Why does my mirror no longer hold a charge?

I had the same problem. Simplehuman didn't tell me why it stopped working but they replaced it immediately. I had my invoice number, receipts, etc... I also previously registered the product on their website. I chose to exchange the product through Simplehuman which meant I purchased a second mirror on their website. I used the packaging from the new mirror and shipped out the broken mirror with all of my receipts. This exchange took all of 3 days--my credit card was credited the following week.

I had a similar experience. After a period of working just fine, it stopped taking a charge. Light blinks rapidly when plugged in.

I don't have that problem. Sometime I have the light of the mirror on for 30 minutes and everything is ok.

Sorry no. The same thing happened to me. I no longer use it. It just hangs from my rear view mirror now. :(

The original Electric mirror on mine was damaged by a car from on-coming traffic, and got this one to replace it, works perfectly and is pretty identical. Hope this helps in anyway.

there are 18 Led's around the ring of the mirror. They are bright and do not seem to be replacable. I guess if you are electrically competent, you could try to replace them but probably not worth the effort. Hope that helps.

When the camera is connected to a computer, it is recognized on both sides as an external storage device. When the camera is hooked to a (3rd party?) USB charger it is probably doing auto-shut down, etc and no longer recieving a charge-that would be my guess. I think it is possible to turn off the auto shut down/power save feature, it's worth a try

Direct answer, I don't know. Not had that issue, might try draining it completely and then a full recharge. Depending on how long you've had it, might be worth reaching out to the outfit you bought it from for a replacement. Most want to maintain a high rating and good customer services will go a long way.

In rare instances, a mirror may become stuck in an on (light) or off (dark) position. The manufacturer warranty says that a singly mirror (pixel, dot) stuck in the 'on' position may warrant a replacement\fix, though it takes two 'off' pixels to activate the warranty.

mine did that initially. i left it charge for 10 hours then used it till it was dim. After the second charge the light went off when i assumed it was charged. hope that helps.

Maybe you need to clean up the sensor (to have a correct reflection) . also you may want to try take the key out when it is open . now you please help me how can I buy a new battery ?? I will appreciate that too.

I don't know. I ended up throwing this mirror away-- such a waste! because I found the battery and light lasted such a short time. I ended up finding a better one at CVS-- less money and it came with extra batteries. I've been using it for several months and the light is still fine.

Try resetting the camera. You might also try connecting the charger cord to see if a charge jolt would make a difference.

No. Both sides of the mirror manage to work without any electrical charge whatsoever. A really very impressive design.

That happened to me alsoafter a few months so I unassembled it and I put a plastic sheath inside de little sphere (coating it) that connects the mirror to the boom.Hope it works for you.

Fresh battery may have held a charge and been slightly refreshed in the computer. But the charging module in the computer may be faulty and finally failed. Try the usual things. Clean the contacts, make sure they're connecting. Check on line if there is a procedure online to reset the charger in the computer or have the unit checked.

I plug it in. That's the nice part about it. I have been very happy with the mirror.
