It goes to purple after about 10 to 15 mins . My problem is that I can't locate the filter on amazon and that sucks

Most likely the installation is incorrect. Please take a look at the youtube video at IntelGadgetsTV to see 2 different types of installation. As a quick fix, try switching the tubes at the bottom of the ionizer, sometimes it's mixed up.For any assistance, installation questions, warranty, feedback, please contact us at support@intelgadgets.com (24/7) or 1-888-200-3370 (Mon-Fri 10am-6pm EST)

The indicator light for 66-100% charge (which is green) will be on, not blinking. Otherwise, it would be blinking with whichever color corresponds to its level of charge.

My light is green. I think it was red when I first plugged it in. I leave it plugged in after each use, so it's always green. Hope this helps.

Mine does go from red to green but it takes a long while to do so. Batteries charge rapidly and then each addition step takes longer so sometimes it takes really long for the cut-off to "trip". Here is a suggested test: charge the battery overnight then unplug it but do not use it and let it cool down. Now plug it in again and after about 30 minutes, see if the battery is hot. If that is the case, you have a defective charger and should consider returning.

Mine is green up because the air flow is from the bottom up. The air flow should be from black to green. There should be an air flow direction arrow on the side of it.

Mine did mention purple, but it never worked. I ended up tossing it and buying one that worked no problem from Home Depot.

No visual indicator. Perhaps, you notice buildup :-) . I use rechargeable batteries, changing it when I notice little slowdown.

This is a known software bug in the Explorist line. Always set your battery type to 'alkaline' until the bug is found and fixed. This, and lots more info can be found at the magellaninsiders website. I am AzRoute66 and at your service along with a whole load of folks more experienced than I. By the way, your batteries are/were not inferior/defective/discharged - the unit just reported them that way.

On mine (green band with orange, blue, purple around face) the digits light up and background stays darker.

Same happened to me. In my case the new X4 worked the first time, i.e. I first turn on the RC then I connect the battery in the X4 and the RC light indicator turns green.

I think it tells you if the unit is charged [green light] or not [red] but I can't test mine right now because it is charged.

I don't think its a light so much as it is an indicator. Just it starts out green wen as it wears out it becomes red. That's my experience anyway.

I'm pretty sure it changes to a green when charged... I have a couple of lights and seems as though all of them change to green-ish when charged.

It's been a while since I've been able to use mine. However I believe all the buttons can go green or red. So you need to be more specific where the red light is and when it's going on. ( For me to tell you what is happening) Please reask the question with more details ill be glad to help.

The light on top was alternating red/green. I thought it might mean the batteries, but I checked & they are fully charged.Now, I can't get it to work at all, no lights, no pump, nothing...yes, the batteries are installed correctly. Any ideas?

We had a power fault that disrupted a number of electronic gadgets. Remove battery, unplug charger for 30 seconds. Upon battery insertion you should have two solid red indicators (no blinking red). If all is okay in 3-4 hours a proper charge yields solid red and green. Remove bat and push green test button, this should yield four green indicators. If not go to plan "B". Cheers, Dennis

It is green, but there were no instuctions. It was pretty easy to figure out, but I'm pretty sure the unit they sent me was a display. I was not happy about that!!
