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! 🙂


It doesn’t look that way. https://us.switch-bot.com/pages/switchbot-bot
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.
LMBO I posted the answer to your question in this same thread at the exact same time you asked it.
