I got mine in July and it has been awesome, until this week. I noticed that I had to push the manual switch several times to get the atomizer to heat and produce vapor. After several days of this and replacing batteries more frequently, my Prodigy refused to work completely!!! I tried replacing the cartomizer and put in new battery, nothing!!!

OK, I don't mind buying a new part, but not sure which. I have a 901 Prodigy. Can someone help me figure out which one I need?

Thank you

Have you tried cleaning and lubricating the threads on the adapter and end cap. Mine shut down a month ago and I was all set to contact Casy. Since I had a spare Prodigy I decided to see if it was the switch by changing them out. Still didn't work, so I started changing all the other parts. Then it started working again. Turns out it was just a bit of corrosion on the threads giving me a bad ground.

I had quite a few problems with the prodigy just not wanting to worth shortly after I got it. I really couldnt tell you why it stopped working but I just kept playing with it.

Unscrewing everything, replacing the batteries, cleaning the threads, changing atty, shaking it, throwing it against the wall, driving over it.

Eventually it figured out that I was the boss and I haven't had a probem since then.

Sometime my atty's stop working on me and I just slowly twist them and keep pressing the button and listening for vapor and that seems to work.

Also I noticed my charger on one side doesn't like me. Sometime when I put the battery in it doesn't charge. If this is the case put in a battery on one side and make sure the light turns completely red then take it out and put it in the otherside and make sure it does the same. That way you know both the batteries are being charged.
