ce4 battery issue

[kennedy]

So i have only used an e cig for 3 or 4 months but have had some issues along the way, therefore hoping this forum could help.

The current issue is with a ce4 battery that is charged, press the button and it works. Then you connect it to a tank, press the button and its light blinks a few times as it would if not charged. the contacts are all clean and the problem happens using a different tank.

I would really appreciate advice or if further info is needed.

Hi kennedy welcome to the forum.

Although I would expect Ego/Ce4 battery to last for around 400 charges at least, it looks for what you said, that it could be worn out already.
When batteries wear out, they will charge but not hold the charge. Usually though this would be progressive and you will have noticed the time getting shorter before each charge was needed. It wouldn't usually just go from working as expected to suddenly not working.
Do you have 2 batteries? and is it doing the same if you try the other battery?

Hello and kennedy

It probably would be easier to help you with a wee bit more info. But you could try this to see if it helps

Hiya kennedy and to AAEC.
I too reckon it may be that the pin needs raising, did you try it?

Hello & welcome kennedy

It really is worth trying to raise the pin as per Karma's  link

I seem to remember that some Ego batts would act in this way if the atty/clearo was causing a short..........
have you tried a different atty?

Failing that you might try lifting the pin, but it does sound as if there is a short when you screw your atty on.
