    Hi, I have contacted Vor Tech but wanted to see if anyone else has had the same problem. I have had an MP40w for 2 months now, all of a sudden it won't go into night mode. It just flashes green and blue and impellor doesn't go round.

    Might be a programming error.

    Vortech have replied: Clear out the driver memory by holding the mode and set together (red/white/blue), then just the mode (red/purple) then just the set until it defaults to the constant green. Then you can reconfigure your settings. It worked :):):)

    Glad to hear it's resolved. I don't use the night mode on mine.
