Should I do the 12 hour charge? Should I have to do the 12 hour charge every time or only the first three times? The first time I only did 4 hours and it worked ....... me thinks....
anyways.... The charge-====== Ligtning bolt is on so I know it is charging....

One thing that you should probably consider is that the smart battery chip inside the battery calibrates itself as you use it. You need to go down very near full discharge at least once so that the smart battery chip knows where empty actually is.
This is just a wild guess, but the smart battery chip may now be telling you how far you are from the charge state where you started the top up from????????? As far as the charge time goes, you only really need to charge as long as it takes to reach full charge.
