What is going on with my Mod?

[Archsage]

Ok, so the other day I brought my mod to a vape store and why the guy decided to start touching and fidling with it is beyond me, but he did. He over tightened the firing ring on my pegasus clone, vapetech. After cutting my hand up and realizing it was too tight, I unscrewed the connector, where the battery makes contact. I then fixed the firig screw. However, and bear with me because this is about to make zero sense, my batteries, both of my sony VTC5s, stopped working in my mod. Naturally I would assume it was my batteries, you know these things somehow happen, even if only a week or two old. I thought it was my battery until my girlfriend came over with her Manhattan mod. Threw those bad boy in there and sure enough they worked! "Maybe it's my mod", I thought. So I put her 18650 efest, 3.7v battery in my mod. To my utter surprise, it works. Her battery fires in my mod. So recap. Her battery fires in mine and hers. My rda works on hers and mine, my batteries ONLY WORK IN HERS. And her RDA works on hers and mine, but only if her battery is in my mod. Do I need a new mod? New batteries? What's up? How does this even happen?

Is her battery a button top? Is the bottom contact not making contact? I have a Pegasus but haven't played with it in a while.

Is there battery rattle when you install your batteries?

 

[Bunnykiller]

yes... you need to determine if the battery rattles in the mod when put together... you may have moved the +pin or the neg button pin out of reach of the battery

 

[Bunnykiller]

something else to consider.... the + pin in the top cap may be "floating" but stuck too far down for your atty to reach it when screwed on to it.... you may have to undo the top cap and tap the + pin inwards a tad ( with the atty off) to raise the + pin into position

Perhaps the guy actually noticed there's a lil strange with ur mod thus correcting it. As u where saying, it only stopped working only after u took it apart rite.

So it was working perfectly fine before that then, y not bring it back and let the shop guy hav a look again ... who knows it may be something u overlook?

There is battery rattle, with both batteries. We both have flat tops.
uhmm, I've checked both the floating pin and the connector at the bottom. Sometimes when i mess with it, it'll seem like it starts half firing or at like a really low voltage like it's craping out or just has horrible connection

As far as the + pin goes, I pulled it out and tightened my atty in there. Then I reinstalled my + pin till it was snug just connecting with my atty

There really is a reason that the mod has a 2 piece top pin. ADJUST IT!!!
Battery rattle is a BAD thing.

The inner nipple, as described in the video above was the one piece I never really fiddled with and it helped with my issue! Now battery wobble is at an all time low and the vape is instantaneous! Thank you guys so much! I knew I could come here for the help I needed!
