hi everyone, mvp problem

[sharkeyfinn]

hi, im sharkeyfinn, i from england, it is a month today that i started vaping full time(nearly) i was a 30 a day rollup smoker,and im now down to perhaps 2 a day now. i didnt realise there was such a big community attached to vaping,and how much of a hobby it has become for me.

i bought an itaste mvp v2 a couple of weeks ago and for some reason,i cant use my aspire nautilus,protank 2 or iclear 16, but i can use my iclear 30b. it started with the iclear 16 last week then saturday the protank 2 and yesterday the nautilus, it is fully charged, but the green light seems to stay on for a long time and sort of locks me out of switching it off, any ideas guys/ cheers ;-) 

edit, by the way i can use the tanks on an ego vv battery

Hi sharkeyfinn and too AAEC.
I don't have a MVP so can't help, sorry, but plenty here do so i'm sure someone will be along shortly to help. Sit tight

Might be the centre pin on the mvp not connecting with the bottom of the coils. Try and lever it up slightly and try again failing that it could be a short but having one of the tanks working would seem to indicate it's the pin if it's been depressed by screwing an atty on too tight.

thanks for the tip, but sadly have tried that,:-(  its just so weird that three tanks wont work but one will,and weirder that they all work on an ego

[dalealan]

That's the only thing I can think of apart from if they had sub ohm coils in which is highly doubtful weird one. If it was all the tanks I'd think short or pin issue but with one working that's just odd. Have you tried swearing at it? Sometimes helps

And and now I'm clutching at straws but you could also try adjusting the wattage and or voltage down but I'm still thinking the head or a short. Is it sitting central?

Welcome to the forum. sharkeyfinn

Just an off chance, is the mvp going through it's "cleaning cycle"? I seem to recall some folks having a similar problem. just clear the Puff Counter and retry. Thats about all I can think of, apart from a non conectivity issue with your other attys.

[Clivia]

contact the seller - because all what you described looks something is not right - and it's too soon for that

[hijack]

It really sounds like a contact issue. Try pulling out the pin slightly on the atty, like below.


If this works, then the center pin on the MVP has been pushed down slightly.

Don't mess around with MVP too much, if it is faulty and you damage it further, the vendor may not exchange it for a good one.

Just contact the vendor and he should swap it for another.

Hi sharkeyfinn and welcome:)

Hi sharkeyfinn. welcome to the friendliest vaping forum you will find. I have four Mvp's and you will experience at sometime, the grommet surrounding the contact pin splitting and causing a short. This is a relatively easy fix if you have a soldering iron. However, I suspect as you have only had it a couple of weeks that there is a manufacturing defect and as Clivia has stated your first port of call should be the vendor and see what they say. If you don't get any joy there, give me a shout back and don't worry, we'll get to the bottom of it one way or another. If you still have the décor ring that came with MVP, this can be used to cure contact problems too.

 A very BIG welcome to AAEC sharkeyfinn - enjoy

Hi and welcome to the forum.


Good advice as been offered above. If non of that works then I would contact the vendor as there very well maybe a fault with the mvp. As it's brand new y o u should not really be having any trouble like that with it.

Good.luck and I hope you get it sorted soon.
