So, I just got a used Provari Mini from the classifieds in a trade from Greece. It worked great for about 40 minutes, now it won't fire...

The menu system works perfectly, it will check ohms, etc. The same devices fire on my other Provari, and I have tried multiple batteries/ end caps. I am very angry right now.

One thing to note, if I put on a 1.4 ohm coil and try to fire it at, say 6V, it won't shoot out an error message. I am adding this info to help troubleshoot, I would never try to do something so silly.

Whatever is happening inside is just preventing it from firing. THe menu works, the LED works, the button lights up when pressed, just no firing.

What should I do?

Sending it back to Provape is pretty much out of the question as I assume I have no warranty for it now, and they gouge with shipping to Canada.

Thoughts, suggestions?

I had one of mine that started doing something like that but it was also giving an E8 and E5 error codes. I contacted Provape and they told me to give it a bath. Pour about a shot glass full of 99% Iso alcohol into the battery compartment and shake it good. Pour the alcohol out and let it dry for at least 8 hours before putting the battery back in. I followed their instructions and mine is working like a champ again.
