Hi I bought a Prosmoke Electronic Cigarette kit a little over a month ago. its an m-series with an automatic battery. I also have a PCC for it. Its one of those PCC's that opens like a cigarette holder, not like an analog style pack. my atomizer has been working fine but all of the sudden i couldnt get any vapor out of either batteries no matter what i do.

But the wierd thing is the automatic battery is activated by airflow.... usually when i blow on any of my batteries... they light up. but not once have my batteries lit up once today. atomizer on it or not. nothin.

So im thinking maybe its the PCC? maybe its telling me they are charged and they arent so i have a battery on the regular wall charger. the light is red... so it is not fully charged, its showing that it is actually dead... i hope to god thats the problem.

Anyone else have any ideas?

Over a month ago...

Everything wears out or might break. Atomizers can burn out, especially if run too hot or run dry or not cleaned.

Have you ever cleaned your atomizer? Weekly I swap to a clean dry atty and put the used one in a jar of alcohol and swish it around occasionally, next day I take it out and shake it out and set to dry on paper towels so it will be ready to be swapped in the next weekend (drying could be sped up with a blow dryer). One person recently had a problem similar to yours where cleaning/drying the atty made everything work again (their battery started lighting again etc)

And batteries can get problems, especially batteries with a hole in the middle of the threaded end (juice from atty can get in battery and kill it or gunk up the breath-activated switch so it no longer works). I check my battery's end every time I take it off and use a tissue to make sure it is clean and dry. Even just a coating of dried juice on the end can prevent good contact with the charger.
