Major Lava Tube Issues :(

[puttikat]

My mini ss lava tube will not stay on no matter what atomizer or cartomizer I use. Although last night I did get it to work for about an hour or more with a CE9 tank. First have problems turning it on. I press lil red button for 5 seconds and nothing happens, if I press and hold button again after about 5 seconds the lava tube takes its own hit which I grab and inhale and then it shuts itself off. It will not stay on, i have tried 3 different imr 18350 700mah flat top high resistant batteries and none of these change the above described reactions. I do not know how I managed to get it to work last night but today I cannot no matter what I try ~ very frustrating.

Please any suggestions?
Thank you for your time.
Wendy

Could be an electronics problem. You should contact the vendor for a replacement.

Sounds like time to contact the vendor for a replacement. Murphy's Law says that a certain % will be flawed when you get mass produced products.

Yes I believe you are both right and *wow* Thank you both for such quick replies...err replys(?) anyways Thanks!

That sounds like it could be the 1.5 version (not actually made by Lrider) There have been recalls on it.

Contact the supplier that you bought it from.

Its the "newest" 3.0 version according to what I ordered...possibly a switch-a-roo may have accurred somewhere between there and me though, ya never know. Thank you for your reply also.

Hey Wendy,

I would let the vendor you bought it from know about the issues you are having. If it's a good vendor they should offer a replacement if you haven't owned it for long. Even if you have owned it for a while I would still contact the vendor and see what can be done. You never know till you ask.

It may be juice in the unit.

If the vendor can't help you, you could probably do and alcohol soak sans batt of course.

Let it dry over night to be sure and you ahould be good to go.

I have not tried this, so i do not know for sure if it would work.

Thank you all for your suggestions! I contacted the vendor ~ they are waiting on a new shipment, once it arrives they will replace with a new unit, Yayyyyy Appreciate everyone's input.

He has the SS tube, I believe L-Rider V1 is the only SS.
