try taking the batteries out for a minute. replace the batteries set the scale on a hard surface, put your foot on it and press down 00 should appear. take your foot off and it should be ready to go.

Take a look at the directions again. They're pretty specific on how to use it for the first time. After you follow the initial set up, you will have no problems!

Hi Nick I'm Thomas I had no problems with the light thou I only played with it for a short while(It's a gift for someone) the easy check the bube if you know for certain that the batteries are good. also stretch the springs a bit for good measure Those are my thoughts about your device good luck.

Yes, I did change the battery in mine because it wasn't working. I have two lights and one quit working. I bought replacement batteries and changed them with no problem, but the one still didn't work. Unless you know it it the battery for sure, I would not waist your money on new batteries if it just doesn't work.

Try the light on a fully 'charged' battery. There is a 'shut off' timer that will shut it off but it should be longer than a minute or two. Perhaps the timer is defective.

I have one and the light meter worked for about a month after i got it. The light mustve died or something im not sure but i know its not the batteries.

Actually, I got mine at our local hardware and it was just the flashlight, no box or even instructions. Which brings me to my question, anybody know how to make it strobe? I've played with everything so far and no luck.

You need to hold the button in the back, cycle through the different configurations. I forget the order - but something like - hold it for 2 - 3 seconds, the light stays on, hold it again for 2-3 seconds, the light works with the wireless device. Hold it again for 2-3 seconds, the light cycles off.

Hate to state the obvious but make sure the batteries are all charged and facing the correct position. Mine did this once. I took out all the batteries and put in fresh and it has worked since. When you depress the "on" button hold it for about 2 seconds before releasing.

You probably have it set for zero after changing your battery. You need to fool around with it a bit and will probably discover it was off. Of course unless it's actually defective but both mine have worked without a problem but I too had to replace a battery and it turns off. Hope this helps.

Just take one of the batteries out and turn it around. It cannot light this way. Been doing it for years, ok, decades.

Turn the bezel around the bulb. This may take a try or two until you get the feel for it. If that doesn't work, there's a battery or bulb problem. I love the flashlight!

I don't think so, I am having the same problem with my light. I know it won't be long I will have to change the battery because of it. I just hope its not dead when I get ready to use it.

All I can suggest is to change the batteries. That happens when they get low. It is suspicious that yours never worked.

Im sorry... No suggestions... That sadly is exactly what happened with me. I just threw it away after about a week of it not turning on showing any motion with the lights. Maybe flip the black switch on the bottom and it may work.

Sorry but you have to test The circuit maybe The battery is dead try with another battery. Mine is weak it only light 3 hours.

Not to start off sounding like a smart a** but make sure it's plugged in to a working outlet. Second push the button on top once. If you can't tell if it's working turn the lights off. You should see a faint bluish glow in the dark.

I have 4 lights total and 2 have always worked perfectly, 1 has never worked and the 4th only ever "glowed" until last night, when I pulled it apart again, flipped switches and reinstalled batteries. Magically it seems perfect now. So, I'd suggest playing with it a bit.
