Default Astro A50 Gaming Headset Review - Big Bug Found

I spent the last week with the Astro A50 gaming headset perched on my melon, and was genuinely impressed with its performance. The A50 headset simply made my gaming experiences a lot better. Then getting towards the end of my evalution I came across a nasty A50 bug. A bug that has been known by Astro Gaming for the better part of four years and is still not fixed. You will want to read this before throwing down $300 on a gaming headset. So in middle of writing this review, I was of course still using the Astro A50. No better way to write an evaluation than while the product is literally wrapped around your head. Last Friday morning, my A50 was fully charged, and I set it back down on the base after using it for an hour or so to go grab a drink. When I came back to put the A50 on, the lightning bolt LED on the base was blinking. I had not seen it do this before. I put the A50 and got nothing.
