Currently have my eVic for 3 weeks until yesterday when I woke up i saw my eVic's screen saying CHARGING and its not even attached to my USB/Charger. It says charging when in standby/sleep/off I dont know how to fix the problem. Also if my battery goes down to 45% it wont fire anymore which annoyed me a lot yesterday and I started to charge it came to around 50% of battery and it fired. Tried reseting it already but still nothing. Anyone have this problem? Can someone help me with this? Gladly Appreciate it Thanks

I have a similar quirk in mine. I use 18350 batteries and sometimes near the end of the battery charge the mod will say charging and even fire the atty by itself requiring me to remove the battery to stop it firing. A fresh battery fixes mine right up. So it may be that the battery is going bad, and the charge remaining meter is no longer calibrated for the lower mAh of the diminished battery.

Make sure you have the latest firmware, and then go in and update the battery setting through custom, and then make sure you are going in and setting the Temp warning for something higher than whatever it is currently set too, I have mine set to 110, you have to do it through the MVR setting for the temp otherwise it is an impossible number to get to for some reason

I know i bought vapage disposable e cigs from 7-11 and they suck so bad :l

There was also a recall on some control heads that were made during a certain time frame. You can find out by the serial number. Mine for some reason just shuts itself off when it gets around 10%. I can turn it back on still but as soon as i go to fire it it will shut itself off again.
eVic Control Head Recall Notice
check your serial number against the numbers they have posted. to make sure you don't have a bad control head.

And btw, disposables are expensive save 24$ and buy an ego twist to use as a backup while your main is charging. or extra batteries.

Hi I already checked my serial was 21219**** so it's not included in the recall. Didnt knew ego twist was that cheap. Should get one Thanks!

Hey no problem bud, just trying to help a fella out, i have been there at one point in time. If i can suggest a very good supplier it would be vaporalley.com Rick does a great job treating his customers right. Alot of his stuff is out of stock cause of the chinese new year. But he has quality gear. Vape on bro.
