I have a problem with my Motion it is on charge but the red light stays on, goes off every 22 seconds for a couple of seconds and comes back on. Been charging for 2 and half hours. When off the charger it does the same. And suggestions ?

How do you turn it off when its in save mode?

Should be same pressing the button for several seconds, then it should go red for about 20 secs and then turn off , assuming latest firmware

I've just had the same. Red light on full time after a charge, wouldn't turn off. I guess it was in 'safe' mode? Would not turn off..
Reloaded firmware (twice), ran it flat and restarted, and same, same.
Kept doing this and finally it's behaving normally again.
Except that now it flashes charge level every minute rather than on demand and I can't stop that.
Electronics!.......never gonna catch on!

'Except that now it flashes charge level every minute' I think this normal with current firmware. mine has been doing that for ages and I like it

Drama solved.
Some how I must have put it into safe mode. Once in safe mode you can't get it out of safe mode until you update the firmware. BUT it won't update with your phone or tablet you must use your computer when in safe mode.
Thank you Dezza for your help and encouragement.
