The Beri Crush 50K is draw-activated, so you fire it the way you would any disposable: just inhale. What surprises people is the single side button, which has nothing to do with firing. It switches the device into Crush Mode, a 40W setting that trades puff count for power. Here are the full instructions for the button, Crush Mode, the airflow slider, the screen, and charging, plus fixes for the problems people hit most.
The 10-Second Version
- To vape: inhale from the mouthpiece. No button needed.
- To switch to Crush Mode: press the side button once. Press again to go back.
- To change the draw: move the airflow slider near the base.
- To charge: use the USB-C port on the bottom.
How to Use the Beri Crush Vape: Quick Start
The Beri Crush is a sealed, prefilled disposable, so there is nothing to fill, assemble, or switch on. Follow these steps for your first session.
- Unwrap it. Remove the packaging and any seal or cover on the mouthpiece. A seal left on is one of the most common reasons for no vapor.
- Check the battery. If the screen stays dark, give it a short charge over USB-C and try again.
- Take a gentle first puff. Inhale slowly and steadily from the mouthpiece. The device senses the draw and fires on its own, and the screen wakes up.
- Set the airflow. Slide the airflow control near the base toward a tighter or looser draw until it feels right.
- Stay in normal mode. Normal mode adjusts power to your draw automatically, so leave the side button alone until you want more punch.
- Pace yourself. Leave about 15 to 20 seconds between puffs so the coil has time to resaturate.
Beri Crush Controls at a Glance
There are only a handful of controls, and each does one job.
| Control | Where It Is | What It Does |
|---|---|---|
| Mouthpiece | Top of the device | Inhale to fire. No button is needed for a normal puff |
| Side button | On the side of the body | Switches between normal mode and Crush Mode. Retailer guides say it is labeled Max Power |
| Airflow slider | Near the base | Tightens or opens the draw |
| Display | Front of the device | Shows puff count, battery level, and the active mode |
| USB-C port | Bottom of the device | Charges the 1,000mAh battery |
Does the Beri Crush Vape Have a Button?
Yes, but only one, and it is not the one you press to vape. The Beri Crush vape button sits on the side and has a single job: switching between normal mode and Crush Mode. Firing is automatic when you inhale, which is why some listings describe the device as having no buttons. That is true for a normal puff, and it is the reason many first-time users go looking for a button that does not exist for firing.
Do not hold the side button while you inhale, and do not press it to fire. It is a mode switch only. Pressing it by accident puts the device into 40W Crush Mode, which drains the battery faster.
How to Switch Crush Mode On and Off
Here are the Beri Crush vape button instructions, step by step.
- Wake the screen. The display wakes when you draw or press the side button, and it turns off again after a few seconds of inactivity.
- Press the side button once. The output rises to a flat 40W, and the display shows that Crush Mode is active. One retailer guide adds that the display changes color to confirm the switch.
- Press it again to go back. Retailer guides say a second press returns the device to normal mode. The Beri Crush FAQ page explains how to enter Crush Mode but does not spell out the way back, so confirm with the display after you press.
The Beri Crush FAQ page recommends using Crush Mode sparingly and staying in normal mode for roughly 80% of your vaping. That advice makes sense, because Crush Mode pulls more power and empties both battery and e-liquid faster. Wondering how the extra power changes taste? Our Beri Crush vape flavors ranked guide includes a section on how Crush Mode shifts the flavor experience across all 18 profiles.
Normal Mode vs Crush Mode
| Feature | Normal Mode | Crush Mode |
|---|---|---|
| Power | Auto-adaptive, about 15W to 25W | Flat 40W |
| Rated puffs | Up to 50,000 | Lower, roughly 20,000 to 25,000 per sources |
| Battery drain | Standard | Faster |
| Best for | Everyday vaping and flavor | Denser vapor and a stronger hit |
In normal mode, power follows your draw: a gentle inhale keeps it near the low end, and a harder pull pushes it higher. That is why a moderate, steady draw is the best starting point. In Crush Mode the output stays at 40W regardless of how you inhale, so a long, hard pull can feel intense, and it is easy to burn through the battery.
For a closer look at the quad mesh coil and the auto-adaptive power system behind these modes, read our Beri Crush 50K review. If you want to understand how power and airflow trade off, our guide to getting more flavor and bigger clouds explains it.
Using the Airflow Slider
A slider near the base controls how much air reaches the coil. Closing it gives a tighter, mouth-to-lung style draw with more concentrated flavor. Opening it gives a looser, direct-to-lung style draw with cooler, airier vapor. If you are not sure which style suits you, read our MTL vs DTL vaping guide or learn how to inhale a vape properly.
A practical rule: start with the slider partly closed for the best flavor, then open it if the draw feels restrictive or the vapor feels too warm.
Reading the Screen
The 1.77 inch HD display tracks your puff count and battery level, and retailer guides add that it shows the active mode, so you always know whether you are in normal mode or Crush Mode. The ivape.shop listing also mentions e-liquid level, so listings differ slightly on what else appears. The screen wakes on a draw or a button press and sleeps after a few seconds to save battery.
Charging Instructions
- Plug a standard USB-C cable into the port on the bottom of the device.
- The Beri Crush FAQ page says the 1,000mAh battery reaches about 80% in roughly 15 minutes and a full charge in about 30 to 40 minutes. Retailer guides quote slightly different full-charge times.
- The ivape.shop listing mentions pass-through charging, so you can keep using the device while it charges.
- In normal mode, one full charge lasts close to a day of typical use. Frequent Crush Mode use can mean charging more than once a day.
- Retailer guidance advises a standard 5V charger instead of a high-wattage fast charger, and unplugging once the battery is full.

Tips for Flavor and Battery Life
- Start with a moderate draw. Power rises with draw strength in normal mode, so a gentle, steady inhale gives smoother flavor.
- Pause between puffs. Waiting 15 to 20 seconds helps the coil resaturate and avoids a burnt taste.
- Save Crush Mode for when you want it. It cuts the rated puff count roughly in half or more, so using it all the time shortens the life of the device.
- Keep the mouthpiece clean. A wipe now and then keeps the draw clear.
- Store it upright in a cool, dry place. Heat is a common cause of leaks and muted flavor. Our vape maintenance guide has more care tips.
Troubleshooting Common Problems
No Vapor
Charge the device first, confirm any seal or cover is removed, and try a longer, steadier draw. If the screen lights up but nothing comes out, the e-liquid may be used up. Our guide on how to fix a disposable vape covers more causes.
Burnt Taste
This usually comes from puffing too quickly. Pause for 15 to 20 seconds between puffs, and switch back to normal mode if you are in Crush Mode.
Screen Will Not Turn On
Charge for 5 to 10 minutes, then draw or press the side button to wake it.
Blinking Display
Retailer guides say a blinking display usually means a low battery or depleted e-liquid. If it blinks right out of the box, contact the seller for a replacement. For other blink patterns and fixes, read our guide on why your vape is blinking.
Crush Mode Feels Too Strong
That is expected at a flat 40W. Press the side button to return to normal mode, take shorter draws, and open the airflow slightly.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you use the Beri Crush vape?
Inhale from the mouthpiece. The Beri Crush is draw-activated, so a normal puff needs no button. Use the airflow slider near the base to tighten or open the draw, and press the side button only when you want to switch into Crush Mode.
Does the Beri Crush vape have a button?
Yes, one. A side button switches between normal mode and Crush Mode. It does not fire the device, because the Beri Crush is activated by inhaling.
How do you turn on Crush Mode on the Beri Crush?
Press the side button once to switch from normal mode to Crush Mode, which raises output to 40W. Retailer guides say pressing it again returns the device to normal mode, and the display confirms which mode is active.
How many puffs do you get in Crush Mode?
Normal mode is rated for up to 50,000 puffs. Crush Mode gives fewer puffs because it uses more power per puff. Sources cite roughly 20,000 to 25,000, and real numbers depend on how you draw.
How long does the Beri Crush take to charge?
The Beri Crush FAQ page says about 15 minutes to reach 80% and roughly 30 to 40 minutes for a full charge over USB-C. Retailer guides quote slightly different full-charge times, so treat the numbers as a guide.
Does the Beri Crush have adjustable airflow?
Yes. A slider near the base lets you close it for a tighter, mouth-to-lung style draw or open it for a looser, direct-to-lung style draw.
Why is my Beri Crush not hitting?
The usual causes are a low battery, a seal or cover that is still on, a draw that is too soft, or e-liquid that has run out. Charge it, check for any seal, and try a steadier inhale. If the screen lights up but there is no vapor, the e-liquid may be used up.
Why is my Beri Crush display blinking?
Retailer guides say a blinking display usually points to a low battery or depleted e-liquid. If it blinks straight out of the box, contact the seller for help.
