Contact the manufacturer, information on the box and literature. They replaced ours.

I would guess you just got a defective battery. My experience has been fantastic. I use it almost every night. The beam is brighter than any comparable flashlight I've ever owned. I haven't ever had any problem with the battery holding a charge, and it lasts for a long time. Did you charge it fully before use? You should have. Also, the instructions say to plug it back into the charger after every use. I do this even if I only use it for two or three minutes. Unless you've had it a long time, Black and Decker is pretty good about standing behind their warranties. I'd give them a call.

Left mine playing its games until it was "Dead" flat. Rapid charged it via usb until it said it was full and then reset the time and date. Its behaved perfectly since!!! Odd but it seems to have worked! Good luck to all :0)

When you first plug it in, the charging symbol should show up on the screen. If it doesn't, use the AC adaptor. If that doesn't work, you may have a bad battery, or a problem with the unit itself.

Had a similar issue; it had to be replaced. Based on what I was told when I called them, the initial batch of these went out with this sort of problem. In my case, while it still worked, it would no longer charge and was not recognized by the computer's USB port (I tried it on several different computers). As I recall, mine did not have a model number on it, which was their indication that it was one of those in the first batch.

The base unit had indicator lights showing when it is and isn't charging. As well as power and mode

I suggest that you contact the seller and let them know that you have a defective device. I did this and they emailed me a shipping label and returned my money. Mine would only charge my phone 10% then it died.

You may need a new charger. have them check it in the store. We got a dud one time.

This sounds like what happened to my first Iriver. The fault was in the charging circuit. You could try and perform a reset by holding the power slide across for about 20 seconds while it is plugged in to charge. If this does not work you will need to return it for repair to Iriver.Hope this helpsChris

Check to see if there is a problem with the cable... if you have the dock try a different usb cable... if both a new cable and the dock fail and it will not charge with the usb cord separately then the unit is most likely broken and needs service by Sony

Mine won't charge anymore either. I think the product may be defective. How are you charging your device?

Sounds like you might have a dud...if your outlet is on. Bad power supply or something in the charging process...

I found out it wasn't the unit - the cord/charger was bad. A lot cheaper to replace than the main unit. If you know someone else with the same model, try borrowing their charger cord and testing it with your unit. Odds are that's the problem. Good luck.

Mine was totally uncharged and I plugged it in and started using .. It was ok .. I dont know about indefinitely but certainly for those 10 minutes, it worked without a hitch.

We just had a similar incident with one of ours. we just let it run itself down till there was NO battery life left. I almost threw it out because I thought it was broken! I decided to charge it one more time to see if I could get it to work and it had reset itself and came on and worked properly. just let it go till it is dead dead dead and then try recharging it and see if that works

I had a similar problem, I let the unit on until it was completely out of power than recharged it. That solved the problem.

Buying a battery might be a cheap fix. Make sure the charging unit is plugged in and it lights up when the unit is placed in the charger. If the unit is new, send it back.

The same thing happened to me and I bought a replacement charger. That worked for a while but now will no longer charge the tablet. I say return the tablet, that's what I need to do.
