Yep that's what I'm using, got it plugged into a adapter that plugs into the mains. I will go knock a few friends up,  see if I can use a laptop. I live right out in the sticks though, in a tiny village. All farmers, lol, a lot of the people I know think having a mobile phone is high-end technology  , . I'm sure someone has a computer i can hijack for a while though. |

Try charging via usb, my partners Riva said they were charged when using mains but they was not, tried usb and they charged properly..worked for her, might work for you. I only have an iPad and there's no USB port? Don't have any adapter- type thingy to convert it either. ??? |

Have you thought about ordering a new charger while you are at it. I believe they dont cost much and always handy to have a spare. I'm sure 1 of my chargers doesn't work properly. Do you think it may be the charger? It seems to be charging though, the light is red then goes green? What's odd though is that the light on the battery doesn't flicker when screwing it to the carto or clears, like it used to. On either battery. Almost as if the connection isn't good? I've just gone on Vapeescape to try order a new battery and new clearly ( rainbow type) but I wanted a different colour battery, the embossed one, and they don't do it in the larger battery size, and the purple clearl I wanted seems out of stock ( I know I could get the ordinary clearo but I like the others ) so I may have to go elsewhere. It just seems strange that both batteries are gone wonky? |

Thanks Romlee. I've done all that (except the clearo washout, it doesn't seem to be that as it doesn't work with the carto either) but still nothing? |

It's happening again, and is even worse with the carto? ??? I get a horrible taste with the carto too.
I've cleaned all around both batteries, and the connections on the charger. It seems to be charging ok, the lights do what they are supposed to, but I've noticed that once its charged and I screw in the clearo/carto, the button doesn't flash a few times like it used to whan screwing it in.
I guess all I can do now is order a new battery and panic till it comes.
I just don't understand why both are behaving in this way?

Carto working great, thanks again all. Maybe it's the clearly that's causing it, so I'm a carto-girl from now on  ) |

A couple of suggestions Bebe, some of which you've tried . . . Has the clearomiser died? How long have you had it, they don't last forever. Try raising the centre pin a bit higher - you've tried that. Try an alternative cartomiser from the kit, see if that works with your battery. Does the battery light flash eratically? Edit to say: Too late me, you're sorted. Lol, thanks for all the suggestions I'm KIND of sorted... There was a bit of vape, suddenly? ??? Almost like it should be? Maybe it was a bit wet or something? Ooooh, just had a real vape then!! And another!!!, What do you all think was the problem? Should I buy more batteries, just incase? Phew!  Don't want to panic like that again, lol. |

Yay, so pleased you are sorted. I couldn't help but was watching your thread hoping someone with more experience would be around Isn't it great on here? I'm not sorted though, although I'm sure I will be soon. |

OK, emergency, but don;t panic, work through it. The 1st 2 questions to ask. Are you using the clearo that came with the kit ? Does a cartomiser work ? Yes, to the first question, no to the second  Thanks for such a fast reply, this place is great |

Omg, I'm riva-less !! . It's not working! I've just plugged the battery in to charge and put on the other charged battery, and nothing! No Vape, just a mouthfull of juice, so I recalled reading about the centre pin in the battery getting stuck, and prized it back up a bit, which slightly worked ( small bit of vape for a second or two), but then it stopped again! Tried to prize the centre pin up again, noticed there was juice actually on the pin so cleaned it a bit and started again, but now nothing at all! :-[ So I changed the battery over to the one that was charging, and still nothing? Ok so the battery may not have been charged enough, but the fully charged one isn't working either, so what am I doing wrong? Hope someone can help me, and thanks in advance if you can, incase I don't manage to wrestle the iPad off my daughter again tonight >  and have to go all night without being able to reply to any posts. But I'm in a huge panic, this is the first day I haven't had ANY roll-ups, and have none in the house now! Worst day for this to happen!! (and I have a hangover too)  |
