Sounds like it’s having a major fit, not a mini one. :D

probability of intermittent connection somewhere in the electronics, which in a pod device means “it’s junk now”

It might possibly be goo in your automatic switch vacuum chamber if the thing has an automatic switch. Still probably not fixable.

Welcome to the forum btw :)

The problem with sealed devices is they’re sealed. Everything is fixable, generally, but it becomes a question of is it worth the trouble?

The blinking on off thing has all the hallmarks of either an intermittent connection or a safety cutout. Either is fatal in a sealed device unless you unseal it and get out the microsoldering equipment and multimeter. Goes to “is it worth the trouble”. Also could be dangerous since sealed battery devices are generally LiPo, and that blinking thing is something I’ve actually seen on LiPo mods with failed cells. Open in up and you could find a puffy battery pack. DO NOT PUNCTURE THE PUFFY BATTERY PACK. There are up sides to sealed mods too.

I just bought 1 week ago via online shopping. I also try asking the operator but he didnt give feedback.
ask for a return or exchange, 1 week should still be under their warranty. Where did you buy it from?

I buy from shopee. I keep gv text many times but they didnt response. Very bas service.
I thought you said you bought it online? If it was from a shop, go back to that shop and speak to them directly. If it was online, please let us know where and we might be able to help find a better way to contact them (especially if they are an approved vender here at ecf)

nevermind I see.... it's kind of like an ebay/aliexpress/amazon type thing.... try contacting shopee directly about the vender
In my experience and from what I have read on forums, these types of businesses (aside from possibly Amazon) often don't have the greatest business integrity. They may have the best prices available anywhere and therefore attract a lot of business, but often their customer support is found to be lacking or nonexistant.

I certainly would never purchase a battery or battery device from any of the above. Consider this a lesson learned.
