- π Current charge level (0% to 100% longer than 20% to 100%).
- π Power of the charger (weak adapter will increase the time).
- π‘οΈ Ambient temperatures (lower temperature) +10Β°C or higher +35Β°C charging speed drops).
β οΈ Note: If the remote does not charge more than 5 hours or discharges in a few days, this is a sign of a malfunction of the battery.

- π Failure of the power supply (replacement required).
- π§ Firmware failure (reset or flashing is needed).
- β‘ Problems with the socket or network filter.
β οΈ Warning: If the TV stops responding to the remote and the power button, don't try to "charge" it by disconnecting it from the network for a long time.

| Charging conditions | Time to 100% | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Original 5V/2A adapter (wired) | 1.5-hours--2 hours | The best option for fast charging |
| Standard 5V/1A adapter | 2.5β3 hours | Suitable for nighttime exercise |
| USB-television-port (5V/0,5A) | 4-5 hours | The slowest way. |
| Wireless charging (if supported) | 3-4 hours | Convenient but less effective |
| Charging with active use of the remote | 5+ hours | Not recommended β increases battery wear |
