This is a Levoit Vital 100 and it has a timer to switch itself off after x hours but i’d like to turn it on automatically.
I’m somewhat fit with soldering and taking stuff apart but i don’t wanna go that route before i have atleast a rough understanding of what’s up with those buttons.
Thx! 🙂


I don’t see why you couldn’t stick something capacitive to the dingus.
iirc there’s a common mod with aluminum foil tape which makes them work great with capacitive touch buttons. For some reason I remember it having to touch the negative terminal for the battery too.
How would you switch it? What’s an example of something capacitive? This hadn’t occurred to me. I do know there are supposedly capacitive styli for phones, but they don’t work very well.
Human fingers.
That would work fine but you’d probably have to replace it every couple days.
Can you do toe subscriptions?
LMBO I posted the answer to your question in this same thread at the exact same time you asked it.
