switched on and plugged in), enough for me to know that it's charging.

 

[Rico67]

I want say like you Robojack, but do you heard it when it's pulse ?

 

[robojack]

Good question. Honestly, I don't ever hear it pulsating when it's charging, whether it be with my cans or IEMs.

 

[Rico67]

I think it's normal to heard this pulsation noises when it charging,but i just want to know if it's the same thing for everyone, because i haven't read this information on the forum.
With the hornet, there is no noise whent it charging (but it's not an internal ion batterie).
