Hey Folks of E-Cig Land,
Not long that I've been a member but I've done a lot of reading and been using the Joye 510 for a while now, picked up an Ego Twist and it was delivered today with 3
CE4 Plus Clearomizers
but I'm having issues.

I fill them as I would the Vision 2.0's I've got (drip fluid down the inside wall of the glass tube) but when I try to fire them up, I've got no popping, no vape, no th, no signs of life. They seem to be DOA. Before I contact the seller I'd like to hear if anyone has suggestions or experience that I'm lacking on these guys...

Much appreciated!

Is the Center Pole of the Battery Connector Pushed into the CE4 so it doesn't make contact with your Battery?

This happens sometimes on New Cartos.

Yeah , what he said . Plus , if you have amuli-meter , you can check the ohm resistance . Set meter to 200 ohms , put red probe to center of the connection . Now put the black probe , on the outside threads of the connection . If the meter doesn't change , it's deadd . If it shows some resistance , it's not dead . Then the center post on the clearo or whatevr , needs to be pulled out a little , so it will make contact with the battery . I have a few twists , and it's a fairly common occurrence .

Checked the head-connection, seemed tight. Pulled out the trusty meter from storage and fired her up, set ohms for 200 and checked levels against a known resistance (2.8 ohms of my Vision 2) to prove the meter was working.

I then measured resistance by placing the red probe to center contact of the connection, placed the black probe on the outside threads of the connection and measured 0 ohms. Looks dead to me, would you concur?

I also tried the same procedure with the second CE4 Plus Clearomizer that didn't want to work with the same results. Perhaps a bad batch? I've got one more to try, it's never been filled--still in it's plastic wrap.

Cheers and thanks for the tips!
