I plug in my Surge to recharge, it says fully charged.  I unplug it, and it shuts down.  I plug it back in, and battery indicates full charge.  Thanks!

Thanks!  After speaking online to a tech, it was determined that my battery failed - so I opted for a new Ionic!  Thanks for your assistance and your reply.  Be well ~ Ray
