Well that a short bit of joy! This unit doesnt work... I plugged it in for 5+ hrs and battery light still show no charge... It will not connect to my internet and looking at it there is a bulge on the back under the label! I guess I shouldnt buy used equipment? I was so excited to get this and now I have a paperweight! Oh it doesnt stay on more than 2sec??? I sent an email to Inkbird but I don't think they can help since I bought it used.... $30+ down the drain.... :( Codeword: BUY NEW!

Also, this one doesn't work with the 5G network. Only 2.4G. If you have the option to switch your phone to 2.4G. Then try that. And. As suggested. Try a different charger. I usually just plug mine into my laptop.
 
Mine won't charge on the new fast chargers. I thought I had killed it because I left it all night. Dug out a old usb to c charger and it charged back up.
Well .. It was change the usb cord for the win! Works like a charm! But, did take me 4hrs to get it paired with phone! (wow!) I'm going to post a giant thank you to the group, but Thanks all that helped me on this!

congrats. that 2.4ghz bullshit is a pain. I finally figured out a way to get my AT&t to do 2.4 AND 5. I'm an IP troglodyte. I am challenged to add a smart bulb to home nework, and don't even want to talk about my blink security system. And I sell broadcast IP video cameras for a. living.
