i ordered these batteries back 26/11/17 to use in smok alien (i vape 22w) and all sudden alien stopped working couple weeks ago but left batteries in mod. i l ive checked with a multimeter last night and now they're only reading as 0.6v.
i cant even imagine what theyd be like vaping them lower than 3v. anyone have any idea how this could have happened?

Mod still drawing power in short, even though it is not responding and the screen is dead the electronics will use some power as there in no mechanical off switch, but sounds like it drew more than normal idle power and probably trashed those batteries.

There are a few mods these days that will kill batteries if they are left on but not in use, Snowwolf Vfeng and Smoant Charon are 2 that come to mind, I normally leave most of mine in that state, and when I came back from a month in NZ I had 3 mods where the batteries had been killed outright.

theyve seemed to have increased to just over 1v for some reason now.

All the time they are below 2 V they are seriously and non-reversibly degrading, for a short time it may be worth trying to revive them, but when it's weeks at best they will be very sub par, for months not even worth thinking about.
