Hi all,
So for those totally new to the Ally Solos glasses, I've now got them working, so here's some observations.
I couldn't seem to charge them at first. There are two ways of charging, connecting the magnetic USB cable provided in the box to the bottom of the left arm, or disconnecting each arm and charging them separately through USBC. I tried both of these methods. When connecting the magnetic charger, there isn't a beep sound to indicate the device is charging. You just have to wait. The power button is the round dot on the right arm. Provided both arms are locked in place correctly, as soon as you touch the power button, you'll hear a beep which means they're working. If the arms aren't quite locked into place, you won't hear any indication from the power button at all, and it means they're not working. The problem was I hadn't quite locked one of the arms into place. When you first open the glasses, one of the arms is disconnected from the glasses, and you have to reconnect it. That's what I hadn't done properly originally. There must have been a very slight gap between the arm and the frame. So after I tried charging both stems separately, and reconnected them, the power button beeped as soon as I touched it. So, if the power button doesn't beep as soon as you touch it, it means the stems aren't connected properly. Hope that helps newbies like myself. In short, I've got them working. I can talk to them, take a picture and get things described.

Hi Brian,
Yep, that video is great, and there's another one done by the same lady telling you about the dot for the power button. These videos eventually put me on the right track, so thanks for those.
