Box Mod short circuited? Juice leaked into it for 1 month

[Ryan CHong]

Hi guys,

Box Mod: Golden Snow Wolf 200W

So I've been away for a business trip for a month and when I came back, the drawer which i kept my box mod was all sticky. I forgot to remove the tank before i left and it leaked into the box mod button. The button when I found it was stuck as the juice had dried and hardened. So I opened it up and used an alcohol swab to clean the button hole. After putting in new batteries and closing it up, it still wouldnt turn on. So i'm assuming its a fused or short circuit. Is anyone capable of repairing a box mod that had been juice damaged? Will tip generously.

Cheers,
Ryan

Try dismantle the mod and clean the circuit board with contact cleaner.

Strip it, clean it as best you can and then place it in a well ventilated dry area. Then the waiting begins.

I havent tried using contact cleaner. But ive already used alcohol swab to clean the area surrounding the circuit board and then used hair dryer to dry it for a good 2hours. Its been more than a week. Still dead. =( Anyone else got any ideas? I dont seem to be able to get a new box mod too .

Alcohol swab not very useful. Since already dead, why not dismantle the circuit board clean with either contact cleaner, or flush with water under the tap, then leave it in air-con room, or camera dry box for a few days.
Do not dry under sun or use hair dryer.

I really liked the colour and this particular snow wolf mod. I'm still trying my best to save it, if not I still want to get the same exact one. Gold snow wolf 200w. But I don't know anyone who sells anymore =(

Damn that sucks. I know what you mean, though. Find a colour or style you like but then the device fries.

If you're really hard up, can get a cheaper alt and harvest the chipset from that to make a repair.

Chuck it and be done with it

I think your mod is probably toast, I'm sorry. You might try vapecrawler, it's a fairly useful website for trying to replace something you like, good luck!
