I got my wooting yesterday and when I went to customise the RGB when I changed to one of the modes it disconnected due to it asking for too much power. An error popped up saying something along those lines, that it is asking for too much power and it wouldn't reconnect and I had to restart my pc. It happened twice yesterday and another issue that happened today was when I unplugged it and replugged it in it just wouldn't connect

Some problems might have the same cause content

well that guide was just talking about loose JST cable and I don't have a problem with that. The first time it didn't reconnect on the 2nd issue I just rsed my pc and it worked, the second time it happened I just replugged the usb hub on my monitor and it worked because replugged the cable didn't

#

so I think I can cross out jst cable

So you are using a USB hub?

#

It might not be able to provide enough power

oh I see

Try plugging it into your motherboard

#

I'll do that when I'm home

Also a loose JST cable can cause disconnects especially with high power consumption. Just fyi

#

I just thought it wouldn't be a loose JST cable because it only happened when I replugged it or when I was messing with the RGB which may mess with the power

#

not on all RGB settings tho
