I'll give that a go . Mine only recharges if I do a reset, & tells me goodbye but will start again on first press. Have noticed you
have to make the rite face & cross fingers & toes when connecting usb. I'm get'n wd40 now.

Well dont have to use reset to get it charging but when I turn it off it'll still fire up again on first press. So wd40 got charge
issue sorted.

Well hell, WD40 really does work. I had the same problem. Took everything out of the case, sprayed the usb port with a bit of WD40 and then hit it with some compressed air, and then wiped everything clean with a bit of alcohol. Everything seems perfectly fine now. That top cap is the biggest problem I believe. I tended to get juice dripping inside the case all the time and sometimes would find a big puddle of juice building up under the mod itself. The stuff was going all the way through the mod and out the bottom and around the buttons. I also didn't like the way the wires were bent up and twisted inside to fit, so I ended up replacing the topcap backwards (510 on other side). Finished it off by sticking on some transparent, waterproof tape (meant for sealing up tears in camping tents) on the top cap to keep any juice from sneaking inside. I'd prefer a rubber seal of sorts (silicon gasket in a tube might work), but this should be ok for now.

Hello fellow vapers!
I've just joined this forum to give a little hope in regards to the issues noted about the Smok M80 Plus.....
I've owned this device since May this year, worked perfectly until about 3 weeks ago. First fault was it wouldn't turn off and was displaying "charging" when no cable was attached. I could deal with this because it would still work and I could continue Vaping! Also, the reset button was useless! Then about 1 week ago, I charged it overnight (as usual) ready to vape as soon as I woke up...... My morning routine was about to crumble, the display showed "High Input" and wouldn't fire whatsoever.....
Back to my nemesis I cried....!
Having emailed the distributor I purchased it from, they were happy for me to return and repair.
BUT.....!!!!
I decided to have a little look and took to some trusty WD40...
I strategically placed a few drops onto the usb input on the device, wiped gently with some faithful kitchen roll and repeated this very technical process (only fully qualified tissue operators need apply)....

I then went about my day, breathing in more vapour than oxygen as per usual but via my nemesis mech mod and a pocket rammed full of 18650's.....

The vapour angels above visited and bish bash bosh folks....... My Smok M80 Plus was back from the dead with the youthfulness of a newly born kangaroo!
I sit here, typing this message, in a cloud of smoke, with my Smok M80, hoping that the Angels may visit all your M80's too!!
Just invite them with the sweet smell of WD40 an a bit of bog roll...!

Vape On!!

hi, could simplify the steps on how to do that ? I have the same problem too
