Has anyone who used this had a fuse/relay blow in their car? Also, the green light stays on when my car is off.

I have gotten two of these diffusers and both times they blew out fuse and did not work for very long. Very annoying experience. I will try cotton balls like someone else suggested.

No fuses blown! The light on diffuser goes off when my car is turned off. My car has more than one lighter. One is hooked to the ignition so it turns off when car is off. The other is hooked to car battery so doesn't go off when car is off.

No, I've had nothing like that with my car diffuser. My only complaint about it is that it doesn't put out much aroma. Otherwise, no problems. I'm wondering if you just have a bad cigarette lighter or bad fuse.

Yes, the diffuser blew my 20 amp fuse a couple of times so I put a 25 amp fuse in, and they blew too. The 25 amp fuse did last longer though. And my green light never goes off, even when the car is turned off. That is until it blows my fuse.

forgot to say,these cars also have a really big fuse to, plus relaysand if your blowing a lot of fuses, there is a different kind of problem

Mine goes off when I turn my car off, so if your blue light stays on when the car is shut off- you may want to unplug it.

Electric cord to charge the unit + the usual tubing that attaches to the tire stem (Electric disconnected) Didnt work for me and I am still loking for a replacement. I still cant decide which other unit is better. Some blow fuses, but they sell an adapter to run unit directly off your car battery. Good luck and let us know if you have sucess.

Mine turns off when I turn the car off and turns on when I turn the car on. I never use the SRC button to turn it on/off.

Mine burnt up while it was in use, and the car wasn't on. Had to get a different one. It works great, when the car is on or not.

I bought this a couple of months ago. It will not switch off when the car ignition is off. I am really baffled why it was designed that way. I have no idea what will happen after 19,000 hours. I have only had mine for a relatively short time. I will have to wait till then to find out.

I'm not 100% sure what you are asking, for me, only my passager side worked, and it was just a constant white, the drivers side didn't not light up at all for me. And that's where I think a fuse was blown in my car.

I had this issue before, and when asked a friend who had installed he same wire he said his does the same, however, and after 4 months my wire gave out and stopped working... when i got the replacement, the red (alert) light stayed off and only the green light is on unless there is a real alert.So I am not 100% sure if it is defective, but the red light should come on only when there is an alert.

You likely have it in car mode where it turns off when unplugged. Take a good look through the settings.

Our green light does not blink but stays solid. Try plugging in car and home. To see if there's a difference. Good luck!

I can't recommend it at this point. I installed one two months ago (and the installation was relatively easy), but last week the car started acting up electronically again (had to jump it off a couple of times, strange beeps after turning it off, ...). So this time we took it to the local dealer, their diagnostics said the battery was bad, they replaced it, and so far we haven't had any more problems. Stay tuned though, because it wouldn't surprise me if somehow the recharge circuitry is screwed up, and this hasn't been a 12 volt battery issue after all.

I still have the initial fuses. Don't move it when it's working nor after working. It needs time to get cold. If you don't do that the fuses use to break.

Nope, the light never came on since the switch was off, I suspect there was a faulty connection at one point so I will have a smog shop reaet the codes for you in anticipation to a "smog inspection"

Mine does the same thing, it's common with LEDs. They have very little draw and should turn off completely when the car is off.

Yes, I fused mine and when I put the fuse in heard a "pop" that was really scary and sounded like a dead short. Didn't blow the fuse and works correctly though.

Ya I have the same problem to and called the company and they said don't pay any attention to it. Some time after a vehicle passes and you hit the red light it will go off. But most of the time it stays on. Hope that helped a little.
