Hello and welcome to the forum. Glad to have you here!
It may be that the center pin of the battery is not making a connection with the atomizer of the clearomizer/tank. This usually occurs from over-tightening the tank onto the battery connector. Just make sure that if you use something conductive (metal) to pry up on the center pin that you do NOT hit the fire button while you are working on the battery. Or better yet, turn off the battery.

I would venture to guess that the reason your device is not working properly is because you overcharged it.
Just be thankful that you didn't burn down your home or get hurt in any way.
Never EVER leave ANY battery to charge unattended. Certainly not while you sleep.
Obviously your battery has suffered some degree of damage and should be replaced immediately. It may be unsafe to use.

How many times is it blinking?
If it's blinking 3 times:
If it's blinking 3 times:
- Press the button 5 times to turn the battery off.
- Then press it again (5 times) to turn the battery on.

Having used Ego style batteries for a longtime I have had this happen to me more than once. Generally the problem is due to a bad connection between the battery and the tank/atomizer.
First thing to try is simply drying/cleaning off the contact points on the battery and the tank/atomizer with a cloth or Q-tip. After this if the result is the same I would try rocking the pin in the battery back and forth gently a few times using a small screw driver etc as if you over torqued the charger onto the battery it can cause the center pin in the battery to get pushed down into the battery and this will lift it up. Do not first the battery while doing this! Best to turn off the battery via the 5 click method first. Do not forget to turn it back on afterwards with another 5 click
If the above fails, try a new atomizer. I have never had a battery where the light still worked but the battery was bad, I had had one come apart however

Most likely, a bad connection. A bad battery is also possible. Those eGo types are not long lived. Some of them never work at all.
Thank you.. I'll try it., if it doesn't work Idk what's wrong with this anymore
Good luck, I will be around for a bit to see if it works or not.
thank you for helping me out. it'll be unfortunate if I wont be able to use it
No way to know, sorry. They make those things by the thousands on automated machinery and Chinese QC is not what it attains in other countries. Some of them are great, they can last for years. Others... not so much. You can't tell by looking, and when they break it costs more than a new one to fix it. I think of them as disposable. When they break, throw it away and get another. Wish I could help more.
Between my wife and I we have used 4 of them since early 2010, 1 fell apart just under the fire button, one just died after a few years of use, other 2 going strong still. You millage may vary, some can be broken/dead on arrival, or after a few months. Or they last you years.
I have ego style clone batteries that have worked reliably for 11 months. No dead ones yet. From reading on here it seems that the Spinner VV types seem to die the most often.
keep your advices coming. im trying all of those. seems like nothing yet is working. I don't know anymore.thanks though.

haven't tried the new atomizer, I still need to look for new one
I think the flashing light indicates a shorted atty.
If you remove the atomizer and press the button what happens? Steady light? if so shorted atomizer.
