Battery questions

[maxlawbr]

Hello,

I have some devices (all sedansa cigar and cigarette and 2 Njoys) and have a problem.

Sometimes I catch a battery whose led don't turn off, is there any way to fix it?

Another question, can I use my njoy batteries (pen style) with my sedansa pen style cigarette? And charge both in the same charger?

Thanks a lot.

is it blinking when it doesn'rt turn off? Or is it constant light? If blinking, then your device is 'self-cleaning' (not a good thing as it will make the taste awful- the self-cleaning mechanism was a good idea, but unfortunately gives an awful taste). If your light is constant, then I dunno- could be a faulty battery

or just a faulty led. i had a battery whose led wouldnt turn off which also meant it was active and when i plugged it into the atomizer it would keep sizzling till it blinked and then automatically shut off. not good. but if it works fine otherwise i wouldnt worry too much about it. you can take off the plastic ash cap and have a look at it. maybe disable it if that suits you.

I had a Sedansa supermini batt do that - killed it. Would charge but I couldn't use it. Same thing with a couple of generic pen batts. I've heard it said that the switch is stuck on and you can trip it by sucking hard through the battery (unscrewed from the atomiser), never had any luck with mine though

The LED don't turn off, it stays lit all the time.

I tried the "suck" method, and it didn't work,and one of the batteries is a Sedansa super mini.

Any advice?

Thanks,

Max

try taping the screw thread end of the battery gently on a hard surface to see it this will release the switch if that fails tap a little harder but dont wack it incase you puncture the unit.

The sedansa batt is in my e-cig boneyard. I'll dig it up and see if I can revive it.

It's probably a stuck switch. There are 4 things you can try; 2 out of the 4 are last-ditch efforts though (could also end it's life instead of either fixing it or keeping it the way it is).
- alternately suck and blow on the battery (do this on the side that get screwed onto atomizer; without having it screwed n there of course). Ik you see the switch starting to work well again (blow/suck sharply and strongly) then be ready to repeat this each time you start using that battery again for at least a few days (also repeat if it gets stuck again. With continued care in this way, you could end up with a normal battery after a few days... (could being keyword here).
- hold on to either end of the battery (most chance at tail-end though sometimes at top-end works too) and tap/hit it on the palm of the hand you aren't using to hold the battery; or alternatively try the movement when getting the mercurycolumn down in the old temp-meters. This is a pretty safe method, so try this first.
- if above doesn't help: hold batt in same way, then tap it sharply against a table-edge one or a few times (you could also put a cloth over the sink-edge and then hit it onto that)
- syringe a bit of alcohol into the small hole at the top of the battery; close off at both ends and try shaking/turning to get the liquid around inside; then try to get it out of there again . Let it dry well.
