If you've built your tree and it works perfectly but doesn't like to stay off (i.e. you press the power button, it shows the power down sequence, goes dark and then a short time later it turns back on) it is because we made a mistake with a few of the 16F685 PICs that is fixable.  Apparently I made a small batch of them with the watchdog timer enabled and missed it in testing.  There are two remedies for this...

  1. If you can program the pic yourself, just download the code and re-burn it (making sure the watchdog timer is disabled)
  2. Contact us and we will happily swap out the pic for one with the watchdog disabled.
