The Prettiest in NeverNear
K..I hate to be bearer of bad news but...I was sitting at my computer trusty Provari's and MVP's at my side when I noticed a hissing spitting sound.The router for the cable was under the table where the mods sat so I'm thinkin what is up with the router? So I picked it up..Nada nothing..I heard the hiss again and decided to check out my mods...It was an MVP and the tank and carto in the tank was burning hot..I unscrewed it immediately and put the MVP in a pan with a lid in my sink...The lights were going bonkers and I watched it till all the lights went out.It's still in the pot in my sink.I have 6 MVP's one was bad from the get go and I don't use it...This is the 2nd...Be cautious with them.I will be taking the tanks off all of them when I go to bed at night or leave the house...I don't think I trust them anymore. It's a shame because I do like them...Just a heads up to be careful....

I am not going to, I may just write off vaping in general... the eGo I bought to get the wife started in vaping just failed miserably. It was an eGo-T... I got ripped off but I thought it would be cool to get her started. I was wrong, after 5 hours it wasn't fully charged yet... I went to get a drink from the kitchen... ... is that smell... smells electrical... eGo ... snit...got my DVOM and yes.. 0.326 Volts... nope that ain't right, hit the button 5 very faint flashes... well carp.. I just bought a dud.. we will have to see how the dealer handles this, but yes I am one to hold a grunge .... grrrrrrr

Ty for the heads up SP. I think that's one of the reasons for the new buttons. The old style buttons could stick. Did the MVP get hot?

If the MVP didn't get hot and the button wasn't stuck. The carto in the tank night have had a short. I had a similar experience was the tank. I put the MVP on the charger and it reset its self and has been fine. If its still under warnity send it back. If your lucky maybe they'll send you a new MVP2.
