So there I was mooching around all the topics on this 'ere forum, puffing away on my new(ish) eGo-T...and nothing, no light on the switch, the lcd is blank, dead as a dodo???
I only took it off charge at lunchtime and its had hardly any use since, it was still showing all the bars in the lcd and working well...until just now!
I expect atomisers to burn out after a time, but three weeks for a battery seems a bit short lived, is there much you can fix on these things?
They seem pretty well sealed up so i guess that's the end of that, thankfully i've got another so its not the end of the world, but this must be unusual isn't it??

Vlad, As alansi has said, have you tried the 5 fast clicks ON/OFF as you maybe have switched it off by accident.

That was my first thought, but nope, nothing, 5 clicks is having no effect at all, if i put it on charge the green light stays on on the charger but again nothing from the battery switch or lcd, usually they both light up when on charge, but not anymore, zilch, zip, nada, it would appear to be an ex battery....so young too!

Vlad If it's only three weeks, i'm thinking you should be sending it back to the Vendor....most give at least a month warranty on batts (assuming it was a UK Vendor)

Thanks for the pointers folks, especially Karma for that link, but sadly no change it's still dead.
I've just emailled the supplier, not sure what warranty they put on these but fingers crossed its still covered.
Thanks again
Vlad
