I got some LR atties for my eGo-C last week for the first time. Put one in each of two eGos and vaped away for while on both. Both batteries were charged to the point where the button light was white. One of the batteries then quit firing. I took the battery off and it still would not fire - no light on the button. I tried five clicks twice, but nothing changed. I put it on the charger for a minute and it was back in service, acting fine. Back on the same atty and the same thing happened, battery quit. I then put the other battery on this atty and it did the same thing, quit. Put the batteries back on the 'good' atty after the charger and both worked fine. I then replaced the 'bad' atty and all was fine for a few days and then one of the batteries quit again. I put it on the charger to bring it back and have not had the problem again with that atty.

I thought the first atty might have an intermittant short, but then it happened again, but just once that time. I have an old analogue multimeter which shows battery voltage at about 3.7 when charged. I can not check resistance with this MM. Got a digital meter coming next week so I'll be able to check this stuff in the future.

I've had the eGo's for over a month now and never had a problem with SR atties.

Does anyone know what is going on here?
