E leaf issues! I stick 50 died.

[Steamin Demon]

So I couldn't understand why a lot of folks bash the Eleaf I stick because mine had worked so wonderfully since it was new.
So I charged it up and parked it on the shelf because I got a new ipv4 and wanted to try it out.
About two weeks later I tried to fire it up so a friend could borrow it and the damn thing won't turn on ....nothing! I tried plugging it in with several chargers and I get no digital read out, no signs of power any where.
The only thing I can figure is it has grown jealous of the IPV and has told me to piss off.
My Sigelei never treated me like this!
Any ideas? Besides backing over it with a truck.
I don't really use it but I have some broke ass friends that might find it useful.
Thanksin advance for any constructive info.

plug it in to a charger for a few hours.;

The battery could be depleted and not even have enough charge to power up the screen.

Try pushing the power button 5 times.

all i got

It's plugged in now well see what happens. It was fully charged, then shut off before I stored it in a temp controlled environment. Did the five button think like a hundred times. Can the batteries self drain like that from just sitting two weeks?
I've never let it sit that long so maybe?

Just out of curiosity, how long have you had it?

About three months

Hmm..usually if you make it past about 3 weeks, you have "one of the good ones". I had one that lasted about 3 days. Just got refunded and bought something else. Did you maybe leave a tank on it? I've heard reports of eliquid getting down through the 510 and frying them that way. Other than that...no idea. Shame though, that could have been the PERFECT mod if they had taken time to do QA and designed the damn thing correctly.

sorry to hear this. it seems they are rather inconsistent when it comes to QC. i had a 30w that the screen burned out after 2 weeks. it still fired, but screen would not come on so you could not see what you're firing at. sent it back and bumped up to the 50w. its been working great for me since April.

Nope no tank on it, no liquid in the 510. And it was working perfectly before the last time it was turned off.

Yeah mine just started acting up tonight it says low power when fully charged it will work if it's plugged in though After reading the posts about this device I have just been waiting for it to fail.

I must have one of the good ones. It is about 6 months old now and going strong. I suppose I should start saving for a single 18650 cell replacement for it now, as I have a few non married 25r's.

What will happen when you plug it in with chargers?

I think it needs to be activated sometimes.

 

[Steamin Demon]

I took the piece of crap apart. Batteries tested good and charged.
Power and ground check out, and power to the switch is good.
Guessing the switch or any of the tiny baord components are shot.
I flushed down the toilet and am replacing it with the new sig 75, or the new ipv4 120 watt.

Mine lasted about 3 weeks. At full charge, it'll hit great 5 or 6 times, then starts misfiring. Gets weaker and weaker after that. So grateful for my dependable Sigelei!
