According to the official FAQ, blinking of the lower LED indicates a low battery level. If all LEDs continue to blink, try resetting the device; if that does not resolve the issue, temperature protection may be active, so return the device to a normal temperature environment and check again. Do not assume a malfunction based solely on the number of blinks, and be careful not to mix up the instructions for Ploom X and X ADVANCED.
