3 flashes means short circuit or too low of resistance, sometimes it is caused by over tightening a delivery device smashing down the center pin.

Try unscrewing the topper/cartridge about 1/8th of a turn at a time, if that doesn't work, gently pry up the center pin with a toothpick or something small.

Hi and welcome.

"If the LED button starts to flash 3 or 4 times when you press it to vape (assuming your battery is charged) this indicates that the atomizer/tank is not connected properly or that the coil within is not working.

Where did you get the kit?
Ego batteries are "universal", but the topper/atomizer may be of many different types.
Can you tell us a bit about the system you are using?


Cheers
I

Very gently wiggle and pry up the center pin on the ego-t using a pin or tiny screw driver. These are notorious for getting smashed down and not making contact with the topper. You likely just need to move it a fraction of an inch. On some atomizers, you can extend the center pin on those as well, but try the battery first. That usually works quickly to solve the not connecting problem.

Hi, and welcome to ECF. You are getting good advice, so I will just note that if you continue to have problems, you can take it in to the place you bought it (if local) or even another Brick and Mortar vape store to see if you can get more help with the device.

Is this from right out of the gate, or did it happen slowly over time. It may be your threads are stripped, or the 510 connection on the battery like others have said. Try the solutions above but if all else fails, you can take it in for some real world help, and if it needs warrantying, you can do that also, but I believe some of the above strategies will work well for you.

Welcome to ECF.
