Two pieces register only if picked up not just by touch

I purchased the board at Christmas and have recently noticed that there are a couple of pieces that only “register” (i.e. light up the board) when picked up but not when touching them as the other pieces do. Is this expected behavior or faulty pieces?

We can replace the pieces for you. It happens on occasion (most often with white bishops). Reach out to info@bryghtlabs.com

Thanks for the reply. Actually, one of the two is a white bishop :slight_smile: If I recall correctly the other is a white rook but need to check. Thanks again!

Are you pressing them firmly enough on the board? Both my knights were doing this but it turns out I just needed to use a bit more pressure.

There is no need to press the pieces. Just play like on a ‘normal’ board. If there is a problem with playing like that reach out to costumer support info@bryghtlabs.com.
