Even I struggle to get the lights to flash.have to hold your mouth just right, I guess.That said, once you spend the time to get it powered up, it does it's job well and the charge pack in the VSmile Pocket unit itself holds the charge for quite awhile. I bought this recharging station to go along with my 5-year-old's pink VSmile Pocket (not Cyber Pocket).The charge pack fits well into the battery compartment, though the included charging cover didn't fit the back design of the Pocket. Luckily the included battery cover on the Pocket was pre-designed with the correct charging holes (a possible misfit was not indicated on either the Power Pack documentation OR the NEWER VSmile Pocket's documentation (I would expect SOMEthing, somewhere would have described this, rather than let me figure it out on my own).Once installed, the power pack works as it should, but I have to go over and reset the thing on the charging station as my daughter (who I bought it for so I wouldn't have to worry about it) can rarely get it to set on the station correctly so you know it's charging.
I hope that this helps all you looking to see if this is the correct power pack, I sure wish that if someone else had made the mistake of ordering this posted a comment, would have saved me time and disappointment. as far as I know the one that is for the cyber pocket is not available online as of yet. I love the v.smile systems.but just to let you all know, so you don't make the same mistake I did. I ordered this thinking that it would be compatible with my children's v.smile CYBER pocket, well it's not.
Highly recommend purchasing this product if you have the V.Smile Pocket system. Easy enough that our 4 year old can set his V.Smile on the charger when he knows the battery is low. VTech must've worked out the bugs because we haven't had any problems with ours. Easy to use, no juggling 'just so' to get it to work.
It is a lot better than having to constantly change the batteries. The batteries when charged last a long time. We bought this for our 3 1/2 year old daughter along with the VSmile Pocket for Christmas. She loves the VSmile so it is great just having the battery charger.
We've found that the lithium batteries last just as long as the charge for this product so we've invested in rechargable batteries and are much happier. You have to be very careful putting the v-smile pocket on it and even if you do it might lose connection when you're not looking. It lasted a year and a half (not bad) and now we're back to batteries.
