indicator appears and fully recharges the battery each time (full

If the temperature of the Ni-MH battery rises, we would
temporarily close down the battery charging function in order to
extend the battery life. The charging process would continue if the
temperature drop to a certain level. If you prefer to cut short the
charging time, we would recommend you to turn off the power of
the system.
As for Li-Ion battery, there is no limitation since the temperature
will not rise during the charging process.
