Yes, that seems to be an issue, more so with the silver LT's so I was told over at the Volcano forum. I was also told that it would possibly work its self out with repeated use over a day or two. Mine is working fine now BUT if you have continued to have issues with yours log in and send in a ticket at the Volcano website and they will take care of you.
EDIT: Most issues with the fire button seem to be more of a sticky button in nature but a fire button issue of any kind will be taken care of I am most confident. Call and/or send in a ticket to customer service if need be.

my button is having a similar issue, but not "sticking"...
Probably 3 times out of 10, sometimes more, when I press the button.. it doesn't fire. I am not pressing too lightly.
I have found that if I just let go and press again it works. AND, if I just continue to hold the button, it will fire in about 1-2 seconds.
Any one else have this issue? I have a black one that I recieved a few days before Christmas.

mine is black too... but now, it just works nicely, it start to happen occassionally..
Two "power tubes" just showed up at my house today. I hope this is an isolated problem.
Not a "deal breaker" IMO. If ya got it bad then you know what to do....let us know your thoughts on them and enjoy...
my button was sticking enough to annoy me once too often. I opened a ticket with Volcano and they emailed an RMA prepaid shipping label to me. I sent it off and had a new LT in 8 days. Can't complain at all about the CS at Volcano.
I thought the button on mine was faulty as well. I soon discovered that it stops firing if you ease off the pressure/relax your finger on the button. Keeping a constant pressure on the button seems to be the key with mine. More of a learning curve than a fault....still lovin' this mod.

Yea, it's a really good mod and especially so when I quit handling it with such kid gloves and really started working the fire/activation button and guess what......works like a charm as you say......glad you're enjoying it.....
+1 to this.I thought the button on mine was faulty as well. I soon discovered that it stops firing if you ease off the pressure/relax your finger on the button. Keeping a constant pressure on the button seems to be the key with mine. More of a learning curve than a fault....still lovin' this mod.
I've had mine for about a week. Last night the button started sticking in every so often. I took the battery out and wiped the whole thing down real good with Windex on a towel. The button has worked perfectly since. Perhaps some dust got in there or something but cleaning it really well did the trick!
mine has been sticking on and off for 7 days, removed the battery , blew inside to pop buttons out and works good for a little bit, I think the design part is the problem because since it is made to be flush, it seems to stick to the sides of the button, I don't know , it ...... me off so much I bought a Provari and I'm keeping this one as a backup.
My Lavatube started misfiring after having it for a couple weeks (recently purchased one). I can confirm the posts about cleaning the inside of the mod. I took a rab, dabbed a little rubbing alcohol on it, and gave the battery compartment a good wipe down. So far no misfires (knock on wood).
Hope this helps.
On a side note, the Lavatube is a very nice device. A little TLC towards it now and again is a small price to pay.
