My fire button is starting to feel a bit tired and has lost some of it's positivity, I'm having to press it with a slight upward slide of my thumb.
With a 'normal' press it feels sticky and has failed to fire a few times, and stuck on for a second or two after release twice

Mine does this on occasion - only very occasionally - one or two vapes over a day of hundreds but annoying nevertheless.  I don't think its a usage thing as I've had mine for a month now and its being doing it since new

Yes and that was mentioned by PB one min it's vaping as normal the next it's gone.

My DNA30 is a bugger for this too - an accurate battery meter is clearly harder then you might think

Thanks for that dreamylittledream

Had to do it... sorry

Thanks again everyone, and I've now seen it on the instructions (got stronger reading glasses)... someone had to ask, and it prevented anyone else from being a prat... or anyone suffering in silence.

I've now put a mark on the whisky bottle, and when it hits that level, I'm going to switch off the computer, to prevent a recurrence.

Just stop your devices from drinking, that'll solve it, and bonus is more for you

I don't have a problem with drinking attys, mine do tend to urinate though. Stupid things. Wick too long, atty not properly screwed together, filling it the wrong way (e.g. Kayfun, top filling often fails, use the hole Luke!). I am liking these 3 atomisers I have at the moment for that though : Taifun (LOVE this thing), unscrew it and filler up, as long as the wick isn't protruding out of the top it's leak free. Kayfun 3 (the one with side hole for filling) : leaked like a sieve until doofus here figured that turning it upside down while filling is the trick. And... the Kanger (oo) Turbo. Unscrew, fill, rescrew, hassle free vaping and clouds out the wazzoo

Raffles my istick was on charge for approx 2 hours 30 mins & has been fine since charging although the battery meter seems to be going down quicker than before its 1st charge, i have another one on order too.

Had same problem just now, refilling protank 3, it also urinated on hand, luckily had just finished rewicking and had blow torch next to me, so problem solved just lit and turned it on hand, not a bad vape, but maybe bit of a burnt taste, but no juice wasted.
Anyway might not reply now as have to go to hospital due to pains in hand, think I got wire splinter or something !!!!

PS kids dont try this at home.

Apologies if this has been brought up in other threads has anyone else had problems using protank 2 when I fit it it shows no atomiser on the screen and I get the same with using the ego adapter when using mini protank 3 it works fine using mini nautilus also when I charge it should it shut down when fully charged

[chykensa]

nick777 - regards your Protank 2; you'll probably find on inspection that the centre pin of the atomiser is slightly recessed, therefore not making good contact with the pin on the iStick.
With a needle gently prise down the centre pin of the head (this can be done with it screwed into the PT2), and if you pull it out only a couple of mm, this should ensure that you get contact enough to vape.
Can't help with the adapter problem, although you could try gently working the centrepin of the iStick up using a small flathead screwdriver or fine tweezers. Again, be very careful and gentle and lifting the pin should provide enough height for contact.
Hope this helps!

Thanks for the swift info will give it a try later today

If you check out Todds review on you tube he mentions how pants the enclosed adapter is. He comment's that its just been made wrong.

[mart166]

I've had problems in the past with adaptors, one I bought in hurry in UK and cost me a nice few quid pushed the pins down on every mod it was used on, I have two now, one I use on my voltmeter and the other on my pipe, both cheap as chips ones from FT and do the job they designed for.

If its the istick then the from previous answers it needs the battery charged up

From the user manual:

Low-voltage protection. When the voltage of the battery is below 3.3v the oled screen will reflect "lock"

Also;

Unlock the low-voltage protection. When the voltage is above 3.65v the the low-voltage protection will be unlocked
