    The battery light is blue but is followed by red blinks and returns to blue. What does this mean? I can't find any information.

    Most likely means your battery is dead or reporting that it is. Does the battery work? How long is battery life? What do the 5 lights on the bottom of the battery do when the button is pressed?
