My girlfriends did the same thing, and what I did was drain the battery down using the led light. Once it was almost dead I charged it for 2 days, and now it seems to be working fine.

Hi Mary, I am sorry to hear your mobile only lit up for one night. You should see underneath of the top(where the top of the strings are located) there is an on/off switch. Please turn it to the "OFF" position for at least 24-48 hours and then turn it back to the "ON" position. This will allow the item to fully charge. If you are still having trouble, please email us so we can locate your order and take care of this for you. -Cory, Wind & Weather Customer Service

I also charged mine for 24 hours, actually longer cause I charged it in the guest bathroom. Anyway, I pressed the button and while holding it you slide it up and it turns on. Maybe charge it longer and if that doesn't work it might be a defected one. Hope you can figure it out, otherwise you'll have to send it back and wait to get another one. I love mine, so it would be worth the wait if you had to return it.

The unit will stay on for a short period of time after fully charge, but should go off completely till darkness arrives.make sure the solar panel is not in the shade or a shadow that make it come on thinking it in the dark of night. If this keep doing that, try to reset it again, turn it off and on again and this should do the job. If it keep acting up, it might be defected.

Mine turned on right away. Try to give it 2 hours of charging. Otherwise you've got a defected one.

hi i bougth one too but as soon as i got it i try to charged it, it charged but when i tryied on my phone it didn't work, i pluged it again for 24 hours put it back on my phone didn't work either and when i was just about to trew it away i discovered that the on button has to be press until it start charging the phone, besides when you chaged and unplug it, you have to be sure it's off otherwise you waste your charge and time. im from colombia south america living there, so i hope i was useful and hope it ll work for you, best wishes

It could have gone bad. Try disconecting and the reconecting your climate controller so it can reprogram itself and see if it starts working.

When not in ise, the unit should be switched to the "off" position. It only needs to be plugged in for charging once the battery is dead--keeping it plugged in constantly will deplete the battery life (same as a cell phone).

did you leave it unplugged for a full 24 hours to let it charge by the sun? Mine still works over a year later and this is how I set it up.

When you installed the battery did you allow it to charge for 24 hours before using the APC? (The APC switched off; no load on it.) Go to your instructions for the APC and check for the recommended charge time.

What would work best, and what we do, is turn sensitivity dial to 1 during the day. This enables the solar charging, but the unit isn't likely to spray. At night turn dial to it's operational setting. If the unit is turned off during the day it won't charge. There isn't a timer that would automatically perform this, but we don't find it a problem.

I had the same problem. Ended up returning the product. Sun has to hit sensor directly which is hard to impossible.

Sounds like a question for the seller! It is either defective or the batteries need charging. Try taking it outside in the sun to see if it will work from solar power alone.

That unit may just need to be reset. Contact Enphase directly and get their advice. Thanks ML SOLAR
