Trouble when recharging.

ROCKMAN

Hi everyone
Buy a job lot of EVOD E-CIGS on ebay :rolleyes: case ,charger ,refill bottle and stick ,
All working well till I needed to recharge them ,
When I plug them in to re-charge red light comes on and the green light to tell me there charged also works but when I try to turn them back on they just will not come back on .
Am I doing something stupid or what ?
Button needs to be pressed a few times rapidly to get them on which I have tried, over and over, by no joy ,
Ps when I got them they took first charge out of case with no problems
Also it the same with the first 2 I have used .

Have I been burned ??:mad:

Any and all advice welcome.

My advice is to contact seller & tell him they are schit,if no reply within a few days,I would contact Paypal & they will sort it out for you.

Ego batteries (assuming they are this type) usually take 5 clicks on/off.
I find it hard to believe that you bought several and they are all broken, that would be just the worst luck!
Make sure you're clicking 5 times, it doesn't have to be mental fast, just 5 in a row.
Most of these batteries have flashing leds on the power buttons that tell you if they are off or on.
Finally make sure the evods are srewed together properly (just finger tight will do, don't force them) and the only other thing I can think of is that the wee connection pin on the bottom of the evod isn't hitting the power pin on the battery.
If you could post a alink to the advert you purchased from we could have a quick look and see if it was utter junk you bought, or if you've just been unlucky.

Thanks for the reply ,
know about 5 clicks and light code tried that , Got ten and the following has happen with the first two I have tried ,
First charge out of the box was grand worked fine ,the trouble starts when I have to recharge them ,They didn't seem to be coming back on after charge no light or nothing.
Update just discovered its the opposite to OP ,They are stuck ON the whole time, sending a charge the whole time but with no light to let you know. And will not let you turn it off
Here the item

Seller seems to be on the level 100% positive feedback. Give him a shout - you've nothing to lose

I see the seller has pulled his listing & cannot be contacted the usual way.This has happened to me a few times but they can't hide.

Didihno

Yeah that listing is gone, see if you can contact him, if you can't then open a paypal dispute.
I'm sorry your first experience has been a bad one, the stuff you bought was clearly garbage, or second hand broken items repackaged to make a quick buck as it were.

I hope you give vaping a proper go though, there are plenty of reputable stores here in Ireland and online Irish based vendors too.

If you're ever in Dublin City there are three great stores that I know of where you can go in and hold the devices and try many liquid flavours too. Outside the pale others can point you to where to go better then me though.

youdipstick

You will find his email address in the transaction with him in your paypal acc.Use that to contact him & threaten him with a dispute & you want a full refund,as Didihno says,works wonders most times.You have 45 days from date of sale to open a resolution dispute,but make sure you try to contact him,sometimes Paypal will ask for emails sent if they can't find any messages in your Ebay.

Not new to vaping ,have been off a 40 a day habit for nearly 2 years now thanks to vaping.
My first experience of trying to get products online ,Lesson learnt,
Will be sticking to the stores or reputable sources online in future.
Update ..4 of the cases have different module chargers and these 4 seem to be working fine so not a complete waste ,but I'll still going to contact paypal see were that gets me .
Anyway Thanks for your thoughts.

I'd be very wary of these batteries. If they're not behaving the way they should when you are charging them or turning them on or off, whose to say they won't go in to meltdown. If it were me I'd stop using them altogether. You wouldn't want one going nuclear whilst taking a drag out of one.
