Ultroner Luna problem: LED flashing green 5 times when firing?
Hello guys,
I've tried to google some information on my problem but wasn't able to find anything. Maybe you fellow Luna-users can help.
Starting today, my Luna's LED flashes green 5 times instead of firing whenever I hit the fire button. I've checked the manual (vie web, since my one is in chinese), descriptions on both the Ultroner and Asmodus website and YouTube videos, and it seems there's no situation where the LED should flash green 5 times when hitting the fire button.
It flashes red 5 times if there's a short, however wrong colour and I counter-checked on a different mod aswell as my ohmreader and it's fine, no Shorts. I also tried a different RDA, same problem, so it's definitely not the atty.
It also flahes red 5 times once the battery hits 3.3 Vols and shuts of automatically. Again wrong colour, and my Luna doesn't shut off, it just stops flashing until I hit the fire button again. I also checked the battery and it' sitting at 3.7 Volts comfortably, I also tried a different, fully charged battery, same story.
I thought maybe it means 'no Atomizer' because the atty does not making proper contact or something, so I unscrewed the atty and fired, and the LED just light's up regulalrly without flashing. I guess that means that there's no LED-code for 'no atomizer' at all, so that can't be it.
Any ideas? I'm kind of lost.

Mine did this.
I might be remembering wrong, but I think it's because at the time I was either building lower than the MOSFET allowed (which would also trigger if there was a short) or pulling more amps than it allowed.
It did fire a couple times between flashing, but the mod got pretty hot. Might have have been over temperature too.
When it first started it also did fire a couple times between flashing, but shortly after started to refuse firing altogether.
I tried two RDA's on it, G.R.1 and Skyfall, both builds sitting at 0,34 ohms and working perfectly fine on other mods. No shorts.
Did you fix it somehow or did it just stop doing this for you?
I just changed RDAs. I was in the 0.145-0.165 range IIRC when it happened.
If I were you I would check for shorts. Sometimes they're not constant shorts, but short when you hold it a certain way or something. For example, I had an RDA that shorted only after a wire clipping welded itself between a post and the deck. Also had another that shorted only when held on a certain angle because the insulator was not doing it's job properly.
Like I said, I tried two different RDA's and they're definitely not shorting. The Luna flashes green and refuses to fire at all with both of them, but they work fine on all other mods, regulated and mechanical.
I also just kind of forced a short on the Luna just to double check, and it flashes RED as expected.
So unfortunately having a short doesn't seem to be the issue at least in my case. :(
No idea my man. Maybe could be an internal short or something broken on the inside? Could be tripping whatever gives the error.
