Aspire breeze malfunction

[Kassian]

Hello:
New to the forum and have a few questions about the aspire breeze.
I’m having problems with it, the unit keeps blinking and auto firing.
It seems like a problem with the button but not 100% sure.
Has anyone every experience this?
Can I fix it?

I found the following in the manual online Aspire Breeze User Manual

"Short Circuit Protection: When the Breeze detects a short, it will stop firing, and the LED light will flash blue and orange 2 or 3 times depending on where the short has occurred. • Low Voltage Protection: When the battery level drops below 3.2V, the Breeze will not function and the LED light will flash orange 15 times to remind you to charge your Breeze."

You either have a short circuit, or your device is defective. There may be a short or defect in the button since it seems to be firing on its own, but I don't know how you can fix it yourself. In fact, I would recommend that you not try if you are not experienced in repairing electronic parts and circuits.

Sounds to me like you need a new device. Always a good idea to have a second setup available just in case one of them bites the dust.

Are you sure it is Auto Firing or are you assuming it is firing? Has it fried a coil?

 

[stols001]

Was it working at one point, and then this happened? Or was it like that out of the gate? Because it does sound like it could be a mechanical malfunction in which case warrantying it would be helpful. But it's possible that it's user error as well.... If you have a decent vape shop near you it might be worthwhile to take it in and see if they can help.... If not, then you definitely have your answer.

Best of luck, I hope you are able to get it resolved one way or another...

Check the coil.

Yeah it’s auto firing when I leave it on the counter, I can hear it bubbling.

Yeah I’ve had it for 3 months now and was working fine till the other day.
I dropped it in the snow bank and may have gotten a little wet but wasn’t bad, and was working fine after.
Not sure if that wrecked it.
How temperamental are they to water?

Yeah it’s firing and gets hot when it dose, I removed the coil and it still flashes

 

[SteveS45]

Yeah sounds like it is auto firing. Does it have a button to fire or is it operated by the draw?

Electronics and water usually do not mix well. I would take the batteries out and try putting the mod in a zip lock bag with some rice in it to absorb the moisture. Leave it in the bag for a day or two. From my time selling cell phones I have seen people resurrect water damaged ones for a short time with that method. It's kind of a last ditch effort though and I will say that even if it works eventually the parts that got wet will usually start corroding and acting up. Most likely you will wind up having to get a new mod.
If it's water damaged that voids any warranty I have ever seen.

Welcome and glad you joined.
Could try some 80 Fdeg dry heat for an hour or two until you know it's dry. If still a problem, I would start looking for a replacement.

 

[stols001]

It's entirely possible dropping it caused this. I agree with the suggestions of trying to dry it out, but if it continues you will need to replace or repair it most likely. Good luck.

I think I would try to warranty that one. An autofire isn't funny. Welcome to the board.

Hello, people. I'd like to get an Aspire Breeze for using it when going out. I currently have an egrip 2 that I use around the house but not really comfortable taking it with me when I'm gone out (too heavy). The thing is that I chainvape a lot and I'm not sure if the coils on the Breeze would handle that? Not a big fan of 0.6 so what's everyone's opinion about the 1.2 ones? My choice would be either Breeze / icare 2 but not a fan of eleaf - muted flavor / the dolphin - but joyetech has super ....ty coils (i have a tank on my egrip 2 mod). Thanks for the replies guys.

If you chain vape, you’ll get maybe 2- 3 hours on the battery. Prob have to refill the tank too.

That's no problem. My only problem would be how much would the coils last? 3 days is too much when chainvaped? Thanks for the reply.

 

[redeuce]

The coils are stellar. They last.

So the breeze is a total game changer it I functionally perfect for its size. With that being said. The device sells for around $20 on average depending on where you buy it. I personally have for at all times. I recently just had one short out on me and I’m looking into the return process. However there’s a $10 processing fee and You are required to pay for shipping both ways. My maths not the best but $10 plus $10 in shipping equals easier to purchase the breeze of th next. I have a buddy who owns six stores in the Midwest he told me he would take a look at it and if it truly looks like a manufactures this The fact that he will send it back and waive my fee. I don’t know if you’re in tight with your Vape guy or even if you’re in tight with any Vape guys or gals for that matter. Either way one of the best things about the breeze is that it is affordable and functional and if you drop it and lose it you’re not out $150 mod. Just my thoughts it seems easier to just purchase another one and as I saw someone already quoted have more than one on hand even if you aren’t using it. The other thing I would suggest just buying extra chimneys and extra O-rings
