Problem with kanger subox mod

[toots]

Ok, anyone else got this problem with their Kanger subox kit:

I have 2 kanger subox kits, 1 black & 1 white, the black one is working perfectly - both tank & mod, the white tank when placed on the black mod works perfectly, however if I put either the black or the white tank on the white mod that is when the problem starts.

First there seems to be a half second delay whilst drawing a puff on the tank which is annoying coz you're just taking in air to begin with. Then if you look at the battery level after each puff it goes down to 3 bars and back up to 4 with a full battery, goes down to 2 bars and back up to 3 whilst its running down and so on. The black mod does not do this, it simply displays the correct battery level and stays on that level. It also appears to run down the battery pretty quick, more so than the black mod.

And another thing, sometimes the white mod takes a few attempts to turn off, yesterday it took me 12 goes before the bloomin thing switched off

Both are genuine Kanger mods, I checked the serial numbers out on the kanger site.

Any suggestions on what to do, I'm baffled by it    Or anyone else have this problem?

Has it always done this toots ?

gm111 yes, I've only had it since Friday - took 6 weeks to get here too

I'd say there's a loose connection in there somewhere, I know this might be awkward but I'd contact the seller and swap for another toots

I'd say a loose connection and/or faulty switch.

Sorry.

Seems like they sold you a dud toots. Gonna cost ya postage! Still got Roly's credit card details? (not laughing really )

Always worth trying to clean the contacts (battery & 510) and battery with IPA or meths first.

I cleaned with a damp cloth, will try again with some 100% alcohol liquid I've got in the cupboard and see if that makes a difference.

More trouble than it's worth to send it back - I can live with it, providing it doesn't get any worse, will try cleaning the contacts as per my post above.

Haha, yeah his card is sitting right in front of me on my desk - he wouldn't notice

Hey and it's not the postage I'd be worried about, it's the flippin customs fees I've already paid for this one and would have to pay again for a replacement
