is my battery charging?

[panteraboy1988]

I just got my cigarette from E-Cigs. the starter pack came with the battery, a usb screw-in adapter and two carts. this is a two piece cigarette.
well i screwed the battery in the usb adapter and plugged it into my computer. the LED never came on. so i tried plugging it into my phone charger (charge rate of 850mAh) LED still didnt come on. the battery works cause i took a drag and the LED lit up and gave off lots of vapor but that LED just dosent come on when i try to charge it. do ALL electronic cigarette light up when you plug them in? what do you guys think? i got the starter kit from ecigsbrand.com if any of you know anything about them...

pantera it might have come from the factory fully charged. my starter kit was. welcome btw

Pantera,

If you have a disposable unit then LED will not light up untill battery is fully charged, form my experience with Q510 disposables.

thanks for the replies! yea it might have been pre-charged cause i took a drag off this thing and i was overwhelmed by all the vapor this thing was giving off.
im sorry if im asking dumb questions guys, two weeks ago i didnt even know what an e-cig was lol.
and also i have a question about the different models of these things. i see people talking about 901, 801, titan etc... are there different "frame" types for e-cigs? all i know about my e-cig is that its a two piece (atty is in the disposable cart) and its made by E-Cigs.

Then you need to read this (long but a must) - http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...ping-illustrated-guide-e-cigs-part-1-6-a.html

well i came to the conclusion that my super-mini does not let me know when it charging or when its done charging. i kept it plugged in for 3 hours and no light ever came on. then i unplugged it and used it for the rest of the day to drain the battery a bit and still no light came on after plugging it back in.
perhaps some of these e-cigs just dont have that feature?

There is a sub forum for the super minis in model specific sub sub forum (lol) Model Specific Discussion - E-Cigarette Forum
Once your post count is higher you will be able to chat with other mini users to get some more tips to get the most out of it.
To answer your question, most other PV don't use that feature but some do.

that ecig was no good. it turns out that it was not charging, i plugged it in all morning and when i try to draw on it the LED just blinks a few times. i dunno what is going on with it cause when i try to plug it into my computer my usb mouse stops working lol. my CD player in my truck has a USB port and i even tried that but as soon as i plugged it in i heard a pop and the CD player just died (it blew a fuze on it) i was ......!
i went to a local smoke shop today and i got me a real e-cig, its the SS choice No.7

First thing I do if I don't know if something I received is working is contact the people I purchased from. I'd give that a try if you haven't. Sometimes stuff arrives Dead On Arrival, (DOA). Most sellers will cover DOA's if contacted as soon as it's determined it isn't working. This is almost always "the sooner the better" notification. JMHO

Make sure the batt is completely seated. Some types screw in, and some just push in. Make sure the screw in type are completely screwed in and if a push in one, push and turn.

You might have a DOA batt. sometimes that happens. QC in China can be a bit spotty at times
