Troubleshooting

LED lights do not turn on.

Ensure the LED modules are fully charged by connecting them to a USB port. Check that the LED modules are securely attached to the beanie. Try a different USB cable or power source.

Lights are dim or flicker.

The battery may be low and require recharging. Ensure the LED module is clean and free from debris. If the issue persists after charging, the LED module may be faulty.

Beanie does not fit properly.

This is a one-size-fits-all adult beanie designed for standard head sizes. Adjusting the fit may be limited due to its construction.

Water damage to LED module.

If the LED module has been exposed to water, immediately detach it from the beanie. Do not attempt to charge or use it. Allow it to air dry completely for several days in a well-ventilated area. Contact customer support if the issue persists.

Cons

  • Battery life may be limited to 2-4 hours, requiring frequent recharging for extended use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Locate the LED modules on the front and back of the beanie.
  2. Gently twist and pull to detach the LED modules from the beanie fabric.
  3. Connect the USB port of each LED module to a compatible USB power source (e.g., computer, USB wall adapter, power bank).
  4. Allow the lights to fully charge. The indicator light will change when charging is complete.
  5. Reattach the charged LED modules to the beanie by aligning them and gently pressing until they click into place.

Compatibility:

The USB rechargeable LED modules are compatible with standard USB-A ports for charging. The beanie itself is a one-size-fits-all adult design made from acrylic.

Care:

  • LED Modules: These are electronic components and should not be machine washed or submerged in water. Wipe clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth only. Ensure they are completely dry before reattaching.
  • Beanie: The beanie itself can be hand washed in cool water with mild detergent. Gently squeeze out excess water and lay flat to dry. Avoid direct heat or tumble drying.
  • Storage: Store the beanie and LED modules in a cool, dry place, detached from each other if possible, to prevent moisture buildup and potential damage.
