The first time it happened, I have no idea what went wrong.
This time I had a Cyclone v2 on top, that might have shorted it or something![]()
Dang just ordered one from health cabin for $103 shipped.
Whats V3? I thought there were only 2 versions.
Time to contact the vendor you got it from and get a new one. A good vendor will send you a new one free of charge.
Agreed, sorry to hear Random. I'm sure some of the leftover earlier versions will be going for close to $50 soon, particularly as the new zmax will be coming.
Random, just a thought...are you experiencing any juice leaks that may somehow be getting into your vmax? I had a close call the other night with just that situation but caught it in time. One of my phoenix bc's decided to dump as I was screwing it off and the juice started running right down a line heading to the power button. If it leaks through there or the led screen it might cause a problem.
Not sure if any juice got in it, but I don't think so (There didn't seem to be any juice anywhere on it)
The chip doesn't seem to have been effected either. Only thing that seem to have gone bad is the connector.
I can still navigate the menu, the display is still working, but as soon as I press fire, I just get 123,456,789 on the display
When I look inside it, the wires from the chip to the connector looks like they have melted (and the tube smells like burned plastic)
Do any of you vmax experts know of a vendor carrying the vmax with both the ego connection and the blue led? Thanks
Allready been in contact with the vendor
They responded less than an hour after I emailed them (wasn't expecting that on a sunday)
They told me to send it back, and then they would send me a vmax V4 instead![]()
I too have the ORIGINAL V1's in MINT condition both in the Black and Silver Beasts and have had NOT one problem with mine!Just glad to hear your vendor is coming thru for you. It is indeed a hassle but here's hoping #3 is the charm. A properly functioning vmax is tough to give up; I'd miss mine terribly. That's why I will soon have 3 and when the older versions get to $50 I'll pick up a 4th as a spare
V1 update: Still works like a charm and I've put this thing through everything except a washing machine. Even the black finish still looks great except for the wear around where the battery cap makes contact on the body. Alas, as I predicted long ago however, the battery cap threads are becoming more and more stripped despite my best efforts to be careful and maintain them with lube. I think there are now only 2 threads holding the battery cap on. One day the threads will simply not catch rendering the device useless. It will be a shame as the rest of the unit is still 100% functional. Wondering if there is a way to fix this. Ideas?
