End cap light on automatic X2...not lighting???

[fourthrok]

Anyone else noticing this? I have 8 Volt X2 batteries and they all work fine. Hubby has 3 Volt X2s. We have been noticing that some of them don't light up on the "ash end" when vaping like they are supposed to. Yes, we know there is an endcap on there. But it used to be that you could take the end cap off and use it like a mirror to see if the end was blinking or lighting up steady. 4 of my 8 batteries don't do that. 4 do. Hubby's rainbow one doesn't light up when vaping either...but his black one and silver one do light up. One of mine I just got in the mail a couple of days ago brand new. It doesn't light up except when charging. All are automatic.

Anyone else?? What's up with that? Imagine? Anyone? Like I said, the batteries all work fine. Just curious if it's anything we should be concerned about. Thanks!

Wow, if the LED doesn't light up except when its charging, you have no way to tell if the battery is firing if you have a problem with a carto. That's something I'd be concerned about. I'd call CS about the batteries that are still under warranty.

I think there are two separate LEDs, because (on mine) it will be blue for charging and red for vaping. Maybe the vaping one is just loose. I doubt it is anything to worry about, more there for show than anything. But they can always be returned/exchanged within the warranty period if you want.

Yeah..pretty sure they are two different LEDs. The light goes on when charging for all of them. The only way we know when some of them need charging is when the battery starts vaping really weak...or barely at all. It's doable. And at least they work. Might call CS about it Monday, though.

I have exactly the same problem with two (out of 7) of my automatic 650 X2's, bought recently. Mine are green, but obviously color is not an issue. I'm reluctant to exchange, because Australia Post doesn't accept lithium batteries and I would have to lie in the customs declaration. Sometimes I notice a weak red light when drawing, but mostly not. Let us know what CS says.

 

[fourthrok]

Will do. If they say it's not a problem and won't "hurt" the battery, I'm not going to worry about it.

The light is either dim or lost its connection it is nothing to worry about

I have 4 that all have various level of light. One is very very dim. Another acts as a spotlight.

I thought I was the only one that checked the end cap as a mirror.

LOL!!!! Hubby and I both do the endcap-as-mirror thing. It's cool with those ones that won't light up, though. I have been using the X2s so long now I can "sense" when the battery is getting weak, and I'll just put it on the charger. Heck...we thought those end caps were so shiny because they were SUPPOSED to be used as little mirrors!! (J/K!!!)

I just for my x2 900mah manual and the light comes on when charging but not when vaping when cap is off, is something wrong, should I need to return it?

 

[cindycated]

It doesn't come on at all in manual batts, except when charging. The button should be lighting up instead though, when pressed, and blinks when the batt needs charging.

Ok thanks for the info
