I am super pleased to have these videos to look at! Tyty!
Got mine apart now after the same LED behavior shown in video part 1.
Weirdest thing for me is everything tested fine, put the board and plugs back in, unit started working normally again??? Guess the board needed a full power cycle? ...But any problem that goes away by itself can come back by itself...
As nice as that is, hard to see myself buying any of these again. I really liked it when it worked but the construction makes it disposable. What is an owner suppose to do when the LiPo battery reaches End of Life? Can't put in a fresh working one without nearly destroying it. There is another model that uses four D-cell batteries but still, same argument works regarding pump failure or sensor failure.
As a tip: you can take the motherboard out, to make easier.
Much easier to submit a warranty claim through AMEX. Mine just flashes red when I try to use it. I’m stuck at trying to spit the glued casing.
You forgot to do a manual test by tap 3 times the power button to test the pump
Hello, great video from you. I have a problem with the soap dispenser. If the soap dispenser was fully charged after 2 days, the LED flashes red, which means that the battery is empty. Or am I wrong?
I think the battery might be dead if it doesn't charge after 2 days. But check the cables etc.
Is it safe to run your unit with some diluted alcohol once in a while to make sure soap dies not dry up inside?
I am not sure that alcohol dilutes soap. Also, alcohol would be much less dense than liquid soap, so I am not sure if it would come through the pump. Last and not least, the way the pump works relays on some friction being created, perhaps not ideal to have flammable liquids
Is the motor and pumping unit the same on the simplehuman foam dispenser?
Sorry not sure
