Of course this happens at the beginning of my track weekend. I have a smarty cam HD rev 2.1. It won't turn on when connected to Solo 2 DL or when you hit the power button. I didn't get it to work for one session. Then it stopped working again. Overnight I charged it and it did turn on again, but turned it off put it in the car stopped working again every once in a while it will turn on most times not. Can't figure it out. I updated the SD card to the latest. SW but I can't get it to power up again to load it. Any ideas?

Ok what I noticed is if I press the off button for 10 sec then pressed again to turn it on the screen would light up then off. I repeated this process until it eventually started. I updated the firmware but it's still acting the same way hit and miss.
