If that's the case, why is Uxcell packaging the Glacier w/ the 200-300 mA charger?
I bought mine directly from Uxcell and everything came in one box.

Because i sell lots of these players and know that the glaciers are supposed to be charged with a 500ma charger and not the standard 300ma. |
Ok, but then why did my Glacier come w/ the 200-300 mA charger? |
He's saying the 500mah are *better*, not that it cant be charged at 250-300mah. |
No, but he is saying that using this charger will degrade the life of the battery.
I would just like to see where he is getting these facts from....are there proven tests to conclude using a lower mA charger causes the battery life to degrade? |
Yes, and I think many of us who bought a Glacier are unwilling participants in that test. Clearly, there are many units suffering problems due to the battery, and that was so in one of my instances. He sells glacier-type players, and I believe he has said that he witnessed returns when the chargers used were 300mah, and 500mah chargers did not exhibit such problems, plus that the manufacturer of this player recommended the 500mah+. I think empirical evidence does count for something here, it is the basis of much of what we call science. That doesn`t conclude the 500mah is the better charge, but it does offer evidence of such. If someones interested in a test, and/or has some charing /boot problems or concerns about long battery life, they have only to try his 500mah charger! (Its quite cheap, actually, and had I not just bought a charger and known about that at the time, i,d have gotten that). |
So who is the manufacturer of the Glacier?
