RELX Blink Codes Explained: What Each Light Means While Vaping & Charging
RELX blink codes aren’t random. Each light pattern tells you something specific about your device.
The blinking light’s meaning changes based on what your device is doing. A white light while vaping means something different than the same white light while charging.
RELX light codes can point to battery level, charging status, puff protection, pod connection issues, hardware errors, or power mode on select models. The same color can mean different things depending on the situation. That’s why context matters as much as color.
Use the quick reference table below to find your answer fast.
Common RELX Blink Codes at a Glance
Note: These patterns apply to the RELX models and situations described below. Light behavior can vary between devices, so check your specific model before interpreting a blink code.
| Light pattern | When it appears | Meaning |
| Solid white | While vaping | Battery 30–100% |
| Pulsing white | While charging | The device is charging |
| Solid white | While charging | The battery is full |
| White ×3 | After a long puff | Over-puff protection |
| Continuous white blinking | Pod inserted | Pod connection issue |
| Red | While vaping | Battery below 30% |
| Solid red | While charging | Battery below 30% and charging |
| Red ×3 | During use | Connection/short-circuit issue |
| Red ×10 | The device shuts down | Battery at 0% |
| Green | Infinity 2 | Eco mode |
| Blue | Infinity 2 | Smooth mode |
| Purple | Infinity 2 | Boost mode |
RELX White Light Meaning
A white light can indicate normal operation, charging status, or certain protection features, depending on the RELX model.
Solid white light while vaping
Your battery is between 30% and 100%. The device is working fine.
Pulsing or breathing white light while charging
Your device is plugged in and actively charging. The light pulses until power is full.
Solid white light while charging
Once the pulsing stops and the light turns solid white, charging is complete. Your battery is full and ready to use.
White light blinking 3 times
White light blinking 3 times means over-puff protection has kicked in. This happens after a puff longer than 5 seconds.
White light continuously blinking when inserting a pod
If the white light blinks continuously right after you insert a pod, the device detects the pod but can’t establish a stable connection. This is a contact issue, not a dead pod.
What to do:
- Remove the pod
- Check the contacts for residue or e-liquid
- Reseat the pod firmly
RELX Red Light Meaning
Red generally signals lower battery, but the exact meaning still depends on what the device is doing.
Red light while vaping
Your battery level has dropped below 30%. Connect your charger soon to avoid a sudden shutoff.
Solid red light while charging
If the light stays solid red while plugged in, the device is charging and the battery is still under 30%. This is expected early in the charging cycle.
Red light blinking 3 times
Three red blinks point to a short-circuit or pod connection problem. This is different from the white blinking pattern and needs a closer check.
What to do:
- Remove the pod
- Check the metal contacts
- Look for e-liquid or debris buildup
- Reinsert the pod
Red light blinking 10 times
Ten red blinks mean the battery has hit 0%. The device has shut down completely. Charge it before using it again.
Note: Light patterns can vary by RELX model. Check your device-specific section below if you’re unsure what a code means.
RELX Blink Codes by Device
Different RELX models use unique light systems to show battery life and device status. Understanding your specific model helps you read these light signals correctly.
RELX Infinity & Artisan Light Codes
The RELX Infinity and RELX Artisan use a circular LED light ring to show battery status and device activity. Their light ring also works with the device’s pacing alert.
| Light / Pattern | When it appears | What it means |
| ⚪ Solid white | During use | The battery is above 30% |
| 🔴 Solid red | During use | The battery is below 30% |
| ⚪ Flash + vibration | After 15 puffs within 15 minutes | A pacing alert has been triggered |
| ⚪ Slow pulsing | While charging | The device is charging |
RELX Infinity Plus Light Codes
The RELX Infinity Plus model uses a four-bar LED light indicator to show exact battery levels:
- 4 bars: 75% to 100% battery
- 3 bars: 50% to 75% battery
- 2 bars: 25% to 50% battery
- 1 bar: Below 25% battery
When all four bars flash white, your pod is locked in place. Flashing red bars mean a low battery or charging error.
RELX Essential Light Codes
The RELX Essential uses a simple vertical LED indicator to show basic device status. Unlike the Infinity Plus, it does not provide a tiered battery display.
| Light / Pattern | What it means |
| ⚪ Solid white | The battery is at a normal level / device is operating |
| 🔴 Solid red | The battery is low |
| 🔴 Red flashing | The battery is empty or the pod is not properly seated |
The Essential does not use the pacing vibration alert or multi-level battery display found on some other RELX models.
RELX Infinity 2 Green, Blue & Purple Lights
The RELX Infinity 2 uses light color differently from some other RELX devices. On this model, color can indicate the selected power mode rather than a battery or error state.
| Light | Mode | What it means |
| 🟢 Green | Eco | Lower-power mode |
| 🔵 Blue | Smooth | Balanced power mode |
| 🟣 Purple | Boost | Higher-power mode |
These colors shouldn’t be read as universal RELX error codes. Light behavior varies by model, so what applies to the Infinity 2 may not apply to your specific device.
What Should You Do If Your RELX Keeps Blinking?
If your RELX keeps blinking and stops working, try these simple steps:
- Low battery: Plug the device into a working USB-C cable.
- Pod connection error: Take the pod out and reinsert it tightly.
- Dirty contacts: Clean liquid or dust from inside the device base using a dry cotton swab.
- Over-puff protection: Pause for a few seconds, then take smaller draws.
- Persistent error: Read your specific model manual or contact customer support.

RELX Blink Codes FAQs
Why is my RELX blinking white?
White light usually means normal operation—battery status while vaping, charging progress, or over-puff protection after a long puff.
Why is my RELX blinking red?
Red usually indicates a low battery, but some red blink patterns can indicate a pod connection or short-circuit issue. Check the light pattern and your specific RELX model to identify the cause.
Why does my RELX blink 3 times?
Three blinks in white signal overpuff protection. Three blinks in red signal a connection or short-circuit issue. The color tells you which one applies.
Why does my RELX blink 10 times?
On models that use 10 red flashes for a depleted battery, this means the battery has reached 0% and the device has shut down.
Why is my RELX blinking when I insert a pod?
Continuous white blinking after inserting a pod means the connection isn’t stable. Remove the pod, check the contacts, and reseat it.
