We've recently purchased 8 new ADJ Mega Go PAR 64s. After their first use the units would not re-charge. There was no b--- indication suggesting the unit was picking up the main power. Units were sent back and repair by the supplier. On return I checked the units and all were picking up mains supply but after their first use and recharge, all have the same problem. Any ideas? Love the units but the power issue is a huge frustration!

I seem to have the same problem, last week I bought four of them. Two of them seem not to recharge after the first use. On other doesn't blink but states a 100% load when plugged in. The last one state's 100% but doesn't blink. I have the load switch off and the battery switch on. I think the par's are great, but the eratic behaviour concerning charging worries me.
Hi Captain,

I think the problem might be the fuses. I've replaced these on the problematic models and now all seem to be working ok. You will find the fuse compartment just above the main power inlet. There should be two fuses, one live and one spare. Swap the live for the spare and see how you get on.
I am having the exact same problem with the new QA5's. They are completely unreliable when it comes to charging. They don't hold a charge and they show a battery charge then suddenly die. The battery percentage is never correct. For instance I had one light stay on for four hours with the battery meter saying 0%. At my last event the battery showed %73 then died and suddenly said the battery was dead. VERY FRUSTRATED.
