New Kiyo DOA?

Hi, I just unpacked my new Kiyo webcam, plugged it into a USB port and no light came on. Checked the USB port with my speaker, it's fine, tried two other USBs, having unplugged respectively a working extHD and my Wacom, still nothing. Is my KIYO dead on arrival, or is there something I've missed? TIA

the light turns on for me when I open Razer Synapse and click on the cameras icon.

I've had this problem today - unboxed it, and no response plugging it into any device.

For nearly $100 this is a terrible paperweight. Mine is DOA also. Should’ve just stuck with a cheap knockoff. I’m really irritated that I have to RMA a brand new purchase. Mine was made in Thailand so I’m guessing you got one from the same batch. Windows briefly sees it then doesn’t recognize it.

I received my Kiyo in the mail this morning and had the same problem. Plugged it into my computer and it was fine and then the second I touched the brightness ring it refuses to work. Really glad I waited 3 months for them to have these in stock just for it to not work when I finally get it
