my board is turning off by itself

[wwiifan]

when it turned the speed on the normal light sequence ran and the was blinking one green ready to fire. i was dry firing my speed (w/o air also) and after about a minute it shut off by itself. i turned it off then on again and just let the one green light blink waiting for it to turn off again after a minute. but it didnt the gun stayed on. only when i was pulling the trigger did it shut off. the battery was not fully charged so i charged it but the switch was not on so i guess it didnt take the charge. i figured the batt was old and was not taking full charges anymore. so this morning itook the gun apart and looked at a few things and put it back together. now when i switch on the gun it will do its cascade sequence then the batt light will blink once and shut off. can anyone help?

1. How long did u charge the bat? Probably low.
2. check all wires are plugged into the board.

you got a dead batttery. that's it. it's completely normal for the gun to shut itself off when you're firing when the battery is low. get a full charge and you should be good to go. Charge with the gun switched ON, and after about 4-5 hours you should see a single blinking (slowly) red LED. this means that it's fully charged.

If you see that blinking red led after about 15 minutes and it still turns itself off, then that also indicates a duff battery - that is what mine does. In other words - everything looks like it's charging - but it isn't. Time for a new battery I'm afraid.

Mine's on it's way :)

okay i got my gun working. someone was right it just needed to be charged. i thought i plugged in the gun with the switch on and it still wouldnt charge but i tried it again and its fully charged and everything works. thanks to all who replied.
