e-square advice please

[Deleted]

Looks like I have a problem with my e-square but would like to confirm before contacting the vendor. Having used it, albeit not exclusively for the last four days, I've noticed the battery indicator always reads full. I removed the batteries (brand new Sammy 25r's) and tested them. One read 3.69v the other 3.7v. On replacing the batteries the battery indicator registered about half. As soon as the fire button is pressed the battery indicator reads full. Any advice welcome.

There is a common issue with the large screen dna40 and the battery meter jumping around striker42.
All 3 of mine do it. They'll read low then jump up after I've taken a puff.

Cheers drunkenbum, mine will be going back then.

I'm not sure it's a fixable thing. I think it's a glitch with the chip.
Maybe @windows or VapingBad may know more about it

Not seen that, if the reading went down I could understand, but not up to full.

Mine jump up to what they should be after a puff. When I wake them up the battery meter will show lower than it should.
Not a major issue and i've got used to it but all 3 of my large screen dna 40's do it. Phil busardo mentioned it in one of his videos as being a common glitch with them

Even when I wake mine up drunkenbum, the battery indicator still registers full. The only time it drops is when the batteries are removed then refitted.

I think its sometimes a rested battery can give a false reading until some current is drawn, though i could be wrong

My epetites just done the same thing striker42, never noticed it happening before, very weird

[phatfil]

mine (dna 40) will read higher on waking up but will read lower after a puff too, but as its a single battery mod its not got a number of potential batteries try different batteries if you can?

edit ok scrub that ,, u have tried it,,

all my my DNAs battery meters jump around a bit but that's a bit too erratic... why you get an "F" with no temp numbers?

[glen]

I've just had a read up on a few forums and it appears to a common occurrence, someone suggested taking the battery in a nd out a few times, ive just tried it and its working as the battery indicator now shows the battery has been used and not full as before

Thanks glen but having tried that I'm still in the same position. Tried another pair of batteries and the same happens. Also, tried it using a single battery in both bays but that ended up with the same result. I could accept it, if it appeared inaccurate to a degree, but this is just continually indicating that the batteries are fully charged after a few days of continued use.
