Doorbell not charging, just Flashing full blue

I saw another related thread but it did not solve my issue. I have a Ring doorbell generation 2. I have set it up to operate off battery and charge it every so often. Upon putting it on the charger from 13% battery, the entire blue light rapidly flashes. I re-seated the cable, tried various mini-usb cables including the included original orange cable, and various charging bases. All gave the same result. I left the device on the charger with the rapidly flashing blue light for approximately 6 hours. Upon removing it from the charger, i pressed the ring button and also allowed it to capture motion. The device still reports battery life at 13%

    I’ve just had the same issue when I used a Samsung USB plug. I switched to my iPhone plug and now it’s charging properly.

      I found same issue, I found that if you let the unit get to room temperature then put it on charge it starts charging suggesting that the battery won't accept a charge when it is cold.

      I vote for the same issue of letting get to room temperature. I was experiencing the same. Switched cables, USB outlets and chargers, and nothing. After around 10 minutes of having in my hand moving around, I tried again and nothing, then disconnected and immediately connected and, Bingo!
