There was another thread about dead PM80 pod systems where 2 people posted their diagnosis and the solution.
The
first member's post claimed a fatigued or bent pin in the Micro USB port was the problem and provided a solution. He uploaded a video.
The
second member made 3 consecutive posts with videos showing his issue was due to the battery connection to the board inside the pod system breaks and causes it to short or stop working if not plugged into power supply. He posted 3 videos documenting the problem and the solution. However, this problem requires disassembling the device and doing some soldering so it's not a solution for everyone.
Ultimately Vaporesso (aka
@Vaporesso_Chelsea) should be providing you a new device.
Hope that helps.
