Why is the Power On Light Stay on when Unplugged on My Bright Way Charger # BRW77FR?
Question:
Hello etrailer: I have a some what new Bright Way Charger for my Dump trailer battery. Its just like your BRW77FR Model. It may not be a big deal but this morning I noticed that my Power On Light stay on when the AC power cord is no longer plugged in. Is this normal or does it need replacing?

I went ahead and called my tech at Bright Way, and he confirmed that there's a diode that prevents backflow from the battery to the charger on the Bright Way Switch Mode Battery Charger # BRW77FR. These are on all Bright Way models in order to make sure that the device does not leech off the battery. With that being said, the issue you are having is most likely the LEDs taking a couple minutes to dim after unplugging. As long as the device is functional in every other way, there is no replacement needed.
