Tap the LED end of the battery on a solid, flat surface a few times (not too hard, just hard enough to give it a jolt) and see if the LED has turned off. If you can't get it un-stuck, you will need a new battery.ġ. There are several possible causes including a damaged battery and battery pressure switches sticking which can cause the microchip to jam on. DON'T use anything made from metal.īattery stays on (the LED is constantly glowing) A paper towel can be used to dry the area if necessary.įor stubborn grime a cocktail stick is ideal for the threaded grooves, taking care not to break it off inside the battery. Rubbing alcohol/surgical spirit on a Q tip/cotton bud is ideal.Ĭlean the outside of the connection/contact area and the inside too ensuring that you hold the battery upside down so gravity can take away any excess fluid.
Don't directly tap the button and especially not on a hard surface or you may damage it.Ī good clean contact between your e-cig battery and tank is essential for the best heat, vapour and flavour, so regular cleaning is essential (every couple of weeks or so for example). Try tapping the battery gently onto a paper towel if you have excess liquid around the button. You may find though that it starts to work again days later when it's been allowed to dry out. The LED button often still pushes but liquid can still put it out of working order. If you get liquid in the battery it can become stuck in the on or off position rendering it unusable. For 510 style tanks with a protruding screw, unscrew it a little. This is a fiddly job so take care not to force anything out of place. Take something like a wooden cocktail stick or piece of credit card (don't use anything metal on the battery) and gently pry the centre contact up on both the tank and the battery as best you can. If the battery is faulty, has been overused, misused, damaged or its lifetime exceed it should not be used again, however, if you have no reason to suspect any of these issues the problem could be a poor connection between the battery contact and the tank contact points, as products can vary slightly and also sometimes the points can get pushed in too far when screwing things together.Ħ. When a battery is nearing the end of its life, you will still be able to charge it but it won't necessarily be able to heat anything sufficiently.ĥ. If you still have the same problem, it's likely that the battery is the cause of your trouble but you won't know exactly what the problem with the battery is at this stage.Ĥ. If the battery charges, try attaching a different tank. Try to charge the battery (ensure your charger works on other compatible batteries otherwise your charger could be the problem).ģ. Place the battery in a room at a constant temperature for 24 hours (do not freeze or overheat).Ģ. If you're still stuck, the following options may help, however, depending on the issue you have, it's often better just to get a new battery to be on the safe side.ġ. Possible causes of a dead battery include contact problems, faulty battery, overuse, misuse, damage, environmental conditions and lifespan exceeded. These lithium-ion e-cig batteries are also very sensitive to environmental conditions due to the micro technology inside them. The average electronic cigarette battery has a typical lifetime of 300 charges and this lifespan is significantly reduced if batteries are frequently recharged and in constant use. The battery will let you know it's recognised that you've turned it on by flashing 3 times (this can vary and the amount of flashes will vary depending on the battery).
The easiest way to do this is to count one, two, three etc and ensure you click 5 separate times otherwise the battery may not realise you have clicked 5 times.
That means the clicks are quite fast and have to be very deliberate, and this is part of their design to stop them being turned on without you realising. Most standard electronic cigarette batteries are turned on and off with a 5 click function (5 rapid clicks within 2 seconds).
