Is it me or this darned screwdriver?

Just got my new screwdriver in a few hours ago. Immediately plugged the batt in to charge and finally got a green light. Filled the thing exactly as in the how-to video on TW website, after 4 puffs, no vape, no sound from the atty. Switched attys since there were two in the box, same thing: after 4 good vapes (well at least vapor producing, getting more vapor from an auto-batt 510), no vape, no sound from the atty.

Switched attys since there were two in the box, same thing: after 4 good vapes (well at least vapor producing, getting more vapor from an auto-batt 510), no vape, no sound from the atty.

Pull the attys and take a multimeter (voltage meter), put it on Ohms and check the pos and neg terminal on the atty. If you have resistance as follows:

901 : 3.3 ohms
801 : 3.8 ohms
510 : 2.1 ohms

Then your attys are not dead, try reseating them and try again. Also check the voltage from the SD and see if you get voltage when you push the switch. Cycle the switch 5-6 times and see if there is voltage every time.

If you get voltage everytime from the SD and the multimeter (voltage meter) reads no ohms resistance then the SD is fine and the attys are dead.

Hope this helps
