I put it on a charger in the morning and the green light was on before I left for work in the afternoon.

I hope you feel better now. By the way, no: Cheap or Expensive Bicycle Helmets

Summary: We submitted samples of six helmet models to a leading U.S. test lab: three in the $150+ range and three under $20. The impact test results were virtually identical. There were very few differences in performance among the helmets. Our conclusion: when you pay more for a helmet you may get an easier fit, more vents and snazzier graphics. But the basic impact protection of the cheap helmets we tested equaled the expensive ones. Just look for a helmet that fits you well.
