Unhappy My first atomiser has died - help!

Hello guys!

I know this has probably been covered before but I think my first atomiser has packed. It's a super-mini (RN4081) from Pillbox.

I've changed the cartridge, but a fresh battery on, and the LED lights up but there's no vapour whatsoever.

Is there anything I can do to get it working again?

It did this a couple of days ago for a while but then started working again suddenly

I might give that a go - it can't hurt can it?

You've only had your e-cig 4 days and you've got 250 posts? You post like a demon!

What do you do for a living? Post on this forum?

if the draw with battery connected is exactly the same as the draw with the battery not connected.. clean the end of the connections.. if this dosnt work its dead.. atomizer burnt out of the switch in the battery has failed..

if its the same with both batteries the fault is in the atomizer..

knock it bang it jump on it.. but once problems start the only real answer is a new part..

Too bad atomizers don't make a death sound as they expire. But they just up and die, Spider. Many die on first use after a bath. Some are working fine one minute, croaked the next.

Try E-CPR, cleaning it under running water or in rubbing alcohol. I've had near-death atomizers improve. My e-cigar seemed dead a few days ago, I washed it, and it wisped back to feeble existence. I have killed two by drowning them, however, so immersing electronics in water seems to carry a risk.

What have you to lose now, however? Baptise the thing, brother! Put your hand on it, shove it under water and shout "Demons out. I command thee. Demons be gone. Heal!"

Let us all know if that works.

Refresh me because I missed it. How long have you had this mini?
