1st problem i ever had

[antithesis]

on a new manual batt, that i've been vaping on for just an hour, i changed carts to one i was using earlier (on the same batt) and it won't vape.

i hit the switch and it lights up, but there's no crackle sound and no TH when i inhale, and no vape when i exhale. i was weeding through posts but can't find anything readily accessible about this.

help?

hmmm, okay, it must be that cart, cause i just put the other cart back on and it works fine. at least it's not the batt!! i can deal with a suddenly-dead fresh cart. SORRY!

I have one that will vape on a battery but not on a passthru. Sounds like u just got bad cart. I had one that I used repeatedly for about 7 fills since it vaped so good then I decided to align the hole as it was slightly off center. It never vaped again. I no longer align the center hole unless it is a hard vape.

I have a cart that does this.. it is annoying. It only works when it wants to.

Does the cart have a notch in the center post (battery end where the date is stamped)?

check your threads make sure their clean and then try to tighten it a bit more than normal i have had a few that dont seem to make a good conection. but then again had one that just died after 3 puffs go figure

Try this, if you haven't thrown it out yet.

The cartomizers have the same flexible ring under the power post as the batteries have, providing flexibility so the two posts don't grind against each other. It may have gotten pushed down and failed to spring back up.

Take a pin and try to lever it back up. NOT TOO HARD, or you might pry it loose, either severing the wiring or breaking the seal and causing a leak. Just lever it up a wee tiny bit.

This has worked for me once or twice when I got the rare "dud."
