Thank you for your great informations.
I was afraid it might get short circuit lol
In the manual, it says the wattage output options. Can’t recall off the top of my head what they are. But whatever they are, you can run that tank on other mods at/around the same watts. It’ll depend also in what coil you use. I think the come 1 and 1.6 ohms.

I own 2 Flint Kits (as well as other geekvape mods), and I enjoy using them.
However, one of my Flints now wont charge beyond the blue LED. I left it for a really long time (overnight) but in the morning it's still flashing blue.
With the other Flint I have no issues, it charges just fine. Any idea what's going on here?

Internal batteries will do this when they start to die. As with any rechargeable battery, they will only cycle so many times before they wear out. Some may last longer than others, but they all die someday.

The process might be sped up by using the wrong charger or power source too.

Well, I bought them only a couple of months back, I think it was august. And I haven't been using them all the time.
I understand that cells have a lifespan, but I don't expect them to die on me after such a short period of time/cycles. To be honest, I have had them in my posession (new) for less then 100 days and I sure didn't recharge them each day. One may expect *at the very least* a 100 time charge cycle, no?
Besides, I assume it has an internal circuit to avoid being charged at the wrong current. Not that I did anything weird...

How did you charge it? Through a pc or similar device? The cord it came with or just one that fit? There are some batteries that need a certain charger. Some seem to do okay with whatever you have on hand. I’m charging mine with a wall wort and the cord they came with.

And regardless really, some just don’t last very long. Who knows how old it was or how it had been stored (heat?) or if it was stored too charged or undercharged before you got it.

I mean I understand, and I too would expect to get more than a couple months, but this is not unheard of.

I use several different charging setups. Be it via my laptop/usb and the provided cable or a phonecharger with a different cable. Regardless I expect a commercial product to be able to cope with different powersources.
Will accept that this one probably already failed on me. Not the best experience I've had so far :unsure:

Fortunately my Aegis' still go strong!
