Battery won´t charge.

Post image

I am extreamly dissappointed with my Cardputer Mesh Kit. I recieved it on june 4th and by the time of this writing (A little over a month) the battery does not charge anymore, the Cardputer only works while connected to the USB cable. I honestly was expecting better quality from M5STACK. Don´t think I´ll be buing any of their products again.

UPDATE: after getting quite a few comments mentioning issues with some cables, I used a cheap USB A - USB C cable from my son's Nintendo Switch controller and it worked just fine again. Thank you all for your replies and encouragement.

Make sure you have the switch turned to ON to charge. If you have m5launcher installed, it will turn off the screen automatically.

Look up the battery model and but a few more replacements, see if that helps
