65 mm battery toast?

[octa]

what are the symptoms when a battery dies for good? I've had this 65 mm auto around 4-5 months I'm guessing. have used it a good bit. when I inhale, it lights up like it should, but nothing happens otherwise. no vape, no activity within carto. I try to charge it, but the tip doesn't light up like it usually does when charging. so it won't charge basically. is this the end of the line for this battery?

& yep, I've tried gently rocking the battery up, so it will contact carto/charger.

Sounds like that Battery has gone to the Great Charger in the Sky.

Let's have a Moment of Silence...

I'd order a New or Better One.

Did you try cleaning thebattery post with a little alcohol?

yep, cleaned it up. it's weird that it lights up when I inhale, even flashes after about 5 seconds like it should. .

There is one thing you can do. But it is a Last Resort.

And that is to Soak - Shake - Soak the Battery in 91% Isopropyl Alcohol and then let it Dry Out in a Warm place for 2 or 3 Days.

It can Sometimes revive an Auto Battery but should Only be done if you are going to Toss it Anyway.

thanks, I may try that zoiDman. looks like I've had it since late July, so I think it should have more life left. it was one of my 5 batteries, so it wasn't flying solo. it did have quite a kick to it though, seemed to hit stronger than my other batteries, except X2 maybe. live fast, die young lil battery.

Sure thing.

Let us know how things work out.
