I'm probably not the first to run into this problem, so any links to relevant threads would be much appreciated.
I was recently overseas in the Philippines when one of my eGo batteries went kaput on me (although I later fixed it with by resoldering a faulty wire back to the circuit). This prompted me to head to the mall and see if ecigs were available in Cebu City. Not surprisingly, they were. I bought a VV ego battery that carried the brand name "Brahman". It had a charge on it and I got a half day's use before it died.
Unfortunately, I screwed it onto multiple different chargers and got nothing.... no flash from the battery, and no LED change on any of the chargers. I eyeballed the threads and it appear as though this battery has deeper threads, so I'm assuming that the charger is not able to make contact with the base of the battery. Aaaaaaaaand I'm no longer in the Philippines. I'm a little behind on different types/generations of eGo, so this might be solvable with a different type of charger.
Can anyone shed some insight onto whether or not I need a different eGo charger, or if there's an adapter I can pick up that has extended threads on the male end of the connection? Either would satisfy me -- I just wanna use the thing and have it not be a waste.
