eleaf istick 50w charging

[djkringe]

Hi. My istick 50w suddenly will not charge on car charger. Tried different cables to no avail. I can ease the charger into slot and it will start to charge but if it goes all the way in it turns the light on my car charger off. I have to remove and reinsert car charger for it to come back on. Also on wall charger some work and some dont. Any ideas?

Have you tried a different cable?

 

[djkringe]

Yes. Ten at least..

Given the recent incidents, I wouldn't risk car charging...

Oh. I really quit messing with and just use wall chargers but it is certainly a curious issue.

Doesn't sound like the wall chargers are doing any better either!

 

[djkringe]

Lol...I've got one or two that I don't have issues with. They all work for phones though. It's just odd.

Your charger, where it plugs into your car, is shorting out.

I get that. But why only with the istick and nothing else? The istick is causing the short.

With the recent problems with the iStick 50W, I think it is better to not charge it in your car. You should be there when it charges and put it on something fireproof !
