Anyone know why these would turn off and not back on, just blink and stay off-has been working for a month. All connections tight and getting power.

This is also a fail safe if you have too many volts going to the unit. Are you using a stock adapter or a different one you purchased?

make sure that the power adapter is strong enoughi had the problem that the adapter that came with it wasnt strong enough

Did you resolder it? It might be the solder connections it might be cold solder or shorted

Mine did that and I just played with the remote for a while and it starting working again try hitting the RED , GREEN or BLUE button

Same here. They just stopped working for me a week ago. Green light is on showing a full charge, but that's it.

Mine does not do this. That sounds bizarre. There is no way to turn them off manually. They shut off on their own (automatic in case you leave it in a rush) or by unplugging it...so if you know it has done its own shutdown, I'd maybe think about returning it. Sounds like a wire cross.

Never had that problem. Did you try plugging it into a different outlet. Some are on light switches. Sorry I haven't more help to give.

I had the same problem. I just kept turning them on and off until they finally worked. I finally returned them for a myriad of other reasons. I now have the RIFG and they are wonderful.

My unit did appear to stop functioning at one point. I just fully unplugged for a few days and re-plug in and all was good. Maybe try unplugging for a few hours. I just forgot about it after unplugging.

I have never had a burn-out (yet). Are you sure they are burned out? Have you tried them on another socket?

"and Have EXTRA patience when first turning them on outta the BOX, it takes several resets and trys, took about 20 minutes ! IT WILL COME ON..."What are you talking about?!?! Maybe you had issues, but I never did at all, I took it out and charged the battery like you are supposed to, and then it worked perfectly afterwards and has ever since (just over a year now). I never heard of anyone else having this initial start-up issue, I was a regular on the Archos Fans forums and never saw multiple discussions on this (meaning it was *not* a big problem that lots of people were having). Don't try and tell people that *everyone* will have this issue happen to them, that is so not cool...

You're supposed to leave them plugged in, or at least remember to check their charge once a month or so, but you should try and charge it up. If its just low it can take a full day to power up. If it's dead, it would have set off a loud warning beep as it was going past the point of no return.

Well, Chad. The ones i bought work Perfect, No Issues. Sounds like your problem could be a Ground Issue? I guess i would hook them up, one at a time, to a good 12volt battery. makeing sure if the problem follows the same light. then...take that light apart and look for any possible Faults?

Check your connection. unplug them and re plug them and try to listen for it to snap in place or feel if connects Same issue I had on one of them It didn't conect all the way and make sure they look wired up correctly as your old one if no return for new ones

I am not sure how long they work maybe there was a surge in power. That caused it to not work so well anymore. might be helpful to put it on a surge the next time you get one.

It may be you are in over ride mode. Turn off at switch for a minute then turn on. If you turn them off and on again quickly they stay on. If that does not work check setting on light

Do you have them set to "On"? If not, set them to On and then you can turn them off and on with the remote. Or check to make sure nothing is covering the battery, or that you try a new battery. I have never had problems with mine working.

Check your connections. I have found that these lights are finicky. The slightest movement (like replacing a bulb) affects the connections. Play with the connections when on and you'll find they work.
