Possible to revive 901 batteries?

[dc32]

I've had horrible luck with my batteries lately....2 of them just died, and I ordered 2 more and they came shipped dead...after charging, the light comes on but no vapor

The vendor mentioned cleaning the contacts with rubbing alchohol, drying & recharging....no luck

I've tried two different chargers as well just to verify its not the chargers

what gives? any advice on how to get these batteries working?

Thanks

nope if they are dead they are dead.

To test, charge.

If the battery blinks it is starting to charge,

Leave on charger for 30 mins, then take off and suck on it. If it glows it is holding charge, so charge it up for 2 - 3 hours and continue.

If it doesn't blink, it is technically called f*cked

Hope that helps.

It's possible contact is not being made between atomizer and battery. Try pulling the little round contact in the atomizer out very slightly with a pair of needle nose plyers and see if it will connect with the battery contact.
