Im not sure its normal and I forgot when i bought it (almost a month ago) that if it was normal for the fire button to rattle when you shake it? I did a bit research and all i could find was that provape had "widened" the hole to prevent sticking. Its doesnt really bother me but im just paranoid that it isnt normal and that it could fall out any second down the road lol.

Also while I'm at it I have a question about warranty when bought at a vape shop. I bought my provari Mini while I was in Cali (San jose) while visiting family for vacation as a present for myself. Does provape honor their 1year warranty when bought at vape shop? They guy helped me out at the shop said yeah but wanna make sure

The button cover wobbles a bit on both my Minis.
Since the actual button switch is mounted directly to the circuit board, I am sure it is just the button cover that is loose.
I have never read about a button falling off, so I wouldn't worry about it.
If when you push on the button it doesn't fire or is intermittent, that would be an indication there is something faulty.

If you have the receipt, I am pretty sure Provapes will honor the warranty. You should send them an email to confirm.

I have both the v2 and v2.5 minis and I've never sat there and shook it to see if anything rattled lol. I did just now and it almost unnoticeable. It doesn't mess up any part of my vaping in any way though. They never misfire or get stuck in place or anything like that. . I would just shoot provape an email if it's really concerning you though, never hurts to ask questions :)

Are you sure it's just the button & not the battery?


Test:

Lightly hold the button with your thumb (without firing) & give a light shake -- still something rattling? It's the battery.. and the end-cap spring needs to be stretched out a little

If no rattle, then it's the button... Mine does it a little (less than 2 weeks old) & has some "play," but it's because as you mentioned, they widened the hole a bit due to earlier models getting stuck


Honestly, I'd rather have a slightly jiggly (yet consistent as all heck) button, as opposed to it getting stuck on me one day.. :shock:


Unless it's annoyingly obnoxiously loud and/or looks like it's falling off, I wouldn't worry about it :)
