Are you using the supplied charge cable and plug?

Should be quite quick, unless plug output is low? Does it alert you to slow charging?

Times I've had this is when I'm using random plug adaptors...

Assume it's fairly new? If it's old battery could be on it's last legs.

No alerts while charging. Also its only 3 months old. I was looking at replacing charger and idea of what plug output should be
