So sad...

[the_antisheep]

Well, I swore I'd never go back to analog, because I didn't want my car to smell (or me for that matter), but my switch wasn't in the cards (yet). My GreenCig that I have had for a little under a week and was supposed to carry me through until my eGo came in kicked the bucket.

The green light flashes whenever I try to use it, and the charger always has a red light when I try to charge it. I'm sure the battery is fried. So replace it, it has a 1 year warranty, right? Ironically I bought some carts this morning, but the lady tells me the only woman who works in the store that can deal with this is only in during the weekdays from 8am to 3:30pm on the weekdays.

Long story short, $20 for carts I can't use, $18 for three packs of analogs I didn't want to buy

Oh well, guess I will try again when my cignot order comes in...

Ah that sucks the big one. Sorry to hear of your bad luck, but hey you'll be even more excited to get your new PV and try it out.

Absolutely... Just hoping this minor setback doesn't reignite a 13 year addiction.

Don't throw your old stuff away... it sounds like the only thing going on is that the charger isn't working. You may be able to get it replaced for free.

The cartos and battery may fit something else you buy (they are semi-compatible with KR8's, but you may need an adapter).

If you're at all interested in making some kind of mod one day, the battery has a connector that you can use. Also, you might run into someone who wants the parts for similar reasons. You could even post them in the Classified or Mod sections here at ECF, and give or sell them to someone (Of course, you would want to make it very clear that it's broken).

have you tried cleaning the threads on the charger and the battery..

also i have a 510 charger that i need to balance the charger up in the air on top of the battery for it charge

Here is the bright side. You have probably been smoking for quite some time and then you started to vape and found you enjoy it. Now you know it is not impossible to quit, therefore once you get your new order from cignot you can start vaping again, besides smoking cigarettes have not killed you yet. Dont be so hard on yourself. GL and Hope this helps.

I spoke to the store owner today, and she said that it was under warranty for one year. They know little to nothing about the product, so they replaced the charger, want me to charge it overnight, and then they will replace the battery.

It would be nice if the carts were useful for something... I have so many of them, it's absurd!

I tried cleaning the threads on the carts, the charger, and the battery with no results. When plugged in, the end is supposed to blink 3x to indicate it is starting it's charge, but it won't even do that.

Thanks, yes, I can definitely quit this awful habit. Since having to switch back to my analogs, I have noticed a few side affects from the product that I had forgotten I had all these years. My ears started hurting (like they were plugged or something), my sinuses felt like crap, and my lungs feel like there's a 10 lb brick in them.

Screw the FDA, if vaping removes these horrific side affects, then tell me how I am better off with the analog? I think the proof is in your body's reactions to the two products (or lack of reaction).

Don’t beat yourself up to bad, most people go through several attempts at quitting no matter which way go. The good news is that you know e-cigs will work for you! Good luck with your next go!

Dude don't beat yourself up over this - every bad habit takes a while to change. It took me 1 year to quit of analogs completely. What worked for me was ENDLESS vaping most of my day. I gradually cut cigs out completely and now I have even cut down on vaping.
