3dv1 Dead Glasses?
I was playin a game a bit earlier, and my 3dv1 glasses turned off. No biggie I thought since that happens when it needs a recharge. But when I took them off the glasses LED was rapidy flashing red/green/red/green for about 3 secondds then went black. Since then, when I press the ON button on the glasses, nothing happens. The LED stays dark. Nothing. Now, I've had these glasses since 2009 and I do expect things to wear out. Has anyone else had this type of issue and resolved it? Or... are they fuckin dead for sure? :/ 3dv1 glasses, imo, are more comfortable for me than 3dv2. I'll buy another one if I have to...

To ask the obvious, have you tried putting them on for a good long charge?

Does it work while charging? If not then your out of luck probably.

Yeah, tried playing with them on the cable, charged all night and today. Still don't turn on. Guess I'm out of luck. :`( [i]*taps fades in as I lay the glasses to rest[/i]

Yeah, if you don't get solid orange when plugged into power they are dead-ish. You've always been able to play with them plugged into power, so if you get no action from known good cable, then they died. Just to be clear, does anything happen when you plug them in? When you hit the on-button? If you get action there, then only the battery is dead, which can be jump-started. (I had a pair that died that way before, and another pair that are so old that the green ear rubber fell off, and the nose piece got warped enough I had to super glue it down.)
