Why my device is not charging?
There is more than one reason that can cause a device to not charge. To make sure we find the root cause for the problem or identify if your device is really defective, please follow the troubleshooting steps:
The light still shows red after the device was charged
- Choose a reliable power supply
- You can plug the USB of your cable into a USB port. (e.g Laptop, phone charger)
- Test if the USB port is working with another by plugging another device, like your phone.
- Change the cable
- Try to use another cable that you have at home.
- Make sure you are plugging the cable all the way in
- Test the connection between the cable and your Pebblebee device.
- Test the connection between the cable and the USB port on your power supply.
- Let it charge overnight
- Give the devices plenty of time to recharge. We suggest to let them charge overnight to guarantee a full battery recharge.
- Check for lights
- If your device is not defective and the charge is not broken, a light will turn on your device when you plug it into a power source.
- Your device is charging if the lights pulsate green for the Finder 2 and Found, or the charger change color from green to on your Black Card.
For Pebblebee Black cards:
- Check if you insert the card in the right orientation. The two yellow dots on the card need to be aligned with the two dots on the charger.
- The Black Card charger without the card should show a green light. Once you correctly place your Black Card, the light will turn red, and it means it is charging.
- The light on the charger will change back to green once your device is charged. Please let the device charge a couple of extra hours before removing it.
