Has anybody had any issues with power to this? Certain power sockets and sometimes if i put my hand close to screen it shuts off? Is it defective?

My scale has worked flawlessly. Make sure there is no stress (e.g., pulling to one side) on the power plug that goes into the scale. Also make sure that the plug is fully seated.

I purchased one and had to return it. The power supply was defective out of the box and it wouldn't always turn on using batteries.When it did turn on it would not zero. My advice is to send it back.

I can say this it will shut off after a few minutes or so.Any otherissue's I would call the company thy worked good with me!

Sounds like something is wrong. Power cord or the connection socket on the device. I have none of these issues. Yes the gen pro 250 is very nice but alot more expensive. I do not reload enough for that unit. I may reload 1k rounds a yr. May buy 1 much later. I Recvd this unit as a gift and really like it.

I have had no such problems with my scale and I cannot even guess at what could be the problem however, send it back Lyman will replace it.

No issues that I know of. Sounds like static electricity is effecting the unit? I'd say its defective. Good luck!!

I can't comment on the power supply. I didn't have the unit on long enough to experience any power issues. I was so disappointed in its performance as a scale that I returned it and went with the GemPro 250.

I'v had mine about a year without any issues like you described. I have found I have to turn it on and let it warm up for about 15 to 20 minutes before it will give accurate readings.

The fact that it restarts and functions makes me think more of a memory problem then a power supply issue. Is the problem only while playing a movie or anything else, have you tried to open task manager and monitor your memory and CPU usage for when this happens? Good luck and hope it works out for you

I personally haven't had this issue, but I've read reports of screen issues like that. You might need to send it in for replacement. I hear customer service is easy to work with.

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

Check the connection. It might not be seated all the way. If thats not the issue it may be a defective screen.

Just used mine for the first time and was about to ask the same question. I find it awkward to keep pressure on the so-called One-Touch Power Button while operating. May be a safety feature but I wouldn't have purchased if I knew that was how it operated. Plan to try it a few more times to see if I get used to it. If not, I will return.

No problem with mine. I only use it with a power supply, and it works perfectly.

I am having this problem too. I tried the power reset and tried playing with the screen to reestablish the connection, but neither worked. Are there any other suggestions out there?

I do not have a problem with the power button. It is a little firm, but I only use one hand to turn my phone off.

You must have a bad one. So far I have used mine for 4 hours not connected to power and no issues.

yes, the screen will go off with a quick press of the power button and if the button is held longer, the entire system will power down. had it for over 18 months and it is still going strong!

I had the same problem with one I bought around Christmas time. For that one I returned it. However, now my screen quit and I can't get tech help. At all. Nothing. If I had to do it over I'd return it and run.

No, I haven't had any issues with the power button. I'd suggest taking the soft case off and try putting it back on to make sure the fit is secure.

It is very sensitive to large dust particles and cold air. It also crackles when any moisture gets in, such as air freshener or Lysol Spray. If it does it often, turn it off and brush off the screen and the power cell and it should stop. :)

I have never had this situation. I installed the one I got, and it worked fine. There could be an issue with the touch screen control board or the motherboard. Make sure the unit is fully charged.

Russell,Mine was DOA - no power to the dock from the adaptor. I returned it and didn't buy another. The answer to your question, however, is based on what you tell Windows to do when the laptop lid is closed. In the power options of the control panel tell it to do nothing, never sleep and never hibernate and the PC will function with the lid closed. With the lid open, you are supposed to be able to see three screens, but I could not test that.Good luck.Mike
