Problem with Vapor King Mini from V4L

[Hack]

I am really impressed with my new e-cig but my battery's only last about 20 puffs...ABSOLUTE joke! I have charged them as you normally would. But after a week of this happening I know there is something more wrong with it. I went on their site and could not find an email address to contact them. Could someone please help me. Thanks.

You have to go there and fill out a ticket.

Hope this link works

And if you bought auto batteries, I recommend against them. It is easy to damage auto batteries if you are refilling cartos.

No way do i refill my cartos...As if i would have syringes full of nicotine hanging around my house! Yeah they are auto batteries. Thanks for the link swedishfish I will check that out now.

Sometimes the connection on the battery gets pushed down. You could get a paper clip and stick it in the battery end and gently pull it up slightly. I don't know if that'll help it last longer, but when my Mom's won't charge I do this and it helps.

I have heard this as well. I have been using autos exclusively and I use blank carts and refill them all the time. I have yet to have that first problem with them. I also clean my batteries with a toothbrush and rubbing alcohol on a fairly regular basis. The 2 auto shorties that came with my kit back in July 2010 are still working.

That's because you're careful. No matter how many times I tell my Mom not to fill the carto attached to the battery she still does. Sometimes I look inside her carto and it's juice soup, she overfills them so much.

Now I fill a bunch of cartos for her. Easier that way.

Just bought a starter kit from vapor4life as well. Bought ultimate ultimatum with the manual batteries. Havent had one problem with them after about a week. I would recommend manual over auto as well. Vapor4life has excellent customer service. Email them and they will be more than happy to replace the battery and make you happy!

Yeah, I guess you're right. After I fill, I always blow the excess out and make sure my battery end is dry as a bone before I connect it with the battery.
