Scrambled alien looking LCD display yesterday? (AirGradient One)

Hey guys, thank you all for providing us with your feedback about the display. We’ve found that it could happen very randomly (some units don’t have the issue, some come back normal after several hours without doing anything, some rarely occur, some are more frequent). We suspect that it might be caused by electromagnetic interference. Our engineer is working to find a reliable way to reproduce this issue.

Every case seems to be resolved by a power cycling (unplugging and plugging in the USB-C (or the wall charger)). In case you can catch this issue red-handed, if possible, please take some photos and observe how it behaves (for example, does it fix itself after 12-24 hours?, is power cycling able to resolve it?).

We are also working on the firmware side to see if we can resolve this on the fly (without a hard power cycling). I will let you know if we come up with more details. Thanks!

I should also add, power supply resolution tried and still issue present. Brand new in use since Feb 2026 and issue started around mid/end of March. No custom firmware, just updates from AirGradient.

Happy to offer up any details that could help resolve.

Thanks


I have been experiencing the scrambled screen for a few months now. Power cycling does fix the issue but within a week I am back to scrambled again.

Don’t have much besides general WiFi iperating in the house. Not like it’s installed next to my microwave either :joy:. I dont have anything power related near the Air Gradient One either. I placed on a wall by itself to capture the main Living Area.

Would be good to understand this problem and fix it. Power cycling isn’t the solution long-term.

Thanks
