Flooded battery

[CVinecombe]

So I refilled my cart (Revolver Infinity Ion starter kit), and I forgot to pull my filler back up to the top afterwards, went to vape, and after two drags the battery turned off and I can't get it to turn back on. I've blown all the excess liquid out of the atty and tried to pull as much as I can out of the battery, and I now have it sitting in a bag of rice hoping it will pull any more liquid out of the battery. Is there any other fix to get liquid out of the battery? Or did I completely break it?

Sucked as much liquid out as I could and left it sitting in a bag of rice for about an hour and it's good as new! Thought the info might help for those stuck in a similar situation.

Yay for you! Close call. We live and learn, don't we. The bag of rice is a good idea...and thanks for sharing. Welcome to ECF and good luck.

CVinecombe, i fell your pain man.. I have volcano and blu batteries and i use them all, so i need them all to work. here's my problem: my blu battery seems to have died, probly because i was using a drip tip, causing the battery to flood and its not show any signs of life :-( So, like CVinecombe, i need to know how to fix it, or if it's even possible. Should i send it back to BLU? Any info would be great.

Maybe try blowing it out with an air compressor or canned air?

Drip tip = use a sealed battery and a sealed passthru.

WOW. I somehow missed that CVinecombe found a way to fix his battery, so my post is kinda pointless. Still, does anyone have any suggestions regarding this sort of stuff, ( flooded batteries, Dripping with or without a drip tip and not flooding the batt, or pretty much anything you think i should know) Would really appreciate any info!

When I first began vaping I had the same problem. I switched from auto to manual batteries and have not had the same problem.

Just the usual. Manual (sealed) batteries.

Or, don't make any mistakes.

Sorry, but autos have that hole that needs to be there to work as an auto, so they are prone to flooding. Nature of the beast and all that rot.
