Atty problem?

[Zag]

I purchased an e-cig from an online retailer that is out of stock. Yesterday while in 7-11 I seen a kit for $20 exhale02 and being anxious to try it, I bought it.
It worked really well at first. Ran through my first cart and was pretty happy with it. though the carts were lacking in taste I figured I would test out some e-liquids anyway.
Last night, it blinked signaling needing recharge. I recharged it for a few hours and now I get no vapor. I figured even though the usb light went off maybe it did not fully charge. I let it charge overnight and still no vaping.
I have tried multiple carts and nothing.

by the way, I went in to 7-11 and they refused an exchange. they stated they only sell them as a service and do not offer returns or exchanges.
I called exhale02 but no one answers and my call has not been returned yet. I also emailed but have no response at this time.

First, take the atomizer off the battery and the cart off the atty. Hold a tissue over the end of the atty with the thread on it a d blow hard thru the other end of the atty until no liquid comes out of the atty.
Reattach everything and try to vape. If the led on the battery lights up when you inhale but you still get absolutely zero vapor you probably popped the coil in the atty. If you have a simple multimeter you can check to see if there is still continuity in the coil. If you are not able to check continuity, buy another kit and try the atty in that one on the batt you have. If i am correct they are pretty inexpensive.

yep, i got nothing on the continuity. the kits were only $20. just don't know about dropping another $20 if the atty is not going to last a day.
thanks!

The gas station e-cigs are notorious for failure, and lousy flavors.

For less than the cost of two kits, (4 packs of analogs in my area) you can get a reliable kit here:
Electronic Cigarette - Starter Kits - Riva 510

BE SURE to click the 20% off icon on the top left corner.
You would just need some juice to go along with it.

thanks stosh, I will check that out.
I got in contact with the manufacturer and I sent the bad atty back to them. They were very helpful and friendly. I am beginning to think I will be buying a few models and e-liquids to play with. not sure i will be saving dough but at least I will breath easier.

I second that!! I love my Riva -- the only time I put the Riva down is when I reach for my Ego PT -- same idea, just a different battery. I will not be upgrading from here... it really is some of the best quality.. and with months of "money back guarantee" you cannot go wrong. 2 months on the attys -- not sure the Riva batteries .. but the ego pass-thru gives 6 months.

You wont find a better deal. I paid more for my Health-e-cig, Blu, and Joye 510, and love my Riva most out of those. I only love my Ego pass-thru more because it has no automatic cut-off switch.

Don't give up is the main thing!! Anything you buy at a gas station is some form of "disposable" .. usually overpriced and obsolete. You have come to the right place!!! Best of luck to you!
