Charging LED Lights

The charging case and Tabs use LED indicators to show charging status and special modes. Understanding these lights helps you know when your Tabs are ready to use or if a reset is needed.

Charging Case LED Indicators

• No Light — The case is either fully charged or charging cable is not seated properly in the case.
• Solid White — Charging is in progress for the case.

Tab LED Indicators During Charging

• Flashing Yellow on Tabs — The Tabs are charging inside the case and the battery level is under ~90%. 
• No Light — The Tab is either fully charged or seated incorrectly in the case.
• Flashing Red — The Tabs are in factory reset mode. This only happens when the reset buttons on both Tabs are pressed while docked and plugged in. To exit, remove the tabs from the case and press the Tab with the ~ symbol one time.
• Solid Green — Charging is complete. Both Tabs are fully charged and ready to use.

Steps for Charging

1. Place Tabs in the case
   Seat both Tabs firmly until the magnets pull them into place.
2. Connect the charging cable
   Plug the case into a USB wall adapter (5V/1–2A recommended).
3. Check LEDs
   Confirm flashing yellow (charging) or solid green (fully charged).
4. Charge fully before use
   For best performance, allow Tabs to reach 100% before sessions.

Troubleshooting

• No lights while charging — Make sure the cable and adapter are working. Try a different USB cable and wall plug.
• Only one Tab charging — Remove and reseat the Tab. Clean contacts if needed with a dry, soft cloth.
• Flashing red lights unexpectedly — The Tabs may have entered reset mode. Take them out of the case and press the Tab with the ~ symbol on the back one time.

Tips & Best Practices

• Always charge Tabs together so both are ready for your next session.
• Do not use fast chargers above 5V/2A, as they can cause inconsistent charging.
• Store Tabs in the case when not in use to keep them protected and charged.
