[QUOTE="nickt, post: 574083, member: 4923"] It could be the battery like Fred said. I've seen batteries show fully charged, but they are truly dead and can't power on the device. Certainly try one if you have a spare. I'm troubled though that sometimes it is able to power on. So here is another thought.... The switch could be briefly making contact as you turn it on but once it clicks into position, it loses contact. With that in mind, see if you can slowly turn the switch on and then stop if the green light come on. In other words, see if you can find some midway position where the switch does work. In the end, though, its probably best to send it in and catch that warranty. I think the original battery should be covered under warranty as well if that ends up being the problem. [/QUOTE]
