WOOT!

Did you insert it into the atomizer hole and pull?

I started to but thought I'll try the battery first, and it worked 4 me.
I had to do it again after recharging so I guess it makes sense the atomizer's may be outta wack as well and nothing is precisely engineered. So have at it

try tapping it to a desk 5 times till it works. i had a bad battery too that would take a really hard drag till liquid would get in my mouth for it to work. i tried that tapping thing on the desk like another forum member did and bam! thing works like new.

That's just about the oddest thing I've had happen to me in six months. I'm skimming through this thread, looking for easy solutions, saw jdm's, hit the thing on my desk, and presto! Thank you!

Sorry to hijack, i'm having battery problem to. When I plug it into the charger, the light on the charger stays green. I let it go for a couple of hours, take it off, works for a few seconds, led turns on but no vapor. No heat from the atomizer, then the battery flashes like its dead. Anyone got any tips or this battery screwed? I'm doing the Magnum mod tonight so I'm not too worried but I'd like to do everything I can.

Watching this thread - have an intermittent batt as well. Compressed air in local computer shop is no good cos it has a bitterant in.

How could I use the footpump for the car?? Would it need a valve or what? It doesn't deliver much of a focused puff.
Maybe if I tape over the end completely and then put a small hole in the tape??

I got my dse 901 minicig two days ago. Suposed to be a back up for my n-joy. problem
is my atomizer for my n-joy took a dump yesterday, and my 901 batteries have been not
working properly since I got them. They both have been properly charged. they will work
for a few drags or even a few minutes then the just quit. No vapor no indicator light nothing. Every time they stop working I take off the battery an blow into it and take a
couple drags into it and then screw it back on and it will work for a little while, or sometimes just one drag.
The good news is that after continually doing this the batteries are giving me less and
less trouble.
My question is: is this normal for the dse 901 batteries? kind of a breaking them in period?

I will be watching for replies to you because I have the same problem. Just received three DSE 901's Friday and I have a total of six, (yeah, count em again... 6!) and I have charged them as instructed, in ways I have read on this forum, tapped them, blew into them, and still the most I can get out of one battery is maybe 20 minutes.

I thought with 6 batteries I could be the vaping queen but instead I am struggling just to keep a charge long enough to keep me away from the analog.

Very frustrated....
