Be very wary when following advice about the WF-139 chargers.

A lot of what is being said about this charger is complete and utter rubbish.

I've now spoken to more than a few people who have bought the WF-139s recently and are using them and are completely happy with them - go with current reviews and not ancient history.

Unfortunately, this 'rubbishing' has now got to the stage where some forum members are scared to recommend their purchases based on their own experience, because they get attacked and their opinion is belittled.

"A good WF-139 should flash red-green-red while charging" - This is complete tosh. None of mine do and I've now spoken to many people who have genuine WF-139 chargers that also don't flash in this manner.

I've also emailed Ultrafire directly about this.

I don't know why there is so much scaremongering, but a large part of it relates to a very poor thread on another forum, where some very dodgy unscientific testing took place.

I'm very sorry that you have been subject to this on what is otherwise a great and sensible forum.

You'll soon have a WF-139 and can let everyone know what you think of it.
