510 CE2 R5 and Automatic Battery Issue

[nu2this]

I received my ce2 (2.4 ohms) yesterday and found that they do not work with my 510 automatic battery. The battery lights on the draw, but no liquid seems to burn so there is no vapor. Has anyone else found that they can't use their autos with the ce2s or is it my battery? It is fully charged and works great with LR cartos.

Thanks in advance and thanks for all the great info on vaping.

First off, you shouldn't be using low resistance with your little batteries....your batts won't last long before you'll have to replace them 2.4ohm is considered LR for your batteries. If you like LR, you need to use an eGo, Riva, KGO, or buy a mod to safely and effectively use LR.

Thanks Hairball. The 510 is a mega if that makes any difference in what resistance I can safely use. I do know the dealer doesn't warrant auto 510s when used with low resistance attys but does with the low resistance cartos. Maybe the ce2s are closer to atty technology than they are to cartos?

Should work, does the coil even light up? Should get a red glow when the button is pressed, if not, try raising the ce2 center post a little.

When you put the CE2 on your battery, is there a Small Gap between the CE2 and the Battery Conector?

Sounds like the CE2 Center Post is not making contact with the Battery Center Post.

BTW - What is an R5 CE2 and where did you get them?

I can't see the coil because this one has a metal tube, not clear. My guess is that it is not because I don't hear the liquid turning to vapor like I do when using it with the manual battery.

That was it. It looked like it should be making contact but once I pulled the connector out a bit farther it started working. Thanks!

I bought them here:

If you can't see that little Gap, most of the time it is a tip off that the center posts of the Battery/Carto isn't making contact.

Good to hear that you are back in business.
