I'm fairly certain it's because it is still drawing power from your computer, the USB ports generally don't turn off. If you want it to stop, you will have to unplug the mic.

It's because power can still be pulled from the USB port even when your pc is off, similar to how you can charge your phone when your computers off. I simply unplug the cable from my nessie when I'm not using it.

Even though a computer may be powered down power is still being pushed through it. I suspect that because its powered by USB that it does that. However I could be wrong.

Oh, the answer also applies to turning the light on and off. However, I have cases where I turn the light on and the app loses the connection/sync (to the server/controller). Here the light remains on until sync is re-established. In many cases resync requires unpluging the controller replugging it back in (so power cycling it). So if you are away from home the light remains on until you return! There is no timer to automatically turn it off.

I have had trouble. My laptop does not stay on unless it is plugged up. This has been happening since I first purchased it.

Yes the light does stay on if the unit is plugged in, this indicates that the unit is working and charge is available to be used.

Same thing happens to mine. However as soon as I turn on a connected device it lights back up and is connected so I think it's probably a power save mode.

Mine goes completely off. I can't imagine it is the bulb causing power to stay on, something else must be in play.

Mine does the same thing. It is charged when I unplug it later. I wish the LED indicator would stay on.

The light should stay on. ..could be from a dead battery, make sure to take the battery out between using otherwise it will die really quickly.

If you turn it on, unplug it and plug it again then you have to turn the light on again because it's still be off when you replug it

Mine does the same. It is just to indicate a full charge and will turn off eventually. The power used to use that LED is so minimal it has little to no effect on the power stations battery.

I don't think it really shut off, I think it simply think it went to sleep. Push any button for a few seconds and the display will light up and all activity should be reflected. Happy walking.

The light is supposed to turn off when the battery is charged. If it only works when plugged in, that defeats the purpose. I'd contact the maker. Sounds like yours is defective. BTW, did some long workshops this summer. did recharge during the lunch breaks. The battery seems to last about 7.5 hours.

What I meant was that if you put the computer to SLEEP or into HIBERNATION mode then the blue led for Sabrent stays on but it will NOT stay on if you totally shut the computer down or turn the power strip OFF of course! Apologies if caused confusion!!

Maybe try unplugging it and then plug it back in...usually when the green light flashes it is because of the timer...it will automatically shut down after an hour then you have to power off and then on again....let me know if this helps if not we can try something else

Same here. The light will not turn off unless I loosen the battery compartment. ...but this doesn't do me any good when I'm underwater and want to turn the light off.

The blue light is on if you have the computer plugged into a wall outlet. You can try unplugging the computer and removing and replacing the battery. Then plug it back in and see if it will boot up.

The light feature is always on when it's running. Once it empties out and shuts off, the light will go out.
