[Help Thread] Gocube not charging

[SH03L4C3]

So my gocube just does not charge anymore, which is a problem many people on Kickstarter were having, but I got a later version of the cube. I tried flipping the reset switch for 5 seconds and charging it but that did not work. Anyone else got this problem? And Ideas? Its really disappointing how this is happening to a $100 cube

It comes with a rechargeable Lithium battery, they have a limited lifetime. And if it ever gets discarged below 3.0V, it might be difficult to wake up again.
For drones etc I have been able to revive dead batteries by charging them as NiMH untl sufficient power to be handled as LiPo again, but that is not an option here I guess ?
The dying batteries is one reason I have the iCarry, and not will buy another smartcube without replaceable battery.

I don't have any solutions, but it sounds like a common issue unfortunately. I'm a bit scared the same thing will eventually happen to mine, particularly given I don't use it super regularly. I've had some scramble issues recently, too.

Posting to sub to thread. Good luck OP.

After an experiment, it turns out it is the charger for me, Thankfully.
