I recently ordered a kit : 510 Auto Battery Kit with Red LED
I got my kit today and noticed that both the batteries have finicky switches - sometimes they would light up normally, and sometimes they wouldn't light up at all until I gave it a few sharp puffs.
I have tested both atomizers in both batteries, and the result is the same. I discovered that if I plug the holes of the atomizer with my fingers and draw, the batteries work normally. I have a disposable 510 battery and the atomizers work in there (the attys work amazing by the way).
The batteries charge normally, it seems like it's just the switch that's messed up. I've tried it for about an hour and it hasn't improved. Is there something I'm missing or should try to fix them? Is this a known problem? I'm going to recharge them both and try again later... lesson learned, go for the manual batteries...
Oh, and I just noticed that I'm missing a car adapter from my order, I got a 24mg bottle of Marlboro instead, but this isn't the place to solve that...
EDIT: Oh wait, on the order slip it says BO (assume it means backordered) so I think you meant to split up the shipments.
EDIT 2: After charging a second time, the batteries seem to be the same. One of them I can't get any consistent draw at all. The other, I can temporarily "fix" by doing a very sharp primer puff - I think this dislodges the switch or something. It goes back to the way it was quickly though.
