    Triton battery dead? No vape, not charging...

    Steve, as the batteries are shipped with 80% or so charge, I don't see any reason that they could not be returned the same way, although taping the connector lightly might not be a bad precaution. I would stop off at the post office and ship it in a bubble-wraplined envelope. I've done that...

    Triton battery dead? No vape, not charging...

    By the way, for what it is worth, and I hope you don't mind, I both posted in the Halo recommendation sticky, as well as their facebook page this situation (not by name) as evidence that they seriously need to ammend their web site with a front-page tab to clearly spell out return policy...

    Suggestions & Feedback

    One big suggestion for the Halo site concerning returns? A Halo customer in this forum unfortunately got a defective battery (Hey, it happens to the best of them!). Especially in light that you do not have an actual support tel. number, I think that you really need to have a "Return Policy" tab...

    Triton battery dead? No vape, not charging...

    No way! Although Halo's return policies are not the most liberal that I have seen, they offer either full refund or exchange of a defective battery for 30 days. Drop them an email and they will get you started. My only "beef" is that no, unfortunately they do not cover return postage, but it...

    Triton battery dead? No vape, not charging...

    Although you might try "working it" a bit, if the button won't spring back properly there is not much else to do other than return it. Battery switch problems while not frequent, do occur. So far with 4 Triton batteries, all the switches work with a consistent feel/action that leads me to...

    Fasttech bydtech Batteries

    Its all relative. You may well get a knock-off battery from fasttech and be surprisingly pleased with it, as long as you accept that the low cost entails greater risk. Even from the same company, knock off batteries may vary wildly in terms of quality from batch to batch. Many knock-off clones...

    Simple & Strange Things I've Learned on ECF

    1. Always appreciate what you have as long as it works for you! There is no shame in loving an 808 ciga-like, nor necesarily any hubris because a member waxes enthusiasatic about his/her Provari. Folks get excited about gear that works for them, and tend to promote it (and why not?) 2...

    Out of stock?

    By no means a Halo employee, but my understanding is that it is a matter of days before a large re-stock for Halo products. I know that Halo has had a large influx of customers and probably got caught a bit off-guard. You won't get much response during the holiday week-end. Hopefully this week...

    Sorry that it did not fix it dropped9. Sounds like a replacement is in order. :(

    A $12 Ego? Reliability of FastTech Products / Is this a good intro level PV?

    While the batteries won't be quite up to the quality of name brand eGo's, for the price, you can't go too far wrong. I would recommend either of the 2 battery/2 clearomizer kits. If you are going to be using it "on the go" you might opt for the shorter 650mah batteries, but of course run time...

    Good descriptions Detail Man! :)

    Triton battery dead? No vape, not charging...

    I tend to think that it was not shorted out, or the led probably would not light. It may be that the battery center post got pushed down just enough to fail to contact. That would not be inconsistent based on the results when attempting to charge, either. This video is for an eGo battery, but...

    Need a new Halo juice suggestion

    Also, don't be afraid to step out of the box. I was never much of a menthol smoker, but I have really taken to Malibu as a vape. The menthol part of the blend is very noticable, but for me, very enjoyable. I have found that with vaping, what you will like may be surprising. I have liked some...

    Disappointed in Halo's Customer "No" Service

    Yeah, and I didn't mean to come across quite so "heavy"... my apologies. :) Not in your case, but I wager that a full 50% of "defective" parts turn out not to be defective at all, and are either from confused customers who are mistaken, or those that obviously trashed the product. In fact...

    Triton tanks

    I agree jefsview and Shuttlefield. Some ejuices are much tougher on the coils themselves (not so much the wicks) as far as leaving a baked on residue. I have one coil that has gone well over a month now and going strong, but also have one that only was good for about 2 weeks...but based on the...

    Disappointed in Halo's Customer "No" Service

    Huh? You just said in your previous post: "I'm having the same issue... I just received a dead G6 battery. Now I have to ship it back for them to look at before I get a replacement. I consider this poor customer service. I've had things like this happen on several different occasions with...

    Good starter kit?

    Ebbie I wish you guys the best of luck, quitting the cigarettes. Although the Triton/clearomizer combo gives the best vaping pleasure, I absolutely get his desire to keep it simple with a "ciga-like" style slim battery and pre-filled cartomizer, and if that makes it all easier and more...

    Triton and G6 Tank Cleaning

    That was a good video on cleaning however, I would caution folks to be very cautious with their dry burn. IMHO 6 or 7 seconds is way too long. If the wicks are close to dry, it is easy to char them. I have quit dry burning, as after a refill, a couple of weak hits and then you should be good to...

    I really like Mt Baker's Coumarin Pipe tobacco! Not an over-powering flavor (don't let the pipe-tobacco designation fool you) but very unique with a very pleasant finish on the exhale. Spinfuel included it in a recent review...
