Issue with a VV Grand

[Whodoo]

My new Reo is on the fritz. The batteries are fully charged, but I can't get any atty to fire. I'll be sending it back to Reo this week, it's probably my fault.

Has anyone else experienced an issue? I've babied mine, but have always noticed a little juice in the 510 connection when I unscrew the rba. Could juice have leaked into the circuitry area maybe?

Luckily I have a back-up, but it ain't a Reo. Funny thing is, once I knew there was an issue I began contemplating ordering a Mini. So bad!

Your atty/RBA may have changed ohms over time, try lowering your voltage all the way and see if it fires. The protection circuitry will shut the mod down if the ohms are too low and the voltage too high.

If you use an RBA check to see if the screws holding the coil legs has loosened up. This tends to be a frequent problem on many RBS's.

I'd check the off/on switch.

Try a standard atty and like Jack said turn your voltage down

There's an on/off switch?? j/k


I'll troubleshoot again tonight, thanks for the feedback.

Hopefully a new xtar battery charger arrives today, the $20 cheapie that I bought from madvapes has a mind of its own & I don't trust it. I bought the 18350 specific charger from Xtar (MP2).

So far all the difft atty's i've tried work just fine on my other vapes.

I'll be using a smoktech Bolt mod until the VV is back in action, and (I think) I can taste the body of the Bolt with each drag. The Reo tastes much, much better. Or rather I should say that i cannot detect a taste from the Reo's body.

The issue was the batteries. Crappy hg-1412-w battery charger. The xtar mp2 is sweet for the 18350's.

A pair of properly charged batteries is all it took.

Yay!!! You saved it a trip to Maine. So glad you got it sorted out. Facing a week without it was a bleak thought, I'm sure. Congratulations!
