Default Battery problem

I plug it into the charger and the led lights up and it seems to be charging fine but whether sucking from the battery or sucking from the atomizer (dry smoke) I can't get it to go........weird

Had the same problem with one I ordered off ebay, they talked to thier supplier and told me they got a bad batch of batteries. I returned them and they sent me new ones. Send an email to whom you bought them from and explain the problem.

Might have to cut your losses and find a new place to buy from. Unfortionatly there are a lot of shady people selling these things. I know from experience (lost over $100).

In my short time of e-smoking, I've quickly realized that batteries working properly are like a roll of the dice. I have 3 batteries. 2 worked fine after the 8 hour initial charge, but the last one was dead. The light would start flashing on the first puff.

I was ready to go through the hassle of sending it back, but thought I would try charging again one last time.. Not only did it work, but it is now the best battery out of all three! Go figure.

if you want...since you have nothing to lose at this point...

get some compressed air...take the straw end and get it close to the battery hole on the atomizer end and give it a few quick shots of air...maybe that will help free up the switch
