So I attempt to vape a tank I just filled with the last approx. 2.5 ml of my Twilight Zone from Good Life Vapors (one of my favorite flavors). The battery starts blinking at me and won't let me puff. I'm like, "Damn battery must be dead" and automatically try another one, and same result. I tried my VV battery.... same thing.

So it's the tank. I tried other tanks with the batteries and they are fine. Now I know this problem is easily resolved by throwing out the tank and replcing with a new one. This problem isn't common enough that it' costs a lot of money or anything. But I would like to save what little juice I have in there because I like it. Can the tank be save din it's current, ejuice filled state?

I really appreciate everyone's responses.

What kind of tank is it? Possibly need to push the head down a little so that the center pin of the battery can make good contact with it. Also is the connection clean? Sometimes that can make a pretty good difference too.

It's a Halo Triton tank. I only use a Halo Triton Tank and Halo Triton Battery, no mods or anything. When you say "push the head down " (giggity) do you mean physically push down on the top of the coil screwd in (screwed into the tank not the battery I assume)? I did clean the connections with alcohol pads once you mentioned it and left it dry for about 15 minutes (more than enough for alcohol pads) and I got the same result, LED indicator light blinking as if it's an empty battery but it's not.

It's a short in the coil.

try readjusting your coil head. If it's a fresh coil, it might be defective.

I did rescrew it in and out of the tank just a little bit as there is fluid in it. I then blew through it to make sure no fluid would leak into the battery with compressed air. Still, no luck.

If the level of e-liquid is below 1.6, you can simply swap the coil. Otherwise, just pour the tank out into another one.

The issue is that it's full of the last of one of my favorite juices, and it's my last coil. Granted, I ordered both juice and coils before I posted this and expect them sometime this week, but I was hoping for a quick fix. If there isn't one, I shall toss what I have and replace the coil.
