Kanger Evod Battery Problem

[SkrachtKat]

My apologies in advance if this question has been asked/answered already....I have a 1000mah ego battery. When the button is pressed with nothing attached to the battery, it lights up as it's supposed to. When I charge the battery, the charger's green light illuminates indicating that it is currently charged. The problem I have is that when the clearomizer is attached, the battery stops working and the light will not illuminate when the button is pushed. I can unscrew the clearomizer a bit and the light on the battery will illuminate but no vaping will follow. So, I guess its some sort of connection issue. I have gently "pulled up" the pins on the battery but that does not seem to work. I have also tried other chargers. This has actually happened on 2 batteries that I own. Any suggestions or advise would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

does it not light up AT ALL, or does it blink when pressing the button?

if blinking, it indicates a short - i would sudjest trying a different tank or coil if possible.

otherwise, if no light is output, i would sudjest getting a new battery as that one sounds faulty (broken solder point or something)

Are all the contacts clean? On the battery and charger?

The charger light being green doesn't necessarily mean the battery is charged. It means the charger thinks the battery is charged OR that the charger doesn't see a battery. (Plug the charger, without battery, into your 5 VDC source - the green light will come on.)

So, with luck, your battery is discharged and just not making a good connection to the charger. You think it's charged but it isn't. Or the charger could be bad.

Use a cotton swab and rubbing alcohol to clean the connections, give it time to evaporate off, and try again. And if you can, try another charger as well before giving up on the battery.

could be a short circuit.Does it happen with all your clearomizers?

My wife's did as well before she upgraded. We had to give the contacts and clearo's a deep clean with alcohol + qtips. Just old juice that was hard to see but enough to cause issues with the circuit. I'd say give that a try.
