Finkicy button

[El-ahrairah]

So I've had my Provari for a few weeks now and I'm loving it for the most part. However, my button seems to be a bit under sensitive when I press it. When I press it, sometimes it doesn't activate and I have to apply a tad more pressure, or it will activate but slightly less pressure will turn it off even though the button is still pressed.

I may just be nit-picking but it can be bothersome at times when I'm doing something can can't look at the button to make sure it's on, like driving, and I don't want to have to mash down on the button.

Does that happen to anyone else's Provari?

Same here. Ive learned to just give it some more pressure.

I think I may know what you're talking about, I just aim for the center of the button with a straight down firm (but not too firm) push. I was being too sensitive/lax in regards to my button pressing early on and had early cut offs or not firing because I thought it was fragile or ultra sensitive and wasn't giving it a solid press. Other than that, not sure.

Hi El-ahrairah!

I call it lazy finger...

If I'm tired I notice sometimes that it stops firing because I let up on the button a little.

User error if ask me!

If the button was any easier to push you would have complaints the other way.

It doesn't happen that often to me.

Fair enough. I do tend to handle my gadgets gingerly because most of them are delicate and expensive.

Yep me too. I agree. "Lazy finger"

Good to know I'm not the only one wirh Lazy Finger Syndrome, thought my unit was defective

Not me, mine seems to activate effortlessly, it would annoy me if I had to apply too much pressure, I generally just thumb it with the side of my thumb, great while driving.

It seems to activate with less pressure than a tornado (ego), although without the click.

I hope this is the expected button behaviour as I do intend to get a backup and would ideally like it to work the same

I guess there are always going to be variations, If its problematic you could always ask for a replacement, they seem very good in that regard although I personally would be unlikely to complain unless it was clearly faulty or troublesome to use.

Hi belialNZ!

Now that you mention "thumb it" I never had my ProVari stop firing while thumbing it, So again, it still goes back to "lazy finger".

And I wouldn't want the button on the ProVari changed either!



Thanks!

On a slightly similar topic...does anyone have this same scenario?

My Provape 18650 battery...when I give the lower portion of the Provari a slightly rough tap, just above the extension cap, I can hear the battery hitting the side of the provari's wall. Is this normal? Just wondering because I dropped mine about twice so far and didn't initially notice it.
