I have a problem with my VE Vision ultimate that I purchased about 10 weeks ago.
I changed the atomiser to a 1.8 ohm, placed a fully charged battery to it, it then vaped for a couple of seconds, then the battery went dead, I suspected a faulty battery so I attached another fully charged battery to it and this did the same.


I then emptied the juice from the cartomiser to check that I had screwed it together correctly and could see nothing visually wrong!
The 1.8 ohm is the third one I have used from a packet of 5, I did not have a problem with the other two.


I am not sure if the problem is with the atomiser short circuiting or some other, but it has wiped out two batteries.
I have stopped using this cartomiser, but I am worried about using the other spare atomisers.

I have emailed the supplier explaining this and awaiting a reply, I thought I would ask on here just incase someone has experienced similar.

i had the same problem three times, twice is my fault and the third time is the their fault, but some how all three times i have managed to save the batteries
first two times is because i try to re-wick the coil with mesh and cause a short, however i managed to save the batteries from dead ( no lights no responds ) , i just long hold the fire button for more than 10 seconds and then random click five to ten times , third batteries i just used chinese methods to fix because clicks and ten seconds reset method does not work, bang them against the wall a few times and it works again ( this is not a joke! ) , i have about 10 brand new batteries in my tool box for future use thats why i bang them against the wall, so third method, try at your own risk.

Thanks for that fehk2001, I have tried all of those methods except the third one as I was hoping to hear from the online retailer that I bought it from for some advise, but I was duly ignored, as a regular customer I am not very happy about this, I have not mentioned any names yet, but I am going to.

But to be fair, most of the vender does stated these batteries average life cycle is around 3 months ( 12 weeks ) , so dont get too upset about this and thats why i have lots of ego batteries for replacements, they are about 4.50 each , ego-t batteries can fit ego c as well

Hi, Where do you get your ego batteries from?

Got to admit I'd have been very surprised if you hadn't had a reply from that vendor.

I was too, but I remembered you mentioning on another thread that they were moving, so I thought, wrongly, that might be why.

They had in fact responded the same day, the reason I did not find it is that my mail is filtered through to my iPad, but my junk is not.

I have since been offered a battery by Vapescape free of charge, even though it was totally my fault, so I am now going off to finish eating HUMBLE PIE.
