Was loungin on the couch vaping away at this new carmel apple cart I got in the mail earlier when all of a sudden my vape stopped making any smoke at all but the light comes on solid. Changed to 2 other cartomizers and same thing. Nothing. Week old battery. Will V4L send out a replacement or do I gotta send this one back first and then wait?
Think one of my batteries just crapped out

Ya its back on the charge til I wake up and can confirm its dead before I email V4L.
Well just took it off an overnight charge and this thing is toast. Hopefully I'm not stuck with only one battery for too long. This could stink.
Its a week old battery. Was vaping like mad and then all of a sudden, nothing. Still nothing after a charge. Just the tip lights up and thats it.
sucks too ive been vaping almost for a year, and only ran completely out maybe 2x i misjudged this time so ill be on snus until it shows up, im not completely out ive got a ton of old flavors and carts just dont feel like messing with it 
I think the new policy is that they send a replacement right away but want the bad one returned, when you can, so they can do quality test. That way they can try to minimize that type of problem in the future.
Don't throw out the "bad" battery... sometimes they ask for them back.
I just got a replacement battery & inside was an RMA asking for the broken one back. Granted the battery they were replacing had actually broke apart & I sent pics with my e-mail, so they may want to see why it came apart. (I was changing a carto when it came apart) Brand new battery.. maybe a week or two old.

Ya I had no plan of tossing the battery since I was sure they would ask for an RMA.
Have you tried cleaning the battery? I find a sudden cut-off to happen with a dirty battery (electrically isolated, not enough current can pass through to fire the atomizer). Outside of that, yes, it's a failure.
It appears you gave us a whole lot of information - but not the all important: manual or automatic?

The switch or the FET in an auto can fail in such a way that no [significant] current passes through whilst the LED still illuminates. There's a handful of instances where any of several culprits may cause it. Over-filling or poor storage handling are the two biggies, but there are other things that can do it too.
Ya this thing has only seen pre filled carts and my storage case when not in use so we can rule those two out.
While we are on this subject:
I have a reg auto that I LOVE......last night it quit working...no LED, nothing.
When I plug it in to charge the batt doesn't blink and the charger turns red and stays red.
Is it a goner.....anything I can try. It is about 2 months old, but I rotate it with about 6 others and mods....so it should have some life left.
Thanks!
