NEW unit, few times now I get error message that the Pro500 needs to cycle power. Unplug it from power socket and restart. Annoying. Is this a defect

I have had my new Bel Pro500 for about 5 months now and that has never happened. I have yet so far never had to unplug it and restart. And I keep mine on all the time, meaning when I start my car, its starts up and starts looking for any speed traps, but never have seen any error messages for that matter, let along needs to cycle power so hope this helps but if it were me, time to call Bel Pro.. and ask.. hope this helps... also mine is working fantastic..

Did this start occuring after doing a update? It could be a software issue.

Ive had my Bel Pro 500 for some time now and have never had a problem as you have described, time to return the unit.

ive been using my device for a year daily and never had that problem. It has crashed on me once that I can remember.... As a safety precaution, I always turn off the device (by using its power button) before shutting down my car or unplugging power cable. Try to update your firmware to the current version or perhaps roll back firmware if you recently just updated. If not then RMA your device.

Craig, i'd be happy help you. i have 3 units and they as of today have no problems. we fix most problems ourselves. What's the issue?

For me, I ain't have any power on/off issues on mine.You need to check if it has been misused unknowingly.Mine still remain ok.I have two of it, they are very ok

I had similar problem when i first used it. I called them and they sent me a new power circuit board. it took an hour to install the new one. that unit is NOT a good at all. it is not worth the money.

I have two of the PW100's and have not had the problem. It is really a simple device. Your battery may not be able to hold a charge or its not able to take a charge. There are two micro-switches and one of these could be bad. You need to make sure the lid is down and latched. The owners manual has a exploded picture of the device. I would contact Suncast, they are very helpful.

No, i never try. I always have a load on it, and if I turn things off it goes to a standby or power save mode automatically.My inverter have been running for more then 2 years now. With no problems so for.

I'm having the exact problem with the unit I just bought from Amazon. I'm wondering if it's a bunch of faulty units :-/

I just bought it yesterday and this happened after the first time I used it. I can't turn it off unless I plug it in. I was just checking Amazon to see if this was a typical issue. I'll call Wahl today to see if I can get a replacement since I don't know about refunds after using it.

This worked for me. A crazy problem! The unit was fully charged and waiting on my bike for a big ride today. But when I got ready this morning, I couldn't revive the 305. As I've read here, it's not a battery discharge issue . . . it's a quirk. Thanks for the hint about Reset and Mode together.

That has never happened to me, so I can't answer specifically. However, if I unplug it, it must be reset again, so I assume the same would be true of a power failure.

Yes, mine has been running for a year or two now with several power outages; restarts automatically.

You would need to reset....there is a power switch to too but timed off for safety

Did you put 2gb of memory in it?I ordered 2gb of crucial memory aimed for the 1005PE and have had this problem ever since.I thought that updating the BIOS fixed the problem - because after the BIOS update the problem seemed to end.But I later concluded that the restart and shut down problems only happen on battery power. When plugged in no problem.Try shutting down your 1005PE on battery power. Then try it pluggen in. Let me know if you have the same problem as I have.

It is normal, it's just telling you its receiving power. Mine does it too and nothing has gone wrong.

I am in agreement with Thomas. I have been fortunate I guess, mine comes on every time. I would verify your power connection and cable to ensure it is not faulty. The power input is just a mini-usb which can be an easy and cheap replacement.

i have had about 8 1kw or larger ups and the only time they "buzz" is when they are charging a depleted battery. i would unplug it and leave the load connected and see how long the battery last. if it dies in short period of time then probably there is a problem and the unit is charging all the time. it should go into charging mode very seldom because the load is normally not off the batteries and on the power line. the battery should stay charged and not need charging.
