Joyetech eGo/eGo-T 650mAh USB Pass-Through Battery Not Responsive

[Penn23]

I purchased a Joyetech eGo USB Passthrough for Electronic Cigarette and have been using it for about three days. Today it blinked about 15-20 times so I assumed it needed to charge. I put it on the charger and the red light came on. About an hour later the red light was no longer on, so I removed it from the charger.

It is no longer responsive. I can not "5-click" it on, and it does not respond when plugging in the pass-through. Any suggestions?

Or should I just contact the seller to see if I can get a replacement?

Hi Penn,
Sounds like you should contact the seller. It may have died on you.

Thanks I went ahead and contacted the retailer. But after some tinkering I resolved the problem. Thought I'd share incase anyone else runs into this: I tried the center post trick at first thinking I had a short, but nothing. I then tried to charge on a regular ego charger, nothing. But interestingly enough, after grabbing a second ego charger I had sitting around, the battery popped back to life. It seems like it had full charge already but got stuck in some sort of permanent sleep mode. Weird, but I'm happy.
