Merged old sticky threads (7)

My Stick's switch just crapped out on me. The switch was stuck in the 'on' position and every time I pressed it it would vape until the cutoff. It also burnt an atomizer which now emits noxious fumes. Hoping that they have fixed this problem with this June 28th batch.

My husband wrecked the button on our Dish remote. $50 to replace! He always used his thumbnail to depress the buttons, instead of the pad on his thumb. His thumb is pretty big, I think that's why he did that, so he didn't touch the adjoining buttons....
The little post underneath got scewed so it wouldn't push straight in anymore, I wonder if this switch is configured the same. I always use my thumb flat on the button, haven't had a problem, but I'm not about to un-stick the switch assmbly to find out what the post underneath looks like. Could this be a "guy" thing?

No - it does not feel like that - it feel more like a little dimpled piece of copper - I always hold it down flat - It will often cut off in mid flow with pressure still applied constant - they just got some buggy ones

my janty stick doesnt charge via usb cable. so i went to radio shack with proper voltage info from the user manual via this forum, and bought a battery charger so i could get them charged and use the stick. And It still flashes 5 times (red) every time i take a puff. so i guess my switch is toast? Is there a special sweet spot that I should be pushing, at least I've read. I tried talking sweet to it and occasionally it will let me have one small vaped drag and than flash again.......I guess I will be sending it back when the v2 gets here?!?!?!

great to hear - I still haven't been able to get a good answer on the percentage of buttons having the issue - Fingers crossed that my replacement will be a good one

OK - got my new stick in last week - Same as the first one - First 4 days GREAT! - Then rapidly declining performance - Exactly the same trouble and time frame as the first one - Looks like a 4 day switch to me - LOL - -

Does anyone know if the V2 Stick has a NEW SWITCH?

Well, after bragging on mine all this time, my switch is messed up and the cover for the switch is comming off as well. i put scotch tape around it for now and its kinda working. sometimes i have to bump the js to get it to work
I will say that my stick is not leaking though. just a bad switch
i just filed a request with janty.

 

[Zestok90]

Well needless to say right now its not even working.
I but everything together the way I thought?
The atomizer screwed right in, and the battery was easy to install.
Put the cartridge in and I puffed about 20 different times adn got nothing at all.
Not even the slightest bit of smoke.
After my frusteration I went to take the atomizer out to take a look and see if that was maybe what was wrong, and now I've been trying to get the atomizer out for like a half an hour.
I'm new to teh Janty Stick, so I;m probably doing something really stupid.
Anyone got any advice?

 

[wanderlust]

Saw an earlier post where someone shoved the white cart cap over the atomizer tube to make for easier removal.

 

[Zestok90]

yeah, I just took pliars to it, I think they sent me a bad atomizer, cus nothing is working, all LEDs come on, I put the batter in right, theres power, I'm just not getting any vappor.
Man... I'm so bummed out. I couldn't wait for this thing, and now I get it and it can;t even work.
Very dissappointed.
Bad initial impression.

 

[JustJulie]

I won't go so far as to say that it's impossible, but it sure is hard to get the atomizer out without a cartridge cap in the atomizer.

Try putting a tight-fitting cartridge cap on the atomizer and then twisting. It seems counter-intuitive, but I PUSH as I twist and then once I feel movement, I start to pull as I twist. Make sense?

 

[gjrhine]

It could be like V1 where when you think you've got the atomizer screwed in you really don't. Give it an extra little turn.

 

[Zestok90]

Wow.... I really don't know what I did. Gary J, I tried turning it more, and it didn't work, so I started to take it out adn un srew adn I accidentally hit the button and it hissed at me!
I knew then that the atomizer was working. Took a hit and got beautiful clouds of vapor.
Very impressed now, just took about an hour of tinkering and freaking out haha.
Thanks for the help everyone!

 

[johnaburks]

I had to put a pair of needle nose to mine to get it to seat all the way. It's a VERY tight fit.

 

[Zestok90]

Oh and the cart cap, I get it now!
I only have a 510 and a bunch of supplies for it, and my friend gave me a DSE901.
Im just used to screwing, and unscrewing.
Atomizer comes out really easy now.

Oh, if only all of life's problems could be so quickly and easily solved.

Glad you got your stick up and running . . . I think you're going to like it.

Now that I got it working I can give a moderatlly decent review on it.

Lets get started...
Everything seemed fairly simple to put together, except for the confusion with the atomizer, but after I got that set in, I've taken like 10 drags off it and man!
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful clouds of vapor. Its a much nicer thinker smoke than my 510.
The Throat hit on it is a little weak, but thats because I'm used to my 510, and that thing really packs a wallop. Having a little less of a throat hit isn't always bad though, it feels as if I'm smoking a hookah.
I'm still getting a decent amount of flavor out of the JS V2. About just as much as my 510 I would say. I know some people said that tehy lost some flavor, but so far it seems excellent.
I also don't get that plastic taste like some people were saying.
Its also Drip ready, which seems to work really well, better than my 510 I would almost say.
I was also reallly suprised with the size.
The pictures are really misleading haha. I thought it was gonna be, well... bigger than it was. Its about 4mm I would say smaller than my 510!
I like the portability of it, and the ability to smoke at my computer desk now, while it is charging!
Overall, so far I'm impressed.
Shipping was also very fast 2 days!
I take back what I said early, I was just frusterated and I thought I got sent a bad atomizer or something.
I've been eagerly waiting for this thing for like 2 weeks now haha.
I'll update this again later with more input, and I will probably do a much more in depth video review of both my 510 and the Janty Stick V2, since I should be finally receiving my web cam today!
