Have I toasted my SD Keryring?

[Pablito]

Quick question that I would like some opinion on folks

I have a 5 day ols SG keyring. Now, I know it is a little device and won't give me maximum vape, but it's a very useful little thing and I find offers sufficient toke and flavor from time to time.

I have refilled it twice, liquid and charge, and upon going for a third round the UDB charger did nothing but glow green when I plugged it in together with the battery. Tried another charger (I have 2 keyrings), and the same thing.

I don't recall overfilling a carto, but it could well have happened.

Read another thread mentioning that these devices are easy to fry.....do you think I have done that? Or could there be another porblem I could fix?

Thanks again to you all!

I'm fairly new to vaping - just started this year. Can you tell me what an SG keyring is?

I would try pulling up the center pin may be a simple case of not makeing contact with charger carto's etc. If your not sure what I mean there is a contact on the battery at the bottom where you screw it into the charger its kind of a small round piece simply use a mini flathead screwdriver or similar and pry it up a bit.

I have a SDK too. Was very careful with it and it worked fine back in carto days. It has been in a tin since and in immaculate condition.

However, I charged it yesterday - went green - screwed in a working atty - and nothing.

I've heard they die rather quickly, but their cost is low - but still no excuse. Sad thing is, the battery is fine it's just the auto switch that breaks easily....

Hey there.....its a small ( I guesstimate about 7-8 cms including cartomizer) mod with an built in automatic battery that is real handy for carrying around for an amergency vape. The market it is a keyring accessory and include a small strap for attaching...although I take mine off and keep it in my case. I find it a great little device if you accept its' limitations

They would be great little devices if they worked I'm wondering if condensation or even sucking too hard causes them to break?

Size wise, tiny - much smaller than a 14500 battery.

Thanks Northernshrink, I'll give that a go

And Maff, I know they are cheap, but still it's really not acceptable to break after only 2 uses, don't you think?

Let me know how you make out its normal on a lot of devices for the pin to get pushed down its a simple fix.

My post probably didn't get the point across Pablito... just because they're "cheap" (they're not that cheap) doesn't mean quickly forming faults and breaking should be acceptable.

If there was a manual SDK - be so much better. Might get an ego connector to replace the auto switch on mine (the battery itself is fine).

 

[Maff]

it's got nothing to do with the pin on mine - I checked.

Well, it seems to have worked for me.....or at least it is red and charging now, so fingers crossed it will go all the way.

Thanks much Northernshrink, appreciate it much
