Hi guys i am in a tight spot and need a little help. i am currently rotating between my tube mod that takes 18350 and a madvapes 5v box. i had only one set of 18350 and one set of 14500... inbetween mods and didnt have enough cash to buy the extra batts. figured i could just switch till finacial aid came in. now my 5v box mod has stopped working all togthere.
problems started when it would only fire 3-4 secs before it would just cut off. i remedied this by switch back to off and then to on and it would work fine for a few hours. this got more frequent until right now when it completely died.
i opened a ticket but am pretty sure they will want me to send it back. is thier anyway i can fix this or does anybody have an extra pair of 18350 batts they could trade me? i got some juices. any help is appreciated becuase the 1200mah 18350's take forever to charge on my trustfire charger.
thanks

If you have a meter you could track down possible where the trouble is at. Sounds like it may be a switch but it is hard to say from what you have supplied. Make sure its not the atty, I am sure you already done that but just checking. Is this a mod box?

yeah its the madvapes box mod. 5v. i need to pick a meter up. but i checked the batts on another mod and they fire so the pcb wasnt flipped. the atomizer fired on another mod perfectly same batts and all. so i figure its either the switch or the on off selector. the thing that worrys me is sometimes it gets stuck. but the back of the switch looks slightly metled where they solder the connection.
