I have the vaporbeast twists also and they are good. They are knockoffs but I like the one I got there better than my joye twist, on the joye my button sticks. Here is another one to look at-has ce4 type stardusts but you could always get vivi novas too. The ce5 is better I think because of the replaceable heads but I am partial to the mega novas. http://www.vaporbeast.com/product_p/sk36.htm?Click=391
 
HI
First, for $3 you can send those back to myfeedomsmoke and get new ones that work...hopefully. I now believe those are not Vision.
Second, reading your last post about your battery, you can short-out the battery by doing what you describe. I really would not mess with the center pin with a paperclip or anything. That advice is bad.

When we first got them the clearomizers (the good batch) wouldn't "touch the post" on the battery it was myfreedomsmokes.com's customer service who told us to use a paperclip to adjust the post in the first place lol.
We've sent a request for "exchange" on the battery.

With the clearomizers we ordered second we got the 5 pack that leaked right? we chalked it up to a "bad batch" so ON our 3rd order when we ordered them and after talking to customer service we said PLEASE don't send us more leaky ones if they are the same just call or message us and we'll cancel the order, THEY STILL sent us another 5 pack of the crappy leaking ones. so i refuse to pay to ship them back just to get more leaky ones since he said "these are what we carry now, this is what the manufacturer is sending us".

We chalk them up to a loss and plan to get something better/different, hints why we are searching for a new vender :) Thanks though for the advice!

Kristy,
I would go with the vapor room.net
They carry the real joye twists and are only 25.00, I think. They also carry the Vision 2.0 clearos. They are great and I have never had one leak. They also are like the vivi Novas, made by the same company and you can buy and replace the heads. Saves us tons of money and frustration.
New customers get free 15 mils of juice and I personally love their dragonfruit.
Josh & Jess always answers your questions quickly too and shipping times are awesome.
Tell them I sent you if you decide to buy with them. They will send me some juice too, for referring you.
They have a coupon code for 10%off too, if it is still valid. Code is thankyou.

We can recommend vendors all night long, but you are not guaranteed anything! This is the joy of dealing with China products, some are great, some are junk, and it will vary batch to batch, such is the life of e-cigs right now! The vendor's can't open and test every product they get in before they ship it. Watch any of the vendor forums, the bigger they are the more complaints they get about how this or that is junk and they want it taken care of now! How they resolve these is all we can go off of.
You buy a camera for your friend for Christmas, it doesn't work, is this your fault? Nope! Is it the stores fault? Nope, the manufacture dropped the ball and let it slip through the cracks, then the store is left holding the bag. I'm not saying it's right, but it is what it is and all the vendors can do is try and make it right with you as best then can!
I've dealt with My Freedom Smokes and had great luck. I've dealt with Vapor 4 Life and had great luck! Ikkenvape, Altsmoke also great luck with them. When I have had problems they always tried to take care of it as quickly and fairly as they could.
As for pulling up the center pin, this is a pretty common fix for problems with these batteries. As long as you don't hit the fire button while you are prying on it there's not much risk involved.

Well, thank you for mentioning that ...''DON'T HIT THE FIRE BUTTON".....problem is, everybody is giving this "advice" , videos put on youtube, and nobody even mentions ....."DON'T HIT THE FIRE BUTTON".
But, that said, how can that be anything but a temporary "fix".
''NOT MUCH RISK''.....Well, someone posted losing 4 batteries by this "fix".
Batteries cost 20-30 dollars, devices cost 5, wouldn't it be better to look at the possibility of adjusting the center post of .....in this case, the 1.6ml clearomizer.

Again, this is, and has been, a common fix, for a long time, for these batteries. As this was recommended by the CSR from the vendor it was purchased from, it seems they are taking ownership of any problems that may happen from this action. If it fails to work, send it back to them and it's their baby. Easy enough.
I don't see any reason to be nasty about it.

As i said, someone posted that they LOST, RUINED, 4 BATTERIES by this "fix".
Nobody is being nasty. Why do you think that?
Did you read the other posts by op?
From what i read the battery , could be wrong, was shorted by "fix".
After reading "Battery Issues", I don't find that to be "a common fix". In fact, many advise against it.

we recently had 1 of our ego-c twist start blinking randomly and won't work anymore

I only purchase genuine Joyetech egos. There is a warranty from joyetech, so that can be passed on from the vendor.

Few vendors are going to give warranty on atomizers, cartos, clearos, etc.

Most of the verified vendors on ECF are pretty safe, read thru all the positive and negative reviews.
