Hi All,

Today my Cooling Pad has started flashing red. No idea why, Hoping for some guidance?

Steps Performed

  • Tried Firmware Update - Firmware update detected the pad, but already on the Latest
  • Its detected by Synapse 4, but showing as powered off
  • I have disconnected from laptop and power with no luck
  • I have uninstalled all razer apps, rebooted and then re-installed, again Synapse detects the cooling pad but marked as powered off. Also detected USB devices attached to the cooling pad
  • I have moved usb ports on the laptop for the pad - Didn’t help
  • I have removed usb devices from the Cooling Pad Hub - Didn’t Help

I have ran out of idea’s

Any guidance would be appreciated

Same thing happened to me. Any solution?

This has also happened to me. I have also tried every troubleshooting step you listed. I’m not sure what else to do.

I think I found the issue. For some reason, when the fan dips below 600RPM, the cooling pad freaks out. If I run the fan unplugged from the laptop at speeds 2 and 3, everything works. If I run the fan at setting 1, unplugged, I get frequent periods of the flashing red light. When I plug it back into the laptop and run it at a fixed 500RPM, constant disconnects. When I bump the fan up to 600RPM and higher, it runs perfectly. Why allow the fan to go to 500RPM in Synapse if the cooler is just going to freak out? I was so close to returning it.
