KTS KAMRY Fire button extremely hot

[pauljungg]

Just purchased the KTS Kamry and having a major malfunction. The firing button gets extremely hot after a couple seconds. Anyone have any similar problems and hopefully a solution to the issue. I have contacted the company and they kept insisting it is a copy from a different company and refused to assist me further.

What are you using on top? My first thing to check would be make sure there are no shorts

aga t2 but i have tested with a lr carto and vivi nova 2.4 ohm and there seems to be no change

 

[Aubie80]

Thats odd, I use 2 kamrys all day long and the only time I get a hot button effect is when there is a short or I have a washer touching the positive and negative leads together. Can you take a picture of your coil setup as close and clear as possible for other to help aid in this dilemma?

Also make sure there is no exposed part of the battery touch anything inside the tube, I had that cause the problem once.

im sure theres no issue with any shorts i can run this on the provari no problem

and how come the photos post so tiny..

 

[Aubie80]

I dont see anything noticeably wrong on the coil. Have you tried using a regular prebuilt device like a protank carto or atty with it? Does it do the same thing?

I have no clue why the photos post so tiny, but if you click on the photo it makes it a little bigger.

yep... ive tried with a lr boge carto and a vivi nova at 2.4 ohms. on the provari i can jack it up to 4.2 volts and 1.1 ohm coil

 

[Aubie80]

And the button gets hot even with a regular atty?

 

[pauljungg]

Yep. I used the aga t2 same coil fine on the smoktek telescope and im currently using the k100 no problem also.. its just on the kts I cant seem to be able to use anything

WOW! I hope you can get your vendor to replace the item or refund for your troubles. I am at a loss I apologize.

Good luck.

they said I gotta pay 65 dollars for shipping.. thanks anyhow ! Appreciate the effort

 

[Aubie80]

65 dollars shipping? Thats outrageous! You can get 2 new ones for a little more than that. Many place sell them, out of curiosity where did you get yours?

Sounds like a problem with the switch making bad contact to me. You may be able to fix it with some sand paper, or may need to replace part of your switch, but that's beyond my expertise with that device. If you know where the switch makes contact, just lightly sand it, enough to scuff it a bit.

I would agree with this. I just got this mod and have been using it exclusively with an AGA-T2 and have had absolutely no issues whatsoever. For the price, it's by far one of the best mech mods I've used....

 

[Aubie80]

You can get new switches at hoosier vapes

There's no way. Absolutely no way
