Is it an automatic? Did you get juice in the battery? You might try flicking it to get juice out. Also the charger often gets neglected and should be cleaned. It can cause batteries to not charge properly.

it was working just fine before i put it on the charger and the light came on saying it was charging then it went off around the same amount of time it normally takes to charge so i took it off and tried to use it and nothing is happening ... and yes its automatic

Liberty Flights gives a 20% discount at check out
goodphropets often have great prices on kits
I'm sure someone will chime in with a great eGo sale, yes IMHO eGos are great and well priced.

Need we say more? lol Good one Beans =) I have a RIVA from them and I love it. My brother in law has an ego from them and has bought prolly 4 other ecigs from other vendors and hasn't touched em' since he got his ego. Great buy for sure. Try out there drip tips too. Cheap and easy to use. Cartridges get kinda old. You can also try cartomizers but I couldn't recommend them since I've never tried em personally. I started with cartridges, went to dripping and never looked back. The flavor, Throat Hit, and vapor production is insane when you drip IMO!

Well I will recommend Boge 2.0 ohm cartomizers. They are all I use on my PV's
The eGos are all great what you'll be looking at is 600-900-1100 batts. It depends on what your comfortable using. For each 100 mah rating you will get an hour of use out of it. So an 1100 mha is longer but will last you most of the day.
I use the stand by thinking....Bigger is Better when it comes to batts.

The cartridges are cartos. Cartos are empty cartridges. You just drop juice into the filler "Polyfill" and vape away. Pre-filled carts are way too expensive to be buying. Buy a bottle of good juice, drip into the cartidges if that's what you prefer and you'll be good to go.

If you get a drip tip for like $2.00 from them it's so much easier then cartridges. You just snap the drip tip onto the atomizer, drip about 3 drops onto the atomizer before you put the drip tip on or down through the drip tip. Give two shar blows into the drip tip so you don't get any juice on your lips or in your mouth and your set. Keep your atomizer wet every 6-10 draws or depending on how much you vape and you'll never have to worry about refilling cartridges again!

It's really best to fill your own. Much cheaper in the long run. Filling cartomizers is very simple. Check YouTube for the condom filling method.

When I first came to ECF, someone recommended a Riva 510 starter kit from liberty-flights, and I've been very happy with it. It came with 2 batteries, 2 cones, 5 cartos, a charger and a carrying case for less than $35.

I think the best deal on Boge cartos is from Crystal Clear Vaping. Check out their 15 for $20 deal (comes with a syringe and 2 drip tips with free shipping). Linky

ETA: Cartos have a learning curve, but they are worth it IMHO. There are lots of threads here discussing ways to fill them and make them work right. If you decide to use them, make sure you stick with liquids that are less than 30% VG.

Cartridges are 'carts'
Cartomizers are 'Cartos' with the atomizer/cartidge combined. Not many people use cartridges anymore. The carto/cartomizer has replaced them. They're easy peasy. Fill and vape.

You can always buy one 1100mah battery and a charger..OR even better 1100mah PT battery .till you can afford more. Switch it up with your 1 working batt.

If you find you want a small ecig for some situations, a manual Joye 510 is totally sealed on the threaded end and can share any standard resistance (2.5 ohm and up) 510 cartos and 510 attys with the Ego. It cannot use the Ego's charger nor low resistance attys and cartos (either could damage it)

And I recommend Boge cartomizers for your favorite thinner juices, the most popular cartos for 510 threaded devices. If you have not used cartomizers before, I recommend learning on the standard resistance (2.8-3.2 ohm) and then if you want you could switch to the hotter 2.0 ohm ones (which also use battery charge faster)
