Vapor Guy Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 Trying to do a build on a RDA and think I fried my heatvape 36W Defender. Still powers on, reading all my tank coils wrong and the voltage seems messed up. Is this fried or do I have a shot at correcting the problem. Lesson learned, now I just want my mod to work again
Vapor Guy Posted May 30, 2015 Author Posted May 30, 2015 Now it wont even power on, this sucks. Worst night ever and I can't even vape good now. So frustrated
Vapor Guy Posted May 30, 2015 Author Posted May 30, 2015 Tried to make a RDA The coil looked fine at first was reading at .4 and it fired fine did the other coil and it all went messed up from there. now it is reading crazy on my kanger and innokin tanks and cant get it to fire, it powered back on. I had to of fried it
Vapor Guy Posted May 30, 2015 Author Posted May 30, 2015 Any way to fix the issue like some sort of reset for these mods or did I just fry the board and game over
Compenstine Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 Did you try taking the battery out let it sit for for 5min then place the battery back in.... Like a reboot...?
Vapor Guy Posted May 30, 2015 Author Posted May 30, 2015 Did you try taking the battery out let it sit for for 5min then place the battery back in.... Like a reboot...?No it has two screws on the bottom I will give it a go
BirdDog Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 If you take it apart you void the warranty. The battery is built in according to the website. I don't think that is a good idea.
Compenstine Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) Like most electronics it has memory and taking the battery out should reset it if it is volatile memory like the ram on a computer. Edited May 30, 2015 by Compenstine Good point I did n't know it was built in.
Vapor Guy Posted May 30, 2015 Author Posted May 30, 2015 Got some sparks and a strange smell after taking out a screw this night is a mess
Vapor Guy Posted May 30, 2015 Author Posted May 30, 2015 Nothing yet, what is the proper way to dispose of this mess, do I bury it or what
Vapor Guy Posted May 30, 2015 Author Posted May 30, 2015 Pm me some picsWould have but, I just got done digging a deep hole for it and I put it to rest. Was my only mod so kinda sucked, Time to save and get a new one. live and learn I guess
Compenstine Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) Oh well. Just thought if the case was good I could use the parts . It really sucks to down be a favorite MOD let alone your only one. :/ Tam will be in to scold you for not having a back up though. Edited May 30, 2015 by Compenstine Tug and Tam 2
Tam Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 We don't know if this was his only mod but he has other back ups like an eGo battery or two so I'll hold off on the scolding. I may, however, be back to begin the chorus of the back up song if I'm wrong by giving him benefit of doubt. Bebop 1
BirdDog Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 Did your mod come with instructions? On the manufacturer website it has a manual, it specifically says not to tamper with the device because it will void the warranty. You could have contacted the store you bought it from and either had it repaired or replaced. Never open a mod that has an internal battery! Especially if you know the battery still has some charge left in it.That specific model is supposed to have a safety feature that shuts itself down when there is a short. From what you described, the mod did not shut down and reset. Instead it broke the micro processor inside.Sorry if this sounds like a scolding or I told you so. You learned a lesson and I am hoping that others will learn from this and not open sealed mods! Jeffb, Vapor Guy and Tam 3

Vapor Guy Posted May 30, 2015 Author Posted May 30, 2015 It was my only mod, however I do have a eGo One Battery, it powers my innokin I sub fine, but its not the same as having adjustable wattage. I will be good I just have to save and buy a new mod
