FAQ

My UV+ device is experiencing black screens, disconnects, low res, washed out color or overall poor picture quality.

In most instances, this issue is isolated to Laptops.  Many laptops run USB power below USB spec in order to save on battery life. It isn’t a issue  as most things do not use USBs full capacity of power, or even close to it.  If you are on a laptop, retest on a  POWERED USB hub (has a AC power adapter, not getting it from the USB) and test running the UV+ off of that if you ahve one available.  In most cases this is the fix.  You can also test this on a regular desktop PC.  If it works there and not on a laptop, a Powered USB hub is recommended.
