If it got wet and let it dry thoroughly, then check the outlet and scrape any gunk off the charging contacts. If nothing changes, the battery may be done and you'll likely need a repair or replacement.

Hey Andrea, Thanks for the detailed feedback—stabilization is exactly what I need. Sounds like that model delivers and so I'll give it a try for my rides and paddles. Appreciate the help!

Yes and samsung sets still listen for the basic infrared commands even when the original remote is Bluetooth so a simple universal can cover power, volume, input, arrows, and play or pause without any drama. Look for one that says it controls two devices and has larger buttons since those tend to be easier to see and press and they are usually in your price range. The smoothest setup is to program the TV first using the Samsung codes in the booklet, test power and input, then add your soundbar as the second device. If your bar is on HDMI ARC, turn on Anynet Plus in the TV settings so the TV passes volume to the bar, which lets you get away with programming only the TV. No Bluetooth pairing needed. Keep the bar's front sensor in line of sight for IR and you should be set. Works great.
