510 battery problem....Helllllp - e-cigarette-forum.com • The place for electronic cigarette reviews, news and chat

I know that I should post this to the product specific area but I do not have enough posts to do so.
I think I may have screwed up a battery by using the wrong brand charger. I have bought so many different brands of kits that I inadvertantly screwed my Titan 510 manual switch into my Nucig usb charger. Fit just right, light came on like it was charging but now it does not work. I wondered why it was taking so long to charge up and when I looked at the charger and it became apparent what I had done. Screwed right in without a problem but I think it may have been charging in reverse polarity. Now when I put it in my PCC the "bad battery" light comes on. Any thoughts on how to save my battery. It' just a few weeks old and I'll have to wait a week to get another in the mail if it's truly crapped out.

I'd email the person you bought it from to see what they say. Different chargers probably charge some at higher or lower voltages, thus I guess it could have been permantely fried.

I'm new at this with a 510, but I don't have any others to get it mixed up with when charging. Maybe someone with more experience can come along & help.

batexp sorry I didn't get back with you last night, was a busy day yesterday. Tonight I pulled a first by lifting my donkey's foot and putting iodine on it. Least the 20 year old girl is still alive, but we have had a very expensive rough year.

I will give you a hint, we are Nationally known for UFO's, Cowboy Capital of the World or where Ty and Jewels Murray live (have no ideal where though). Past that it's about a hundred miles SW of the DFW metroplex...college town....

Where is Seabrook, Texas? Don't recall ever having gone through there in my younger days, but I haven't combed the whole state either.
