Top 10 Dry Herb Vaporisers

On the Arizer Air range (Air 2, Air Max, ArGo), a flashing red light most often signals the battery. A red flash while plugged in usually means the unit is charging, and it typically switches to green or turns off when the charge is complete. A red flash on its own, when not plugged in, generally points to a low or depleted battery, or a poor connection between the battery and the contacts. Exact flash patterns vary by model and firmware, so check the manual that came with your specific unit to confirm what the colour means for your device.

Work through the simple checks first. Put the vaporiser on charge with the original cable and a known-good plug, and leave it long enough for a full charge. If it uses a removable 18650 battery, take the battery out and refit it to reseat the connection, and wipe the battery contacts and the inside of the battery tube with a dry cloth or cotton bud to clear any residue. If the light still flashes red after a full charge and a contact clean, the battery may be worn out or faulty, so try a fresh compatible cell or contact Arizer support if the unit is still under warranty.

Charge when the battery indicator runs low rather than leaving it flat for long periods, which helps preserve battery life on portable units. Clean the heating chamber and mouthpiece regularly, as residue build-up is one of the most common causes of weak vapour, uneven heating and error lights. Let the device cool fully first, then use the brush or isopropyl swabs supplied or recommended by the maker, and follow your model's manual for which parts are safe to remove.
