Vaporshark Dna 30 sticky fire button

[wrighty]

Got my Vaporshark Dna 30 a couple of week ago in a trade on the classies. Has worked perfect up until yesterday when the fire button started to stick when I fired it and would release if I pressed it a couple of times. It would also fire on it's own and when I pressed the button hard to release it would then go into lock mode. Possibly a bit of juice or dust clogging it ? or does it need a new button. This is my first regulated mod having used mech mods before. Any advice is welcome.

If the previous owner had an atty leak badly they can get very gumed up inside. You can get the button out very easily if you take the back off, but unfortunately they are a sealed unit so not advisable to take it apart.
You could however de solder the wires off the switch and then leave it for an overnight soak in some water followed by half an hour in the oven at a very low heat to dry it out.

Gutted your having problems Wrighty. I can honestly say i have had no leaking atties on it but it has been sat in the vape draw for the last 4 or 5 months not getting used.
Hope you get it sorted Wrighty.

Thanks for the advice @windows, have a mate who is good at this sort of thing will get him to try your suggestion.

No problems Roscopecotrain just one of those things. Electronics can fail at any time. Would like to get it fixed though as I love the mod. Not stopped using it since I got it. Don't think I can go back to a mechanical now. How you getting on with the carto kit.

Thank you Wrighty. Using both carto tanks but with cartos in them. Cant get the killer or the the other one to wick properly. Will need an evening on my own to have a play. Managed to break the glass tank as well lol. Serves me right for being heavy handed. Have one on order though so all good.

I do love an old school carto vape and these 2 tanks look amazing doing it.

Hey Roscopecotrain just to let you know my Vaporshark working as normal again !! Think it may have been the skin causing it to fire and switch off. Took the skin off and refitted it and all is well again. Love this mod. Any suggestions on what atty to use to get the best out of it.
