Thanks for sharing your experience

Do you still have the unit. I just actually fixed one that wasn’t charging. Hit me up. Dan

So what was point of the video

Thank you for your video. What I did to get mine to start charging just now was to plug it in like normal but slowly and carefully pull out the cable just barely. I got it to show 2 bars instead of the 1 flashing. So just plug it in fully then slowly and carefully unplug it but not fully. Hope this helps

I have 2 halos. 1 has a charging port on the back. One has NO charging port anywhere. Anyone else?

Open it up disconnect the battery cut the charger cord and wire it straight into the battery 😂😊😢 be careful not to overwhelm the battery magnetized it if you don't want to worry about over charging it

I have one myself. The only reason I still have it as a fixture on my table, is bcs it is a really beautiful rose gold color. I was hoping if I kept it, I would come across a video one day that shows how or where it can be fixed. After watching this video, I guess it's time to thrash it. What a waste of money

You want a little trick that might work You're trying to charge as a DC port You know the jumper pack starter pins they go directly to the battery The charger you plug into the wall I wonder how many volts it is I bet it's 12 volts if you get the jumper that that comes with it You charge through the ports on the bet you it'll charge up through the ports

I have the same problem. I was wondering, do you know of a better product that I could purchase, because as a single lady, I like the idea of jumping my car battery off, and not relying on a stranger.

PEOPLE!!!! I came here hoping for a solution to this problem but didn’t see one in the video or comments. First of all I have several of the HALO AC/DC BOLT 58830. It looks very similar to the one in the video, just not wireless. I had a similar issue, Worked fine and then all of a sudden had just 1 flashing light and wouldn’t charge past that. I tried several things and finally, found something that may help. . . What I did was I held down the on/off, the 3 prong plug , and battery jumper buttons, at the same time. I did not push the flash light button, and I did not push them in any order. Tried to push them at the same time and held down for maybe 10-15 seconds. After a few seconds, the on/off button flickered and the lights came on. I decided to try and charge again. It started with the same 1 light flashing but this time went on to the 2nd then 3rd and finally the 4th and now, all 4 lights are solid and fully charged!!!! Try it and see!! Hope this helps. It has worked for mine.

Man this is discouraging, ours has been fantastic for like a year, got us through power outages etc Now all of a sudden 😢 It’s shows 2 bars but will not except a charge boo Better off buying the real ones they sell

I’ve used mine lightly over the years since purchase. It’s one of the first I saw on QVC. I have the air compressor/ battery jump version also which I’ve used when my car tires indicate low many times. The issue is the original one now the on/off button and 3 green bars stay lit & wont turn off. The flashlight won’t turn on at all. I’ve been using it daily to power a small handheld nebulizer for my asthmatic cat. Sad to lose this formerly handy tool. Will be seeking a better replacement.

We bought one about 2 years ago. Used it less than 10 times. Loaned it to someone and it came home dead. It won't charge at all. $200 for what seemed to be an awesome product. Apparently NOT. I am really disappointed.

I have more than one. I had a different model (Jump start, air compressor, USB with separate AC converter and digital display) I plugged it into the charger and it would flash all the the error icons at once then it would switch to the charging display, then back to the error icons and back to the charging display on and on, and it wasn't charging. I went and got a different charging adapter from one of my other models and it started charging properly.

Mine won’t charge either… I just bought a new cord.. that didn’t work either🤬

I’ve had mine x4 over five years and haven’t had any issues. I have one for each car and mine gets used more than the rest!

I’ve had two new units, one worked one time and the other never worked. Garbage!

hoped to find something good, here, a way to open and fix a loose connection. Have one never used that I have to hit to turn on. Got for my wife, has been sitting in her car for a year. Still at 95% charge, but will not turn on unless I hit. So, if I were to use the compressor it would disconnect whatever was not connected internally. Great product!

We had two, the first lasted 3 years the 2nd one only a year and it wont take a charge

I bought one for me and my daughter and mines doesn’t wanna charge anymore not worth it. If it can’t hold a charge work maybe three times for me and that was it.

Tk u for heads up yes we have a unit doing the same thing! Have gone through all the steps you were advised and like yours the unit is still blinking. I purchased mine from QVC I will contact the bolt company then contact QVC will update as I get any new info Tk u for this video! XO

“Acrossed” is not a word.

I just attempted to use my Halo Bolt on a friend's car tires and it wouldn't work although it indicated a 91% charge. These units must be really garbage and I will take it up with QVC since I purchased it due to their hyping the product. Also, my warranty has expired.

I have the jump starter/power bank and it has worked like a champ. I liked it so much I bought the power station because the battery has a massive amount of power. I have only used it a few times and out of the blue it won't take a charge. I have contacted Halo and can't get a response. I have tried different outlets, different cables, different charging blocks, etc. and am using the original charging block that came with it. I'm going to discharge it cause at this point I just have a 200 dollar paper weight.

I understand this is a bit old but mine had a broken wire in the PS charger cord. It's pretty stiff wire and appeared to be fine. My voltmeter showed the PS had zero volts at the output. I found the busted wire was close to the "wallwart." Bought a new PS and it started charging like nothing had been wrong. It's a great little pack. I've had mine for about 10 years.

So, I have a older, believe the original one. So now, my grandma bought me a halo ultimate. Here the last 2 months I’ve actually had to start using it to air up my mower tire (slow leak in small front tire). Giving you that piece of info to let you know this thing has not at really even been used. Anyways we got 18% the other day, plugged in before bed. Next day. Still at 18%. Lol. Call them. They want me to figure where it was bought from. Think I’m just going to say fk that. Take this thing apart carefully and see if I can personally find and fix the problem.

So my Halo has been dead for 3 years and when i finally plugged it up to charge it only one flashing bar would appear but it would not charge. I left it on for over 12 hours to no avail. I am going to assum once it gets to this point it is irreversible.

Mine is doing the same thing. I've had it less than a year. I got it as a gift.

That explanation took forever.

Mine to, 1 year old, very disappointing

Try turning off the USB outputs before trying to charge the unit

Keeping it topped off can kill the HB. It is meant to be charged, then taken off charge waiting to be used ad in the glove box. Will stay charged for at least 2 yrs. Personal experience .

Too much talking. What was the problem?

Too much talk about other people reviews. Don’t watch this.

Garbage. I did get one successful jump out of it. First issue was jumper cables are cheap and broke internally and had to order replacement. 2nd issue, and nail in the coffin, was unit stopped accepting charge. Less reliable than whatever it is supposed to be supporting totally defeats the purpose of a backup or emergency contingency item.

My brother had one about a year before it broke, and i've had mine for maybe 4 months and it won't charge anymore

I have one that ive had for over 5 years running great so i got a second one… that one just took a poo after laybe a few months

Anybody else have an issue where the first light will blink when plugged in but the charge never goes up? It appears like it's going to charge but never does. I have two bolts, and the other charges fine with same adapter.

Thanks for the info…I’m having the same problem…I only 😊have 2 bars …I’ve had this for a long time and it was always functional 😮

Mine just won’t charge at all after a couple months, was kept inside its whole life. Wanted a receipt for a Christmas gift I got so it wouldn’t be covered under warranty.

I've had mind about a year. It won't charge, which is the reason I sought out this video. I have 1 blinking bar and I tried allowing it to go completely dead, re-upping before it died, and tried charging in an isobar and outlet to no avail. I'm hoping and praying that it's being finicky because I really love the device. So much so that I've been recommending it to everyone. My son says it would not jump his car, but I never really used it for that reason anyway.

Just got one. My outlet plug in doesn't work. Can't run anything off of that outlet. Dissapointing.

Mine doesn't charge but works. I bought a new ac charger and it's fine

Mine took a fall from the seat to the carpeted floorboard of my jeep... and won't turn on. Plugged it in when I got to the power station where the chargers are and it does this 4 lights blinking. I use mine daily to push a cpap. 😕😔 and it's been only 4-5 months. I have 2 others and now I'm concerned. They're that fragile? 90 days 🤦🏻‍♀️

update, I tried a different charging cable and it is not charging! The lights are on and 1 green light is blinking. wow maybe it just needed a new charger?

Mine won't even charge or blink at all now. Have you tra car charger? I feel like that may work, but I can't find mine.

Friends got me one as a Christmas gift about 4 years ago. Charged it up and it stayed in the trunk of my car for about a year through 100°F heat and mild Winter. An elderly couple at the grocery store needed a boost. My first opportunity to see what this thing would do. Still had 4 bars of charge from initial charges. Success! The gentleman wanted to know the brand and model as he wanted one. Used it maybe 3 more times since then. A few days ago, my battery on my Mazda was weak. Hooked the Bolt to the battery without the usual signs of connection such as a spark or change in interior lights on car or Halo itself. I thought maybe the clamps were bad but I find out that I have no power on the clamp contacts. Rest of unit seems fine. Then I see here it only has a 90 day warranty and Halo does not seem eager to go the extra mile for you. Will be replacing with something else. Too bad. This "seemed" like a nice little unit. 🙁

I've had mine for about 4 years now!!! The only problem I'm is the 3 prong outlet stopped working!!!
