All you'll need is a Tank atomiser and cart Roachie to go with the battery you've ordered - there's certainly no need to buy another kit, you'll have more chargers than you can shake a stick at!

Hmm never heard of this happening even after boil washing atties.
Maybe contact the seller as I don't think this should've happened. Could've potentially caused a fire or anything.
I started off with Riva 510 & have never had this problem & I've used a wide range of atties from different sellers. I've also used atties that I have boil washed.
However, as others have said, there's no reason to boil atties everyday. In fact, I wouldn't bother at all. I have boil washed atties & to be honest, overall, it hasn't been worth the effort.
I would just blow through the attie every night after use & also have at least 2 on the go to alternate & give each one a rest.

Roachie I managed to fry both a battery and charger because I didn't clean the ecig liquid off the battery contact before I put it on charge. I know make sure that I screw some kitchen roll up and clean around my battery contacts before putting them on charge or attaching an attie.
Bummer this happened hun x

In my first consignment of DSE901 within days I had an overheating battery which became to hot to hold and made the juice bubble out of the cart without drawing on it. LF replaced the battery and a couple of days later an attie died so I asked for and got a replacement for that too.
I didn't boil anything up though, except my lip where the juice bubbled out.

Late to the party, however... I and others have had a similar experience with similar gear - it was definitely the batteries at fault in those cases - they didn't deactivate when the button was released, the batteries got red hot and the only solution was to disconnect the atty with a thick cloth for protection I think that some of the cheaper copies of the Tornegorivas are prone to faulty buttons. Strange that atties would have exactly the same effect - must be a short, as already suggested ??? scylla

I can confirm Perpy's post - I've had precisely the same problem with Ego/Tornado clones and it's always the battery and never the atty. I never bother boiling atomizers, generally the odd blow-through will suffice and I'm generally pretty lucky with them (other than the LR ones that is). Fox
