Can a USB Pass-through be revived?

[Wolf]

The led is still receiving power but not the atty. Any suggetions to revive would be appreciated as dh has disabled 4 pass-throughs. The working 2 power up and the atomizer heats. The diabled ones light up when plugged in but refused to light up or heat the atty when drawn on. I tried a light steaming on the connection end only. It worked on one for a couple of draws, but that's all.

What model is it for?

DSE-801. I'm guessing the auto switch is stuck, but haven't a clue what to do to fix it.

Im having the same issues with my 901 pass throughs. Both have lasted less than 2 weeks. I am using a kensington power pack. I am down to one battery.

Any modders sell 901 pass throughs?

Thanks

heya, easiest way to rebuild a broken usb passthrough or make your own is to get the thread from a broken battery, gut the insides just weld a positive and negative to a usb wire. Splice the wires about 10 inches down wire in a switch and whoola instand usb passthrough.. Might burn ur atomisers tho....

I built my own and it works much better than the one I purchased

shinigami..easy for you to say I do appreciate the help tho.

Blackopz..where in Wisconsin are you? Would you be willing to make and sell me a pass through? Im down to one battery.

shinigami - I'm working on taking off the threaded piece. Not as easy as it sounds. Will then see if I can manage the repair/rebuild. I figure it's already broke, can't make it any worse. May end up with a nice manual mod for a 801 USB pass-through. Who knows.

how hard is that to do?

I suggest a manual switch usb passthru. puresmoker.com has them for the 901 and 801 but they are preorder (won't ship for a few more weeks). They are CLOSED hole (no hole in the "battery" part cause they are turned on by a push button switch so NO chance of leakage or sticking switches plus much better vapor!

I rigged up a 901 pushbutton passthru yesterday when I got tired of lackluster battery performance, it works amazingly well. PM me if you want one made for you and what kind of dimensions/layout you'd prefer.

Heres mine:
