Charging Vector Devices with the Vector Dock (S8, S7/G7 & T7)

How to Charge Vector Devices with the Vector Dock

1. Place the Devices into their individual charge case slots in the Vector Dock. 
2. Connect the Power Adapter to the Power Input port found on the Vector Dock.
3. Connect the Power Adapter to a Power Supply.

Vector S8

The Dock itself must be On or in Standby, and connected to a mains power source in order for Devices to charge. 

1. The Devices will begin charging and will have their Battery Status light illuminate based on it's current charge percentage - see Vector 8 Device LED Behaviour (S8)

Battery Saver Protection

To protect the long term health of the S8's battery, if the device is left on charge for longer than 5 days, it will enter it's battery saver charge state. When in this state, the S8 will reduce it's target maximum charge to ~85%.

To exit the battery saver mode, the Device needs to be removed from the dock or powered on.  Once the S8 has exited battery saver, it will charge to 100%. 

Vector S7/G7 Dock

The Dock itself does not need to be turned on in order for Devices to charge. However, the dock must be connected to a mains power source.

1. The Devices will begin charging and will have their Charging Light illuminate Solid red. Devices that are fully charged will have their Charging Light illuminate Solid green.

   Note: Vector Devices will only charge when the Vector Dock is connected to a mains power source.

To troubleshoot charging issues, see Vector Devices Slow or Unable to Fully Charge.

Vector T7 Dock

The Dock itself must be On or in Standby, and connected to a mains power source in order for Devices to charge. 

1. The Devices will begin charging and will have their Battery Status light illuminate Solid red. Devices that are fully charged will have their Battery Status Light illuminate Solid green.
    

   Note: when the Dock is powered Off but it is connected to a power source, the dock will charge itself, however, it will not charge the devices.

What is the Expected Battery Life of the Vector Device?

The Vector Device range (S7/G7 and T7) expected battery life is approximately 6 hours when fully charged.

Battery Life can be affected by long-term degradation of the battery as well as Device Settings such as Bluetooth use and Wireless data use.

How Long Does it Take to Charge the Vector Device?

The Vector Device takes approximately 90-120 minutes to fully charge from a fully depleted state.
