I have sent this chromebook, model NL7, back several times for repair because the device is not taking a charge and the charging indicator just blinks amber (orange). anyone else have this issue? do you know what is wrong and why it keeps happening?

  Phil, was the Chromebook completely dead? At first, it would be blinking amber, then it would turn solid, then blue when fully charged.  If completely dead, USB C uses a trickle charge to get a base charge to the unit.  It takes around 20minutes or so to get past a trickle charge if the device was completely dead. If it only blinks amber the entire time, it could be that the battery is the issue.
