Has anyone put the battery in backward? I did, and it heated up like crazy!
I put it in (after unpacking it today), then started futzing with the carts, and then picked up the pipe and it was really hot. Not skin-burning hot, but hot like a plastic steering wheel sitting in the sun on a hot day. I took out the battery, then looked in the instructions (what can I say? I'm a guy), and found out the + side goes up, not down.
Could that be what's causing my problems? It's like a couple other posters have described -- light goes on, it makes a nice crackling/gurgling sound (like my 510 when it's happy), and I get a tiny bit of vapor, but not much, and not much flavor either (even after dripping on the atty and adding liquid to the already-fresh cart).
I didn't charge the battery for 12 hours, but the charger light turned green. Does it need to charge beyond that? Did I fry out something by putting the battery in wrong? And should it even be *able* to heat up when the battery's in upside down? I would have thought that would be a good way to keep it from accidentally turning on (like with a flashlight). What's the deal?
