A8000 LED not on
Adapter working but LED isn't on. If adapter getting power is LED burnt out? Unit less than a month old.

I did switch ports and light came on. What I can;t figure out is power would be going to power unit as well as light;unit was working but light wasn't. Doesn't make sense.

Not all USB ports are equal. Some deliver more juice.
Then there is Windows and its habit of turning off USB devices to save power.
