I know there was a thread some time ago about this issue and i had the same problem which was basically a slight internal wobble when the fire button was depressed a little (mainly with the fire button facing down). I had this issue on my mini, but usually with a 490 in, although i can now feel it a little bit with a 350 in.

From what i can remember someone diagnosed it as being a loose circuit board because of the glue used in the slots, which seems correct as i tried to see if it would move by taking the battery out and seeing if there was any movement with my finger (there was - someone described it as like being a loose tooth which is pretty accurate).

Anyway, i just wondered if any of those of you that had this problem returned your provari to provape for repair and if so how long it took? Mine is still under warranty and the shop i got it from in the UK said that they would try and repair it but if they couldnt they would send it over to provape for repair.

I know for some it's a pretty easy job to just pop the top cap off and re-glue it themselves but i really am rubbish with this kind of thing so dont want to mess with it!

Mine came back on the seventh day, and it was good.

But there's only a state between us (if you can count that goofy northern part of Idaho a state - you could throw a potato from Montana to Washington & miss the spud state), not an ocean. I don't think I'm going out on a limb, but I would think transit time just might throw in a few extra days for the long voyage here & back. Just a hunch. :)

Just a thought, but.....

"Mine is still under warranty and the shop i got it from in the UK said that they would try and repair it but if they couldnt they would send it over to provape for repair."

Will ProVape still warranty it if some shop in the UK messes with it first? I don't know, just thinking ahead.

Yeah, i did consider this but the shop is a pretty trustworthy one (Liberty Flights) and consumer rights here would side with me if there was a problem - the shop would be accountable if the warranty was invalidated as a result of their attempted repairs. Weirdly, since i started this thread the wobble has miraculously disappeared! I'll probably leave it for now, see how it goes and then when i eventually take it in within the warranty period I'll get my 2nd :)
