Gamebuino forum

My gamebuino recently became unable to turn on unless it is plugged in and charging and even when it is plugged in all the screen does is flash on and off. Has anyone ran into this problem too and if so how did you fix it? Im thinking its something to do with the battery but i have no way to confirm this. Thanks!

This happens when the battery is too low for the console to properly turn up. Either charge your battery, or if you can't charge it then it's dead and you have to replace it with a 3.7V LiPo battery of at least 200mAh. You can find some for cheap on eBay, or salvage one from an RC helicopter or a phone. Just make sure it's a LiPo with the aforementioned specifications.
