Weird Problem With Joyetech Teros

[niczgreat]

Just got a joyetech Teros to take to concerts etc...

Put the cartridge in let it soak. Then inhaled green light flashes slowly and no vape. Took out other cartridge filled it and same thing happens.

Went online checked joyetech that it's authentic then tried to RMA and couldn't find it on joyetech site.

Got frustrated and dropped it around 1 foot high on to Wood Desk. Starts to work perfectly.
Go figure.

Then put in the other cartridge same flashing light problem. Dropped it from a foot high and it works. Go double figure!

Any theories why it started working

Knocked some sense in it?

Smells to me like a bad solder joint with an intermittent connection. If I am correct It will eventually go bad. Sooner rather than later. I encourage you to further explore rma

On the myblu pod I believe there were Indents to hold the pod. Maybe they could be adjusted? It could be holding the contacts away until you dropped it perhaps.

Um I won't hazard a guess, but like that has been my EXACT opposite experience when I drop Joytech products, 100% of the time.

If I had a mod that I needed to work by dropping it I would return it for a warranty. Despite my love and passion concerning dropping vape gear by accident, I don't want to have a mod I NEED to drop for it to work, I mean, it takes all the fun out of accidentally dropping gear, then checking if it works frankly.

Although, if this starts to become everyone's experience with Joytech products, I'm buying more Ego One Mega tanks. LOL.

Well the funny thing is that after the 2nd drop. I switched the Pod again and it worked without dropping.

So far it's working fine.

I think that I'll just keep it, at $25.00 it's hardly worth RMA, also this is just my stealth vape not my daily vape. The Atopack Penguin is my daily and I've dropped it a million times and it keeps ticking!

Au contraire, I kind of like doing a Fonsie (Happy Days Show).

Well, I'm glad you enjoyed it. LOL. You know, I have durable gear these days period. IT KILLS me that the husband was able to drop his own ego mega tank and break the pin, and out of all my broken ones, he was able to successfully get one "working" and the coil reads. LOL.

If it is the last thing I do today (it may well be) I'm selling something so I can buy batteries and whatnot. I feel severely deficient in battery. I'm also gonna need a whole new one plus a squonkable like, atomizer for my squonk win, heaven forbid I be unprepared. I really want that Galaxy thing.

Tom, I just saw some Penguins in a clearance section somewhere so looks like they are getting more affordable..

 

[niczgreat]

I have two Penguins and alternate em.

I think they are the best darned unit on the market.

Lighweight, super reliable, no sputters and no leaks.

If it stops again and a foot drop don't do the trick, might want to drop it from 2 feet. Kinda the get a bigger hammer method for pods

Naa I'll just go to 6 feet and if that doesn't work will drop it off roof!

And they make those cute squawking noises. I hear they smell terrible though. Fish diet.

Might try one of those penguins. Good battery and 8.8ml. The non adjustable a/f might not be good tho??

I just got my Penguin the other day and the non adjustable air flow can be a bit of a concern to MTL vapors BUT the universal fix all, duct tape, made it 'adjustable'. And now it sounds less like a heart and lung machine when using it.
