Chrome Lambo 4.0

[ian]

You have definately been given the best advice here Rodga,definately a bad connection.I have just fixed one of my Vamos today,every time i put an atty on it was squashing the centre pin down and giving me a LO reading and no vape.Basically,the silicone ring that sits around the centre pin had perished,i took a thicker rubber grommet from an old Boge cartomiser and fitted it around the centre pin.Rock solid contact again and my device is working perfectly.If your centre pin keeps squashing down then its worth checking the silicone ring as they are not the best quality in these cheaper mods.

been searching google for list off codes all i found so far
Short Circuit/Atomizer Protection: The Lambo 4.0 can recognize an atomizer with too low of a resistance for the current voltage setting and will drop the voltage to 3.7V to protect both the battery and atomizer. If the atomizer is too low or shorted out the LCD will display "F1" and the device will shut off until the issue is corrected.


also alot of discution about batery portected or not and fauls readings

Does it read F1 without a clearo or atty attached?

Yes it reads F1 all the time, with or without attys...

Have mailed the guys i brought it from to see if they could help but have had no answer as yet... charliesvapeshop.co.uk/#/shop/4571204874

In that case it is a short, probably the centre pin. Check the grommet is not split that insulates it in the connector.

To be honest am having real trouble unscrewing the top off to check inside, going to a mechanic mates tomorrow to see if he can help...

Just saw on another forum that "no contact" will give F1 as well

Agreed and you may have to use an adapter. Mine is very finicky about what I put on them without an adapter! Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, its bizarre. Everything works great with an adapter though!

Read on another forum somewhere that it is poor contact on the lambo, but works everytime if they use a 510 to 510 adapter on it  Maybe centre contact on the lambo pushed in a touch? and clean the centre contact on the lambo.

A bit off topic but I used to use the 510 to 510 adaptor on my lambo with my mini nova's due to the air holes but now use a B plinth instead as I think it look nicer. Also as Robbie says it is more than likely a short causing the F1 error.

might be worth me geting one of them plinths as i can see some dry juice down the threds in the corner can get in with que tip

Yes, me too, nothing would work without it, just recovered it from my "used to use" box lol and lookin at it I can see how it could short, the centre contact and the threading part are closer together on that than anything else I have, even a bit of swarf could do it.

[punisher]

would i use an a or b plinth with somthing like a pheniox atomiser or a vivi nova ?

Could you post a pic of the lambo punisher, there are a lot of different shapes and sizes of lambos out there. The top on mine was glued on, no thread at all.

Off to watch telly for an hour or two 8-|
