There are a few reasons why you may be receiving a charging error:
- Liquid detected: Liquid is interfering with the charging interface between the nose bridge of your glasses and the charging case. Wipe the charging contacts clean on both devices and try again.
- High temperature: The charging case has reached a temperature that is too high to charge your glasses. Move your case into a cooler location.
- Incompatible charger: Case cannot charge due to the charging cord or power adapter being used. Try using a different cable or power adapter based on the recommendations in the Charging your case section of this article.
Your glasses may not be powering on due to not being able to charge when docked. Dried sweat, dirt, and liquid can all cause interference between the nose bridge of your glasses and the charging case. Thoroughly clean both devices, then try to charge again.

While the majority of USB-C cables should work with the charging case, there are some specific chargers that might not be compatible with the charging case. If you are using one of these incompatible chargers, you might see:
- A persistent pulsing orange or green pattern on charging case LED.
- Missing charging icon in the Meta AI mobile app.
If you are running into issues with charging your charging case, try connecting a different USB-C cable to your case. If the case is still not charging, try using a different power adapter. Replacement charging cases, USB-C charging cables and power adapters are available for purchase in the Meta Store.
