My uniden baby monitor won't stay charged..Has anyone else had this problem? If so can someone tell me the problem?

How long will it stay on unplugged before quitting? We can usually keep it unplugged all day IF: we only have it on 2 or 3 times for an hour each AND if we charge it all night. If yours is not keeping a charge at all it may be defective. Hope that helps.

Sorry to break the bad news but, it's time to either get a new unit or keep it plugged into the wall from now on. This unit has some type of proprietary battery that is not replaceable. I had the same problem and had to just get a new unit. Upgraded to the Uniden UBR243 model.

Depending how long you have had it the battery may need replacement. Keep in mind rechargeable batteries have a limited number of charges depending on the model. Some are 50 some 100 charges. Also unless you have a special trickle charger you may decrease battery life if you keep a rechargeable battery on charge for more than 2-3 days at a time. This holds true for most rechargeable batteries.

I had an issue with my Smart Baby monitor (that was purchased on Amazon) and I contacted Withthings customer service, they were more than helpful! They got me a whole new product within just a couple weeks. I would recommend contacting them directly :-) info on Withings website.

Thank you all for your comments and tips. Ive just exchanged the monitor for another unit and the replacement unit does not have the same first start/powering on flickering. Btw, i tested the original unit on a ps4, 2 diferent desktops, and a laptop each with their own cable but the result were the same. In the manual it stated that flickering is "normal" due to the nature of the LED backlit, and call support only when the monitor no longer power on due to the flickering. (...?)

You may have a faulty device. I have had mine for about 7 months and still works great. I've never had issues with it not charging, and always lasts quite a while. Reach out to Amazon or the seller for a replacement. Best of luck!

Only 90 day return, mine has been fine for ever. I would look at the hook-up cable lines and be sure it didn't loose power. Or you can take the monitor out and have a installation place check to see if it is the monitor? I stand behind the product.

Did you ever figure it out? My 2 children have never charged theirs, and I'm afraid we threw away the cables as well--I don't remember there being cables. Did you find out how to replace it? Sonya

Did everyone try charging the unit while it is powered off?It seems to make a different to me. I bought three(3) and so far all battery seemed to be decently averaged out around 2.5 hours or so (mainly net surfing and video conferencing) after few months of usage. Power on while charging seems like charges don't hold too well even it shows 100% charged.Try it out...it may make some different.

I would check the back of the monitor too, making sure that nothing got changed there. I've had mine for over 2 1/2 years and it still works perfectly! I love it!!! If you check the back and everything is as it should be, definately contact the manufacturer and get it replaced!

OK, Lisa, the unit I purchased has worked perfectly and I haven't had any issues. I set it up for charging and it charges fine . I can't honestly say I have any complaints. Not to seem unimaginative but if beleive the unit is defective then I'd contact Amazon customer service. There are also written instructions with the unit. I hope this has been helpful.

I keep the out door unit plug in all the time, the 2 monitors I charge when needed when red light go off I just unplug, leaving it plug in do not seem to have any problems.

My light (green) stay's on when charging. It goes off when complete. Mine only blinks when the battery is low. It sounds as if your battery might be faulty.I never use tech support on anything. They usually know less about their products than we do!

I had trouble with mine not charging as well. Contact the seller and exchange it.

Agree with other 2, make sure it charged because that's how you turn it on. I've had no trouble with mine, works beautifully.

Cannot help you, if still under return timeframe, return it. I have two units, one used for three years, one still new in box, even un-opened--was going to sell it so did not want to open the box, but decided to keep it since now discontinued. Your post reminds me--I should take it out of the box and check it. Question--are you sure it is the monitor and not your video card in the computer, or interference from some other device? Check online for like symptoms. Love this monitor. If you can find a fix, and otherwise in good condition, worth fixing yourself.

Wow, that's soooo frustrating. I'm sorry I can't help. Our has worked fine. A couple of times in the beginning it did stop and we unplugged, plugged it back in. Fortunately it was an easy fix for us. I hope you can get it resolved soon.

Ivan had a legitimate question Cliff with a sarcastic answer from you. My monitor has the same problem and is worthless at this point. If we figure it out I will fairly rate this product. Our security system is a high test system and not from the big box stores.
