My battery won't shut off

[sweetniko]

My replacement battery I received 2 weeks ago won't shut off.
I took a drag and it stayed lit for about 20 seconds. I put it in my back pocket and went outside. About 30 minutes later I felt it burning my ..... I thought it was a bug biting me. I took it out of my back pocket and it was glowing. It turned on by itself in my pocket and would not turn off. I left it in the car so I don't know how long it was on. Anyway- when I received this battery and put it into the the charger it would glow ORANGE.after recharging..not red and green. It would go from Red to Orange. I thought this was odd but I continued to use it because it was working. Is there anyway to fix this battery? Like remove it from the case or something...I would rather fix it if I can than wait for a replacement.
Thanks.

sorry to say your batty has bit the dust...

If its an Auto there is not much you can do. I have an XL auto that is doing the same thing and there is no way to fix it..

I know its a pain in the ...., but if your not going to be using it for awhile or are busy, detach the cartomizer from the battery.

Have you contacted customer care yet? They will get it replaced for you. I'm assuming it is an auto, correct? If so then the switch is just messed up in it. It happens, they will take care of ya.

 

[sweetniko]

OK- i'll email them. I just feel bad b/c it is a replacement and now the replacement doesn't work either.

 

[Kimmy]

Don't feel bad! If it's not working properly you are using the warentee as it is intended! They will probably ask you to send back the broken one so they can analyze it to try to figure out why it happened and how to prevent it from happening again. Don't sweat it!

 

[Darrigaaz]

Definitely send it back since it sounds like the internal cutoff circuitry isn't working properly either.

 

[leaford]

Yes, indeed. Write to Born at customer_service@vapor4life.com, and he'll take care of ya!

I had this occur on only two of my batteries:
One was brand new, a manual regular length. I emailed and they said to certainly send it back, and if I was placing an order in the near future they would include a replacement in the order, or send me a new one if I wasn't planning on ordering right away. No questions or need to analyze it first. They just automatically offered to take care of it.

They did send me a replacement in my next order, actually before the one I returned reached them. I have another one I just got about two weeks ago, and it was doing that this morning. Would just flash non-stop, so I got it to shut off by tapping it hard in my palm, and left it alone all day. I'm going to try charging it this evening. I have three manuals, and I only carry two with me, so the third doesn't get used much, however I had it out last night. I think I need to put it in rotation as well to break it in, and the switch will most likely solve it's own issue with some regular use.

I'm not bashing their batts by any means, just that they sell sooo many batteries, probably hundreds to the three I've heard of that have a touchy switch! They will most certainly get you a replacement again, I'm sure. I have found their products to be superior to anyone else, by far. I don't know where their liquids come from either, but I think they taste the best of any. And it's probably the same as some others' liquids, but for some reason, it just taste the best to me

 

[sweetniko]

They emailed me right away and said another one would be shipped out.
That was super fast.
I'll mail them back the "possessed one."

On a side note, to dry your vodka washed cart's really fast put them in front of a space heater that blows out hot air. I refilled mine about 30 minutes later and they were fine.

I know its a pain in the ...., but

ZING!

I had to

 

[Kimmy]

ZING!

I had to

Hahahahahahahha nillius. I didn't even realize that!

 

[empnero]

is there anyway to fix the possessed autos? mine did it for the first time today, woke up to a blue light and a carto with the label burnt off. I really really don't wanna get rid off this one, its my favorite battery

 

[MX5]

I had one do this and V4L took care of me, and they will you too! Contact cs.

Why smoke when You Can VAPE!!

That I totally agree with. I ran out of juice so I went to the vendor in the mall, it was 30 bucks for a 5ml bottle but my shipment was due in a day or two so I said to hell with it I'll buy it. God the menthol tasted like crap! V4L has the best flavored juices IMO!

 

[MeMa]

I have 2 batts that do that. I can shut them off by blowing in the auto or by pressing the switch on the manual. Have you tried that?

 

[empnero]

that does work for a few min. then it randomly turned back on. I let it die, maybe after i recharge it itll work right again. I even capped both ends so no air was flowing. didnt work.

 

[Adrenalynn]

Nope - no effective way of reviving that switch has been discovered. And not for not trying either.

 

[MeMa]

That's a shame! I will consider myself lucky!
