Voice Remote Pro v.2.- Charging
Received my new remote yesterday. It has been changing for over 20 hrs. White light blinking still. Occasionally, the light goes out but I can watch it a while and it starts blinking white again. All this time and still no green light.
Not a great start. Haven't even paired or used it yet. What is happening? Is it defective right out of the box or is this normal?

We would like to take a moment to clarify the meanings behind the Roku light indicators:
- A pulsing white light indicates that the device is currently charging while plugged in.
- A solid white light signifies that the device is fully charged when it is connected to power.
- A blinking red light gently reminds the user that the device is low on power and should be charged soon.
- A blinking white light signifies that the device is in pairing mode.
Please note that as the battery approaches 100%, the charging rate may slow down. This can result in the light continuing to pulse even when the device is fully charged. If the settings show 100% or indicate a full charge, everything is functioning properly.
Hope this clarifies things! If you have any other concerns or inquiries, please let us know.
Thanks,
Jharra
