Joye Stick V3 & 801 Atty

[snitter]

Just got my new Joye Stick V3 from Heaven Gifts today. I love it, & it works great with the 302 atty that came in the pack, but I cant seem to get 801 attys to work on it. Arrrgghh!

It clearly says that Pen-Style attys are compatible. I have tried the ones from HG that I ordered with it, & some Totally Wicked ones too. No joy. I tested the attys on my Janty Kissbox beforehand & they worked fine.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Mark

Probably the bridge in the atty is too low.
It doesn't touch the filter in the cartridge.

Try to pull out filter a little bit and test it.
If it produces vapor, that it's the case.

I had that problem too. Now I use 510 adapter
to use with 510 atomizer. It works great and
won't have any leaking problem any more.

Hi Lit

No, its not that. The atty just doesnt seem to be getting any power to it. There is no heating up or crackling when I press the button.

I just wondered if some 801's work, & some dont.

Cheers

Snitter -

Unless your atty is totally dead staple method will help.

"Like other penstyle device owners, I have run across an atomizer that will not mate properly with a power source connector...."

Read the rest of the story here http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...-center-conductor-gap-penstyle-atomizers.html.

It is a good idea to have a multimeter to check your batts voltage or to check your attys.
The resistance of penstyle attys should be around 3.5 Ohms, if it reads "0" or more than "5" ohms you can throw them away.

Edit: Read Jim Davis's sticky http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...7-ecf-troubleshooting-guide-revision-3-a.html, particularly "Bad Battery to Atomizer Connection" section on his "E-cig Troubleshooting Guide - Revision 3" pdf file

IMO, the first and simplest thing to try is screwing the atty down tighter. V2 sticks had this issue, maybe it carried over to the V3? Rule of thumb: tighten it as far as it goes, then tighten it some more.

SOLVED IT!!

Just prise the centre pole (+) at the bottom of the atty up a bit. It only took a tiny bit & it now works fine. The + must not have been connecting properly.

I had a few TW attys that I thought were DOA & tried this with them. They work fine now too!! Hurrah!!

There ya go. "Ta da!"

Have a go

P.S. Thanks for all the suggestions. Much appreciated.

That was going to be my next suggestion.

Just kidding. Glad you found the solution. This problem and that solution has been reported in 3 or 4 other cases that I've noticed so far in recent days. I wonder if the atty connectors in the V3 sticks are slightly more recessed than previous batches, or if there are some batches of atty floating around that have this problem (I've seen mention of that recently too). Something for Janty to keep an eye on.

I just received my V3 and have the same problem. I tried pulling up the center pole on my TW atties but had no success in getting them to fire up. Of course, I can't tell, once I've finished fiddling with the center pole, whether my fiddling actually changed the height any. I may have to look into that staple mod thing.
