Not really sure what a "buck naked" vape is...but, vaping hardware being a rather un-regulated industry, I always drifted towards figuring out what is well spoken of for my wants.

What are you looking for in a mod? Are you just wanting to get away from smoking or do you want clouds that reach a mile?

There are sub-forums here. Mind you, this whole forum leans to the hobbyists side. They tend to be chatty.

Take the atomizer off and try pressing the button. Does it still keep flashing? If so, your pin is probably pushed down in the connector. Use a paper clip or something to gently pull up on that pin in the center of the connector. If it only does it when the atomizer is attached, then your coil has probably gone bad. Try putting a new one in.

I'm afraid I have little knowledge of your device (other than they sometimes fail, they aren't exactly robust). You are getting good advice, so I will merely say, welcome to ECF and I hope you get a satisfactory resolution. It can be frustrating to purchase something that isn't working well out of the gate. It might be worthwhile to watch a few reviews/demos of your product on youtube to help you see if you can isolate the problem.

If all else fails, you can warranty the device, if it's new and get a replacement. I might also consider the possibility if you decide that you like vaping and want to make it your primary "thing" instead of smoking, that you look into some different setups that will offer more options, power, and a different vaping experience. It's good to have a backup mod anyway, but most certainly if you want to use this type of device. They can be a great way to transition into vaping, but battery life is typically poor and they are usually considered one of the weaker vape delivery devices.

I hope you get it working well for you! Welcome :)

Welcome and glad you joined.
I can see you tried several solutions, hang in there.
Could contact:
local B&M Vape Shop (Visit) -----Might be simple.
Vendor who sold it ---see if they will repair or replace or advise (any authorized distributor).
Manufacturer contact ---see if they will repair or replace or advise.
Definitely worth a look at:
