My first hardware problem :(

[QueenInNC]

I have a new battery that has worked great for two days. It is fully charged. However, the LED comes on with the draw but no vapor. The atomizer is fine. It works with other batteries. I am sure the answer to my question is here somewhere but I looked for 10 minutes and got impatient.
Is the battery jacked up? Can I fix it? I already tapped in on the counter...nothing. Thanks!

Check and see if that battery will work with a different atomiser, if it does it may just be that the connection is weak between the battery and that specific atomiser.

Can you try a different atomizer on that battery? Yes, I know your atomizer is fine but sometimes batteries get in such a way that they don't make a good connection with certain atomizers. (First of course clean the connections on both the atomizer and battery.)

Do you have access to a voltmeter? That would tell you straight away whether the battery was wacked or if it was just a connection problem.

Oh and one last thing, does the LED blink when you screw it into the charger?

Did you cuss it profusely and stair it down for a few minutes?
Seriously, try cleaning the connection down in it with something. just wipe it out. They can get a little build up and not make connection.

It does work with a different atomizer just not as well as it should (about 80%). No voltmeter here. The LED does blink when I put it on the charger. Weird! I put a small nick in that battery and the atomizer it works with so I will know which is which. That kind of sucks though! I got it from ping, so I am not about to try to send it back! lol

I did cuss!

That's definitely a connection problem then. Again, be sure to thoroughly clean the contacts. Screw it down firmly when you put it back together. I _would_ get into tin foil and "roughing up" the surfaces, but... nah, don't try anything like that until you've exhausted all else.

If you're bored you might try putting both parts near a warm heating vent for a while and trying again.

Queen--battery LED lighting, but no vape--sounds like a connection issue to me as well -- you need to get this striaght before the big trip!!! So give them an e-mail and tell them to send you out a new one ( and another for your troubles!!) Sun
