Infinity Problems

[akingsley9000]

I originally sent my infinity in for repair due to the PCB malfunctioning. I received it back in April 22 but it is still not working properly. 7 out of 10 times when you push the button no voltage is reaching the atty. I have tried different batteries and different attys without it making a difference.

Sometimes the led will come on and there will not be any voltage, some times the led does not come on at all. Other times when the led does come on if you unscrew the atty and then screw it back on with the button still pushed it will work.

Please advise.

Better send it back again. It sounds like your atty center post isn't reaching far enough to make contact, a repeated problem with 510 connectors but the not having the blue light come on when you push the button isn't right.

Yeah I'm planning on it. Just wondering if Mike has any input of suggestions before I do. I'll tell ya though, it really frustrating to have a home made $5 box mod that is more reliable than the Infinity.

I fully understand your frustration aking but in all fairness the Infinity is made up of parts from many different manufacturers and although it's odd those parts do fail even though there new and yes even two times in a row. I know Mike feels as bad about it as you do. If you get a slip going now and get it off to him he can have it back to you in no time. You are right though to wait for the big guy because he has remedies sometimes that are fast. I would shoot him an email though.
Sorry for the frustration and might I add your being an awfully good sport about it. You are indded a good Infinity Infintry Person.

No in understand that. I sent him a PM earlier, but will send him an email to if that easier for him.

I asked her to pull out the center post on her attys to see if that works , NO led may be caused by the batteries not seating fully , tap it in your palm this should help.

Let me know please

Its in my car at the moment but I will try that and let you know if that solves the problem. I have used batteries from both you and another vendor in it. I thought maybe the batteries I had originally gotten the in the kit might have be malfunctioning but I got the same result with both sets. I have tried tapping it in my hand, that does work maybe 4-5 out of 10 times.

Also try tightening the screw in the battery cap that holds the spring in. Work it back and forth then tighten it plus what Mike said about the center post.
