HBH-600 charging time issue |

Apart my first HBH-600 charge (1 mth ago), lasted approx 1,5 h as stated in the manual I'm experiencing a pretty small time of charging...
After I had my mobile serviced for 1 month (and the BT h'set parked in a drawer half charged), I found the HBH battery completely empty and put it on charge. It lasted far less than 30' until green stable light. The battery blinking status showed full charge.
Just after 1 day of usage (few minutes of speaking, some pairing and voice dialing recording..) the HBH went off. Few minutes before it was showing 2 blinks (half charge..).
Next charge lasted the same as before (approx less than 30'...)
QUESTION:
How long is your red-to-green led time? Is it worth continuing the charge till the recommended 1,5 h or the HBH cuts off any charge to its Lithium battery as soon as the green led comes up ?
Thank you very much!
Macco

my hbh-600 charges for about 1 hour and then the talking time never goes over 30 minutes l don't know what to say but the battery sucks,on other models the talking time is over 2 hours e.g hbh-660.

I'll agree!
When taking mine HBH-600 from charging, "talk-time" are about 1 hour. Standby time are - when no calls - up to 4 hours. And that "sucks"!
Had a Jabra before this, it had talk-time about 1,5 hour but standby time was up to 6 hours......But it was "sick", it shut down totally after every incoming calls, - and THAT was irritating!

@mathios:
when you speak of 1 hr charge it means that the red charging led becomes green after 1 hr, does it?
Or maybe that you disconnect the HBH after 1 hr (maybe some time after the red led switches to green) ?
It's important to me to understand if my HBH can't take all the charge...
@rufo: thank you. You didn't specified how much is your red-to-green led transition time.
Has some1 already brought his HBH-600 to a Service Center and had it repaired for that battery issue? Mine is completely new (third charge)!!

It takes about 35 minutes to charge my HBH-600 from empty red to full green.
But will something "harm" happends with the battery if i don't take it "off" charge?
(I have obviously a little brain - 'cause i sometimes forget to take it off when i go to bed....)
