Charge it overnight and try again. Ours showed that it was not charged at all but worked fine all of the sudden. We had not charged it for months. Other than that I do not know.

I've never had that problem. I typically only had to charge it every few weeks, and even when it dies it turns right back on.

Sounds vaguely familiar. If you press the button, does the light turn on at all? Have you tried removing the batteries, waiting a few moments, then reinstalling the batteries? If it's the problem I think it is, I think it's the light's circuitry going into a protection mode. When you charge the light, do you plug the charger cable into power source, then plug the mini-USB plug into the light? Or do you connect the light to the cable first, then connect the cable to a power source? If the former, then I suggest switching to the latter to avoid the problem. I suspect it's an issue of the powered cable touching part of the light it shouldn't if you're not inserting it "cleanly" into the charging port, tripping a protection mode.

Try throwing it in the freezer overnight. Then thy re charging. If it still holds no charge. I would return it seller. It probably is defective cell/battery.

Try the light on a fully 'charged' battery. There is a 'shut off' timer that will shut it off but it should be longer than a minute or two. Perhaps the timer is defective.

Interesting, actually mine did not turn on either, however, I just assumed mine was to replace the battery. Which I have not done yet. I have had mine for 6 months or so. Did you change the battery?

Mine was fully charged but would not charge. Not sure if it was the battery or charger. Sent everything back for a refund. These knockoff lights are really hit or miss.

First try reattach in the lcd cable but if that doesn't work then when you buy a new lcd test it by plugging it in before install an and make the battery has a chargeSteven

If the light is properly hooked up to a 110 volt line (household current) and the battery is properly hooked up (see instruction book) then it should charge automatically. If it no longer holds a charge then you would need to replace the battery. If you do a search for that model battery on Amazon you will find one for a reasonable price. Hope this helps.

I called the Samsung company, and he told me to keep it plugged in the wall, and eventually it was a steady light and it started to charge. I let it charge for a while and it was totally charged. So try this before you go out and buy a new battery.

I had a problem within 30 days where the light did not charge (it was on in the daylight so the sensor did not turn it off and the batteries discharged.) Lowe's replaced it. Make sure that the batteries are seated properly and that there is no corrosion on the contacts...

i have charged mine several times with no proplem. perhaps you want to check to make sure it was off when charged otherwise i know your bulb will take a hit. try turning on the side light and leave it on, even though it might not light up, it will discharge the overcharge if that is the problem good luck.

The light on mine turns off when it's dead. It also tasks around 3 hours when I charge mine. Yours might be broken.

I have the same the problem. It may common cause of battery. Got a new one last year. It works fine until now but I don't know for how long. Nothing you can do to make it works since it no longer hold charged.

Try charging the battery before buying a new battery. Mine needed replacing because the charge wouldn't last for more than 15min.

No i have been having problems with my battery also. In the manual it says that there is a small light that lights up when it is charging..i plugged it in accoarding to what the manual says and the light has never turned on. I charged the camera over night and it will only turn on it it is plugged into the charger....anyone have any advice on this?

Unfortunately, I have the same problem and no amount of charging is fixing it. It almost feels like there is actually no battery inside, or it used up its number of possible recharges. Returning it to Amazon. Will try one more time to order this thing.
