Fire button always Red when firing

You're the one with the frog...

Yup, I am. He prefers to read soft porn as opposed to modern literature.

Today I noticed the fire button, The Button as there is only one, glows RED whenever the unit is fired. It use to be green and only turn red, and flash, when the battery was low.

I've tried many things from changing the battery, taking the battery out and holding down the fire button for 10+ seconds, turning the unit off then back on. I'm using AW IMR 18490 & 18650 batteries. It does it with all of them.

The unit still functions the same, fires whenever you press the button, and the menu system is still accessible and functioning.

Yes I have contacted Provape and waiting to hear back.

Just wondering if this has happened to anyone else and if it has did they fix it themselves or did the unit need to go back to Provape.
Provari is only 5+ weeks old. Bought/ordered on the 19th of May. Started using it around the 27th of May.
Thanks.

Just curious. Are you in Washington State or Colorado?

I was wondering that as well, could be a dry herb tank on that provari.

You know, that would explain some of the disagreements we were having.

Wow. 10 characters.

We know. That's what we've been talking about. It doesn't light up with magic. There's an LED under there.

Not true. Many were mentioning blue and green. You can figure out the rest.

Blue and green = color of the fire button LED if you have a blue or green Provari LED screen. That's why those colors were mentioned.

Long story short, the button never changes color for any reason. It's either blue, green or red & matches the color of the display... which also never changes color.

Oh, got it. Thanks!

Maybe the OP is beta-testing the new P3!


But your omelet theory is probably more likely...

A lot of people don't understand basic electronics - how an LED actually works. It can't be 2 colors, ever. There are 2+ color LED's, but they're essentially 2+ micro or nano LED's built into one unit. More often than not the circuit is just engineered with 2 different color LED's right next to each other for the "Green=Charged, Red=Plug It In" stuff. If you look at the MVP2's, they don't even try to hide that the 3 different color LED's are in 3 separate spots.

Plus a lot of devices (vape & non-vape) have gotten us used to the Green/Red LED status in regards to what the battery is doing, hence the original confusion in this thread.

But you can never discount the omelet.
