:shock:I just recieved my Black Classic pen style e-cig from PureSmoker yesterday. Was going to use this as my main e-cig as I have a 901 and an NjoyPro, both of which I love, and next week im quitting analogs for good. Well, I excitedly charged 1 battery for 12 hours overnight, and have vaped on it a bit today. I went to take a long (4 second or so) drag on it, produced a lot of vapor, but the atomizer kept running after i stopped! So I immediatly disconnected the cartridge (original cart. I havnt dripped or anything with it yet) and it stopped, scared me a bit. I bravely took another drag after a little while, and got nothing but a hiss, no vapor, and the tip didnt light up at all. I unscrewed and put it back together, worked fine for a few short drags. Then same thing, no vapor or light, only a hiss. Just wondering if anyone can give some advice on this, im perplexed and dissapointed! Thanks!

LOL, maybe mine is having worse problems than that now. I set it down in idle mode on the desk, about a half hour later I happened to look down at it and saw that the blue led was lit, I havnt vaped in a while nor has there been any kind of moving air in the room at all! The atomizer was hot as heck from running for I dont know how long. Im not trusting this at all.

I just bought a new penstyle and was wondering if anyone has suggestions for my problem....

The battery end stays lit. I can set it down gently, and it is off, then when I glance over at it.... it is on again. This has to be draining the battery.

Anyone know any tricks on how to get this to stop?

BTW, I have an EVO, and a DSE901 and this penstyle is awesome! I just need to figure out this battery thing. As much as I love my other two... I suspect the penstyle will be my e-cig of choice.

Thanks!

WOW - My opinion throw em all away or return them get your money back and buy a Joye 510 you wont be dissapointed...

Isn't that the same as the TITAN?

If so... I am very anxious to try it. Thanks to Totally Wicked's donation to the Miss ECF contest, I'll be getting a TITAN and some juice soon! :D

AnglVapin, this sounds like an unstable switch. One thing that can help is: screw off the battery, then try blowing, then sucking on it in quick succession for a bit. The light should go on (blow) and go off (suck, or alternatively not do anything though this last will go a bit slower). If you indeed see this as a result (or if you see that it's 'on it's way' to get there, then in that case just continue for a while longer with this) - then try screwing it onto the atomizer again, see if it now behaves better.
You might have to repeat these steps for a couple of days, because just letting the pen sit without using it might bring back the unstableness for a while yet - but after a few days, the switch should be working okay and if it doesn't, then I would advise to swap it if you can - then it's probably going to stay a troublemaker.

Also, just to be sure, clean the contacts well (threads but also the small plates that touch each other) - impurities on the contacts can cause some strange things too.

I hope this helps a bit, good luck on getting it to work (and I think you are right in favouring the pen-style btw - it IS good when it works well ;) )

Don't throw the pen away, flavours are best with the pen and cigars imo and it has a great throat hit with fully charged battery!

Sent the battery back for a replacement :)

Yes it is the Joye510 is the same as the Dura-C/Titan/Yeti and theres a couple more names for it I believe and you are gonna love it... I hope the one they send you has both Manual Batts reason for this is not only is there no cut-off but the batterys are also sealed so dripping will not damage your batterys... Just be religious about the initail 8 hour charge, use 20 mins then charge for another hour... also never charge after that for less than an hour even if the light turns green I like to charge for 2-3 hours and I get a decent battery life before re-charge... and the Vapor OMG makes my M401 & PeeWee look like ......ed rejects...
