VK Battery Issues

[zer0hz]

My friend got into the whole ecig thing with me just recently. He bought a battery and some other stuff to get him started off of me. The battery is a regular length auto, its a few months old, used for maybe a month or two.

Anyways, he dropped it and now it's acting funny. When sucking on it, it doesn't light the LED, but when you plug it into the PCC, it lights up like its being sucked on, then the cut off happens and it shuts off.

Is there any easy way to fix it? If not, I have no problem opening it and attempting to turn it into a manual

Nope! No fix for that. You can turn it into a manual but it's non-trivial. More going on there than meets the eye.

I did this to 2 of my batteries and if it is still charging (I know this is going to sound crazy but....) you can blow into the cartomizer and then suck and it works. Just make sure the carto is not totally full or it will drip down the side of the battery. These are my last resort batteries.

I'd say that everyone should chuck their auto's and go to manual anyway, so I might not be the best person to speak to, but the difference is night and day...maybe the God of Vaping was trying to tell you something

Is it charging? I have one batt doesn't lite up when I take a drag..It's my stealth batt! But it also doesn't lite when charging.

Yeah, the I tried fixing it by blowing into it a bit, and that fixed it for the time being but now its completely dead, wont respond to anything.
