![]() ![]() The orange LED lights up, then goes off, and repeats for a LONG time until finally a white LED shows (even though it's still not charged). I can turn it off and let it charge for several days, but it still hardly ever reaches full charge. Even when plugged in, the battery still discharges (and screen blinks). ![]() But I can do that only as long as the battery lasts.īasically, I can't use the laptop, because the charging circuit is defective (due to the poor USB-C charging port design), and the laptop won't actually run off the A/C. It is only bearable when I unplug the laptop and let it run off the battery. Then it decides it's on A/C again and goes away, and a few seconds later, it's back on battery again with another popup. Not only that, when the battery gets critically low, I have a constant popup telling me that the battery is low and I should plug it in. Even though I turn all of that off, and try to adjust the brightness both on battery and A/C, it never is exactly the same and the brightness changes make the laptop all but unusable. As a result, the laptop constantly changes brightness as it switches back and forth between battery and A/C going into some kind of power save mode. What happens now is that the laptop can't decide if it is plugged in or not, and switches back and forth between battery and A/C power when plugged in. But I began to find it harder and harder to overcome over time. I've been able to overcome multiple instances of the "plugged in, not charging" issue as it occurs by the various solutions posted here. However, I believe there is also a design flaw in the HP charging method through the USB-C port. Given that this occurs on other branded laptops like Dell and Lenovo, it appears that this is a common Windows 10 issue across the board for laptops. My laptop, purchased, for $1,500 started early with the "plugged in, not charging" error reported numerous times here on this HP user forum.
