Ego C Atty - Dead in 8 days

[Nubbie]

New to this and I know that some of these atty's will last longer than others, but 8 days seems a little harsh. I took it apart and it didn't seem gunked up or anything. It won't fire at all, the coil looks like it may have popped.

So I'm wondering a couple of things.

1. Normal for them to just die like that? (one min working fine the next not firing at all?)
2. Could this be a result of something I did?
3. How long did you last using the standard tanks and atty's with the Ego C before giving up and going for the VIVI or stardust?

Just a FYI - running 1000mah Joytech Ego -c Kit.


Thanks for any info.

Cheers

Are they LRs or SRs, big difference? LRs do not last as long. Yes 8 days is a little on the premature side, but then again sheet happens.

I'm on a regular eGo-C (no twist) and using stardusts. My attys usually last a couple of months. Used ones washed in hot water every night, dry 24 hours. I have 3-4 tanks I change out on.

I lasted about a 2 months on the original atty/tanks. Didn't have to change out a one. Tanks just got to leaking.
