The LED on your Athlee Camera gives you clear signals about what’s going on — whether it’s charging, ready to use, or experiencing a problem.
• Pulsing = The LED softly fades in and out.
(Think: light red → brighter red → light red again)
• Blinking = The LED turns fully on, then fully off — sharp and repetitive.
(Think: ON → OFF → ON → OFF)
These are two very different behaviors with different meanings.
• Red (Pulsing)
Charging. If unplugged and turned on, less than 20 minutes of battery.
• 🟡 Yellow (Pulsing)
Charging. If unplugged and turned on, less than 90 minutes of battery.
• 🟢 Green (Pulsing)
Charging. If unplugged and turned on, more than 90 minutes of battery.
• 🟢 Green (Fixed)
Fully charged. If unplugged and turned on, up to 10 hours of battery.
• Red (Fixed)
Less than 20 minutes of battery remaining.
• 🟡 Yellow (Fixed)
Less than 90 minutes of battery remaining.
• 🟢 Green (Fixed)
More than 90 minutes of battery remaining.
• LED Blinking (any color)
When the reset starts, the LED will blink for about 10 seconds, then stop.
Even though the blinking stops, the camera is still in reset mode and working in the background.
Wait 2–3 minutes, and a new Wi-Fi network will appear:
ATHLEE-XXXX (where the four letters are randomly generated in capital letters)
When you see this network, the reset is complete.

How to Reset an Athlee Camera
Sometimes the camera’s battery enters a failure mode. Here’s how to recognize it:
1. When Trying to Turn On the Camera
• You press the power button, but the LED does not turn on, or
• It gives a very quick blink (~0.1 seconds), then nothing.
2. When Plugging in the Charger
• The LED starts blinking continuously (not pulsing)
• It may blink in any color, often red
• It continues blinking as long as the charger is connected
If you see both of these behaviors, your battery is likely in failure mode.
