Hi, I’ve been using my BlackShark Hyperspeed v3 for about a month now. A day or two ago, I was using them via Bluetooth mode and and they told me that the battery was low. So I plugged them into my charger and it switched to dongle mode. I left them charging for the remainder of my gaming session. But now I can’t power it off. No matter what I do, unplugged or disconnected, when I hold down on the power button like how I usually do, they will not power off. I’ve unplugged the Bluetooth adaptor, I’ve held the button for as long as I could, yet the green power indicator continues to flash green. I even let them sit disconnected and powered on for over 20 hours waiting for the battery to die on its own and yet it still won’t turn off. 
 

I can still technically use them in Bluetooth mode and dongle mode, but it won’t allow me to adjust the volume manually with the volume wheels. Again, they were working perfectly fine the past month, I was able to power them on and off no issues. But not sure what happened that got them stuck in this power on stage. 
 

kind of sucks because these are my first gaming headphones I’ve owned, and for the price I paid I assumed that I wouldn’t be having issues like this a month into my purchase.

   I can confirm the same issue with my headset. I was gifted these headphones for christmas and less than two months later I am having this issue. Headphones died mid game, plugged in to charge and it connected via bluetooth with my computer instead of my phone while charging on that same computer and trying to connect via bluetooth with my phone. Now it will not power down, will not let me adjust the volume. It still lets me change modes and connect via bluetooth, cable and dongle. I too am more than livid at this issue popping up so quickly after their purchase, especially since Razor is reported to be one of the best. I suppose we shall find out, though as I am the first to reply to this comment I do not hold out hope.
