I just bought this. I turn it on and 10 seconds later the temp led flashes in red and it turns the projector off, this is my first use.

I'm not sure what your question is. Mine did not do this so maybe you got a defective one; sorry.

This machine needs to be well ventilated. They do run hot.is it away from other machines???

You can unplug the projector immediately, although I finish up with other things and give it a bit to cool down, but that's probably for me and not the projector.

I have had it for few months and it works fine all colors flash as expected . my guess would be a possible malfunction , probably good idea to call them for replacement .

I have set the temp at 86 deg and it has been flashing for 2 months When I lower the temp it stops flashing at 80 deg Its sad to see so many poeple having the same type problem I question weather its worth dealing with online companys like the Innomax and Amazon Kinda like they take your money and RUN

Perhaps they have changed something but ours does not have a red light. Perhaps the flashing red means it is heating. Does it heat up? Did you try a different setting rather than on high? I'd try to leave it on a couple hours to see what happens. If it does not go off, then malfunction.

I don't know. From what I can tell when it is heating it flashes, mine flashes at 80 only when it is heating. I turned mine on, adjusted the up button until display read 80, they recommend between 80 and 85. It will flash when it heats, keeping the temp set at 80. just make sure you adjust the temp with the up button to 80 or higher. Does the display go to 80 when you adjust? How long have you had it on? Mine took a day and 1/2 before it heated to where I had it sat. You might have a bad unit. I really feel sorry for you if you do, I know these are not easy to change.

I would unplug it and replug it in, and go through each step again. When I first started using it, I would forget and set the temperature first instead of last. Look for the blinking dot next to the temperature.

The projector did well during PowerPoint's (primarily text) the issue is the length of time the projector would be on. Mine died/shut itself off/overheated on a regular basis every 15 to 20 minutes.

It should glow right away. Check to make sure your plug is 'live'. Otherwise, you got a defective unit.

That's what I wondered too, if it needed to "warm up" first, or be in an extra-dark room. You may have a faulty one too like me. I had to tap on it near the bottom & turn it upside down & hold it it at an angle to get it to light up-not what you should do to make it work! Email Amazon & they'll fwd it to Scientifics & they should email you back w/phone #. I called them today & they said Fedex would pick it up next day & send me another one. So hope next one works! Good luck with yours! :)

Yes, I experienced this. I purchased dimable LED bulbs that don't burn as hot and it fixed the problem. A little pricey, but worth it if you want to use the light.

I've never had this problem. An LED should NEVER get any more than slightly warm unless something is wrong.

This might be a repeat answer. If you have pluged the unit into another outlet and the light still flashes I think you should return it.

My works right away. I just turn it on and I start using it. You may have a defective piece.

It sounds to me like you have problems with the receiver board. Does the red led on the receiver board burn steady, or does it remain flashing AFTER BINDING? Also, are all the electrical plugs pushed firmly into their sockets on top of the receiver board? Just a couple of suggestions that you might check on (if you haven't already done so).

Hi Rhonda, when you plug it in and the light flashes you need to push the button to the right of the one flashing that will set the temp and start the melting. If you did that and it still doesn't work send it back, my aunt had one that didn't heat and was able to replace it no problem. Ann

After plugging in, I let the LED screen run it's course before programming to cook. The course starts at yellow, to red to green and rather quickly. If it stops on red, there is a problem. Check your outlet to be sure it's grounded. Also while the course runs, the digital screen will load up. If the screen stops on ERROR, I believe the machine is kaput. My first one did this. At that time, I was still able to get it replaced for free.
