In less than a week, I think I messed up my battery. RN4081 auto. I must have slightly overfilled the carto and I believe some got down into the battery. It will stay 'stuck' on for about 5 sec and then start flashing and turn itself off with no carto attached. It will not activate with the carto attached.

Any advice? Is it hopeless, or can I let it sit untouch to let it 'dry' out?

Leave it to a newbie, huh?

Flavor. Vapor. Quality. See why Johnson Creek is America's Smoke Juice.

I'm another newbie - so I don't really know, but I'd be too paranoid to use it. Also, adore your avatar.

Thank you

As far at the battery, I shook it out, wiped whatever I could and am letting it sit there to 'dry'.

The only thing I know is the next equipment I get is going to be a sealed battery. I'm really looking at the eGo's right now. There's just so many things out there and so many options and so little money to try them all...LOL

I adore my ego-T, I got some low nic juices and just puff on it all day when I'm home. I like my Volt for work, more discreet and easier to convince my still smoking friends to switch. 3 converts this week! I've been sending the to my local store though. The owner is awesome and lets people try out flavors and styles in the store to find what works for them.

I have tried several different PV's. You can't go wrong with an ego and a cartomizer. They will function when all else fails.

I would try shaking it out like a thermometer to get as much of the juice out as possible. If that didn't work perhaps a drop of alcohol and shake it out and let dry maybe?..

I did that a couple of times. There were a couple of 'dew drops' of liquid that came out that I wiped up. Not much at all, but probably just enough to gunk up the auto sensor. It's acting ok now, but I'm going to let it sit all day before really trying anything with it.

A Dr. Who/retard joke: My day is complete.

I asked a friend of mine, "If a Special Ed student is late for class, is it appropriate to call him tardy?" He says, (seriously, he really responded), "Yes, and if he does it again, you can call him re-tardy".
