Ce5 my bases keep going bad

[DangBoston]

I have ce5 with wick on top. I have dropped it a couple time, when it hits a hard surface it will not work. I thought the coils were breaking, so I would screw in a new wick, but it doesn't work unless I replace the whole base. What is breaking in the base ? can I fix them ? It has happened 3 times now. I was worried the battery would break, but the only thing that fixes it ,is replacing the base.

I have no idea what mod that is. But if I were you I would try a different mod since you been threw this multiple times already with this 1.

Don't waste your time with ce5. I used them for quite a while and If you are into vaping or will likely continue upgrade or at least use a site like fast tech to buy them. I spent a fortune on them and the heads at retail stores and that money could buy you something a bit nice. Heard natilus is good too. good luck

I believe the CE4 has the wicks on top and the CE5 is a bottom feeder. Sounds like your coil is breaking on you. There is YouTube video's on rebuilding the coils in them.

Thanks for the reply's. ce4 is not rebiuldalbe, ce5 is both have top and bottom wicks. ( at least that's what the guys in china told me) The coils are not braking , when I change the base the old wick and coil works on the new base.

The China guys are right I think... Originally CE4s were not rebuildable as they were disposables. (Coilhead not replaceable)
Likely the inner pin gets pushed in if you drop it and does not connect with the coilhead anymore. You can try and see if you can tap it back from the bottom or something.
Otherwise I have to agree with advice above. Get something better than the CEx tanks when budget allows.
