Ego one Mega, 40 flash, help!

[Aaron981023]

I bought an Ego one mega, i didn't unpack it until after the warranty had expired (stupid i know) but basically everytime i fire it the device flashes 40 times and locks until i plug the charger into it, it'll then let me drag 1 maybe two clouds if i'm lucky, then lock again, my first 1.0 ohm coil worked perfect, but after i tried the temp control coils (NI and TI) (using temp control settings on both) this is where the device started this fault, on these two coils, so i order a pack of 5 1.0ohm coils and vaped under W mode again, however i am still having the 40 flash lock problem, any advice? Really missing my vape

From your user manual.

Low voltage protection: When the battery voltage is less than 3.3V, the button light flashes for 40 times and the devise powers off.

Are you fully charging the battery before trying to use it?

I have read this and i don't really understand it? Yes the battery is fully charged

Ego one vt & vc are temp control, the ego one mega is not.
The low resistance they support for temp control is .2Ω, what is the resistance you're trying to fire?
Sounds like whatever you're trying to fire is below the minimum Ω.
If it is below .2Ω it will not fire consistently if at all & will flash a warning.

Not wishing to put a downer on this, you cannot leave Lithium batteries uncharged for extended periods. If you are 'out of warranty' (3 months?) it is possible that battery is dead.
I cannot speak for an eGo Mega inbuilt battery, but I had this with some Sony 18650 batteries. Bought them, left them unused, dead.
However, on the bright side, I don't actually think this it that likely.
Can the Mega support Ni and Ti? I didn't think it could.

Is yours an eGo ONE VT?

Yes an Ego one VT

From page 8 of your user manual.

When the battery is fully charged (and the tank is attached) does the battery light stay lit when you press the fire button? This would indicate the battery is 60%-100% charged.

Does your battery indicate this or do the lights indicate something else?

Slightly off topic, but how long does it take for a battery to sit idle before it dies completely? I have an old ego one mega that the button broke the day after the warranty expired and it's ben sitting in my drawer blinking nonstop for the last 6? Months
