What color is the power light supposed to turn? I think I got a faulty unit, nothing works when I plug it in. Tried 3 diff cables and 4 diff devices.

Power light is red when it's turned on. Output lights are green. Be sure your input device is plugged into the input and you are using hdmi cables designed to carry the signal the distance you are traveling. That includes the input cable must be capable of carrying the signal the distance to your splitter.

standard hdmi cables are not designed to carry a signal very far. I used monoprice hdmi cables with redmere technology and they work perfectly. Up to 60 feet without a signal booster. And they are dirt cheap when compare them to top quality hdmi cables from just a few years ago. I would try using a short input cable and short output cable ( under 9' ) if it works that way, replace your cables. If it doesn't work then maybe you have a bad splitter.

Ours was also faulty and we returned it. We didn't bother to order another.

Certainly sounds like you wired it correctly. Just remember that LEDs are polarity sensitive, so make sure your positive is on the red wire. If that is confirmed, then I have nothing more to suggest.

Sounds vaguely familiar. If you press the button, does the light turn on at all? Have you tried removing the batteries, waiting a few moments, then reinstalling the batteries? If it's the problem I think it is, I think it's the light's circuitry going into a protection mode. When you charge the light, do you plug the charger cable into power source, then plug the mini-USB plug into the light? Or do you connect the light to the cable first, then connect the cable to a power source? If the former, then I suggest switching to the latter to avoid the problem. I suspect it's an issue of the powered cable touching part of the light it shouldn't if you're not inserting it "cleanly" into the charging port, tripping a protection mode.

I believe it's a defective LED driver or at least one of the components in that power circuit. I had similar problem with one of the 18 units after 2 months of used. I would recommend contacting the seller to see if they can send you a replacement. I plan to do the same this week. It should not happen.

Did you push the reset button on the power plug? I think that has to be done. My LED lights came on when the unit started. However, since it is in my bedroom, I had to turn it off for sleep purposes. The LED lights are not on if the power is not on, I think.

This might be a repeat answer. If you have pluged the unit into another outlet and the light still flashes I think you should return it.

I have the same problem. The light in front is on and the power button is pushed one way and it still dose not work. I have the same problem and mine has been on charge for several day's and it still does not work, and the button is in the right place.

Maybe try the switch? Mine is wonky and lopsided. Looks like it is on one input when it is on the other? It's usb powered so make sure it's plugged in and lights up.

My light just had brown (brown/red) and blue. I used brown/red for positive (red) and blue for negative (closest to black of options provided). It works. I didn't have yellow w/green stripe. Green is usually a ground, but don't know why there would be one on a 12v DC device.

It should only be blue when it's plugged in with no battery. It should turn red/purple when it's charging and then red/blue when it's charged. I use more almost every day and mine works fine. Maybe contract anker about a replacement?

Sorry to hear the LED light is blue on one of the chargers. We are afraid it is defective. Others who have purchased this item and are experiencing the same problem are also welcome to contact us.

Mine does that the LED power meter, though it doesn't appear to light up at all. As the other person responded, is better to have the power meter icon in your system tray in lower right corner, easier to read, more informative, etc.

Not sure, mine never does that. If you just bought it I would swap for a new one. Or make sure your connection to the outlet is not loose maybe? Hope you figure it out!

When it's charging it's red, when it's charged its blue. Either you plugged it in wrong or it's defective.

If the power cable is ok, a red light should be on, close to the power button. When you press the power button, this light turns to blue. If the "AUDIO IN" or USB cables are working properly, it should work normally. Make sure you turn the volume up.

Unfortunately, I think your unit, like mine is DOA. This unit charged all lights and then I took it off the charge and it did nothing. DEAD!

I think it is greenish reddish kind of light. According to the user manual and I verified on my unit, it is supposed to be orange --indicating it is charging. When completely charged it will turn red. I guess they tried to create orange with combining the two led lights...Hope that helps. Best bet is to let it charge completely, and it should turn red. Make sure your unit is in OFF position before you start charging. Hope it helps.
