Button on my Maraxus is getting hot?

[CaptainColeslaw]

I have searched the forums and found on thread regarding the issue but I could not find out if the solution resolved the issue. Does anyone know if this will work?

"A good electrolytic grease in the switch and on the Pin as well as a battery spring top can reduce/stop these issues."

your button getting hot is not a good sign - could be a minor short or eventual battery failure

what is the resistance of your coil and what battery are you using (manufacturer, product #, amp rating, mah rating)
also make sure the battery shows no damage or wear

too low of resistance with an inadequate battery will cause a button to heat up - is the battery getting hot also?

is this your first ecig?

I am asking the question for a friend and do not have the exact details of what battery he is using. I found this thread about the issue and was wondering if the electrolytic grease ended up working for the guy. I would try to reply to that thread or send him a message but I don't know how to exactly.

Edit. Apparently I am not allowed to post links yet. If you type "Maraxus button getting hot" into google, the first result is an ECF forum on the issue.

if the button is getting HOT then no it wont help... thats like pouring an ounce of water on a burning tire... there is another problem involved, too many amps are being pulled thru the switch...
